1, summer health care methods
1, drink plenty of water
Drink seven or eight cups of boiled water every day, and you can add some honey to the water. In summer, people's physical energy consumption is particularly fast, and honey can quickly replenish the energy needed by the human body. Water is an indispensable part of human body. Organs, muscles, blood, hair, bones and teeth all contain water, and water loss will be more in summer. If you don't replenish water in time, it will seriously affect your health, make your skin dry, increase wrinkles and accelerate human aging. Such as honey water, mineral water, herbal tea, milk and apple juice are all ideal thirst-quenching drinks.
Step 2 tonify yang
"Huangdi Neijing Suwen Siqi Tiaoling" said: "Summer and March are called beautiful months, and everything is gorgeous. Go to bed at night and get up early, and never tire of it for a hundred days, which makes Chi angry, makes Huaying put on a show and vent his anger. If you love the outside, this summer's gas should be the way to keep fit. " In hot summer, many people will suffer from air conditioning disease. People turn on the air conditioner all day long, and the temperature difference between indoor and outdoor can reach more than ten degrees. In addition, a large number of cold drinks with ice will definitely hurt Yang. Therefore, we should pay attention to the living environment not to be too humid, not to eat too much frozen and cold food, not to adjust the air conditioning temperature too low at night, preferably above 26 degrees, and not to spend the night in the open air and cold places.
3, dietary supplements
In the aspect of diet nourishing, the principle of nourishing and strengthening the spleen, removing summer heat and removing dampness is adopted in hot days. Fat, sweet and hot products should not be eaten, and light and nourishing food should be chosen. Sweet, cool and moist foods: wheat, sorghum, highland barley, tofu, white lentils, black sesame seeds, potatoes, Chinese cabbage, lettuce, asparagus, spinach, wax gourd and watermelon. Foods for invigorating spleen and stomach, nourishing yin and invigorating qi: spinach, lotus root, water bamboo, tomatoes, carrots, eggs, apples, milk, grapes, lotus seeds, mulberries, clams, geese, herring, crucian carp, silver carp and barley flour. Foods for clearing away heat and dampness, clearing away heat and toxic materials: mung bean, broad bean, adzuki bean, soybean, raw radish, eggplant, Chinese cabbage, celery, water chestnut, coix seed, watermelon, wax gourd, loofah, cucumber, wax gourd, bitter gourd, chrysanthemum, lotus leaf and tea.
Step 4 supplement potassium
Sweating more in summer, and more potassium ions are lost with sweat, leading to hypokalemia, which will cause fatigue, dizziness, headache, loss of appetite and other symptoms. The most effective way to prevent potassium deficiency in hot weather is to eat more foods containing potassium. Fresh vegetables and fruits contain more potassium, so you can eat more strawberries, apricots, lychees, peaches and plums. Vegetables include green onions, celery, edamame, etc., and are also rich in potassium. Tea also contains more potassium. Drinking more tea in hot weather can relieve summer heat and supplement potassium, killing two birds with one stone.
Step 5 supplement salt and vitamins
In summer, the human body sweats a lot, and sodium chloride loses a lot. Pay attention to supplementing salt while replenishing water. Drink some salty boiled water every day to keep the acid-base balance and osmotic pressure in the body relatively stable. Nutritionists also suggest that it is best to supplement vitamin B 1, vitamin B2 2 mg and calcium 1 g every day in high temperature season, which can reduce the consumption of sugar and tissue protein in the body and is beneficial to human health. Therefore, we should eat more foods rich in the above nutrients in summer, such as watermelon, cucumber, tomato, beans and their products, animal liver, shrimp skin and so on. You can also drink some juice.
Step 6 wear light clothes
Dark clothes will absorb sunlight and make people's body temperature rise and dry; At the same time, mosquitoes have the habit of blackening, and dark colors are easy to attract mosquitoes, especially black.
7. Happiness comes from "bitterness"
Alkaloids contained in bitter food have pharmacological effects such as relieving summer heat, promoting blood circulation and relaxing blood vessels. Eating some bitter food in hot weather can not only clear the heart, relieve annoyance and refresh the mind, but also stimulate the appetite, strengthen the spleen and benefit the stomach. Bitter gourd: Take its immature fruit as a dish. The mature pulp can be eaten raw, cold, fried and grilled fish. It is fresh and refreshing and has a unique flavor. Bitter gourd has the effects of stimulating appetite, promoting digestion, clearing away heat and pathogenic factors, eliminating fatigue, clearing away heart fire and improving eyesight. In addition, bitter foods such as bitter vegetables, tea, coffee, etc. can also be selected as appropriate. It should be noted that eating bitter food should not be excessive, otherwise it may cause nausea, vomiting and other symptoms.
8. Pay attention to itchy skin
When traveling in summer, when the skin is itchy and dry due to the sun, you can apply a small amount of ointment such as Fusong, do not burn with hot water, and do not wash with alkaline soap to avoid irritating the skin and aggravating the symptoms.
2, summer sun protection instructions
1, there is strong ultraviolet light in cool wind: ultraviolet light will not generate heat. For example, when people climb a mountain, the higher they climb, the cooler the mountain wind will be, but the stronger the ultraviolet rays are at this time. Every upward 1000 meters, the ultraviolet ray is enhanced 10%. The same is true in the sea. The sea breeze makes you feel cool, but at this time, ultraviolet rays often reach a very strong level. In addition, 90% of ultraviolet rays can penetrate clouds, and clouds are not the best killer of ultraviolet rays.
2. T-shirt has better sunscreen effect: a simple T-shirt is better than any sunscreen, and a small straw hat is also very useful. If you wear sunscreen with an SPF of 30, you don't have to worry about how your whitening plan will be affected.
3. More protection is needed after tanning: skin thickening and melanin production are manifestations of skin self-protection, but melanin can only partially absorb ultraviolet B, but has no function of absorbing ultraviolet A, so it is essential to create an isolation barrier between sunlight and skin when outdoors. It is wrong to think that once the skin is tanned, it doesn't need sun protection.
4. Avoid red and black food: According to nutritionists, if you use red food and then bask in the sun, your skin will get tanned more easily. Therefore, we should try to avoid eating red food such as papaya before sun exposure. In addition, black food such as soy sauce, black vinegar, coffee and so on. Containing more melanin, it is easy to cause pigmentation of the skin, so it is easy to make the skin black.
5, vitamin C supplementation: As we all know, the whitening effect of vitamin C is more obvious. Therefore, if you want to whiten, a certain degree of internal adjustment is also essential. When eating at ordinary times, try to eat foods rich in vitamin C, such as tomatoes, cucumbers, potatoes, carrots, spinach, milk, seafood and so on. Keep skin healthy, beautiful and naturally whitening.
