How much water does a person drink every day? What are the benefits of soaking feet in hot water? Thank god, help me.
1 The amount of water varies from person to person. Dr. Yong Cheng, head of the Department of Nephrology, Shenzhen Second People's Hospital, told the reporter that, generally speaking, the amount of water people drink every day should at least be balanced with the water consumption in their bodies. The amount of urine excreted by human body in one day is about 1 1,500ml, and the total water consumption is about 2,500ml, while the water that human body can metabolize and replenish from food and body is only about 1 1,000ml, so normal people need to drink at least 1 1,500ml of water every day, about 8,000ml. Usually, how much water each person needs to drink varies according to the activity, environment and even the weather. Drinking more water for normal people will not have much impact on the body, but it may lead to increased urination and inconvenient life. However, for some special people, we must pay special attention to the amount of drinking water. For example, patients with edema, heart failure and renal failure should not drink too much water, because drinking too much water will increase the burden on the heart and kidneys and easily lead to aggravation of the disease. For patients with heatstroke, cystitis, constipation, dry skin and other diseases, drinking plenty of water can play a certain role in relieving the disease. In addition, people should drink more water when they have a cold and fever, because rising body temperature will cause water loss. Drinking more water can promote body heat dissipation and help patients recover. Pregnant women and people who exercise a lot consume a lot of water and should drink more water. In the health care theory of traditional Chinese medicine, "foot massage all year round: washing feet in spring, opening the sun, setting;" Washing feet in summer can dispel summer heat; Wash feet in autumn, moisten lungs and intestines; The record of "Tian Dan washes his feet in winter and burns wet" is an image summary of the role of traditional Chinese medicine pedicure. Modern scientific research shows that people's feet have reflex zones (acupoints) corresponding to various zang-fu organs. Stimulating these reflex zones can promote human blood circulation, regulate endocrine system, enhance the function of human organs, and achieve the self-care effect of preventing and treating diseases. Editor's Note: As the saying goes, "It is not surprising that there is water in the bag in the morning and water before going to bed. It is healthy and long-lived. " The water in your bag means drinking water in the morning, and the water in your bag means washing your feet before going to bed. Drinking water in the morning and washing feet before going to bed are all good health care methods. Please see-drink water in the morning and soak your feet at night >> There is an old saying in China: "It is better to take tonic when washing your feet with hot water." If you soak your feet for 15 minutes every day, it can play a health care role. If you soak your feet in hot water at about 40 degrees Celsius, your headache will be obviously relieved after about 15 ~ 20 minutes. This is because the blood vessels in both feet dilate and blood flows from head to foot, which can relatively reduce brain congestion and thus relieve headaches. For the headache caused by cold and fever, soaking feet with hot water can also help reduce the fever. If you can massage Yongquan point while soaking your feet and press Taichong point on the back of your big toe, it will also help lower your blood pressure. Moreover, hot water soaking feet has a wide range of applications, including rheumatism, spleen and stomach diseases, insomnia, headache, cold, paraplegia, brain injury, stroke, lumbar disc herniation, nephropathy, diabetes and other systemic diseases, as well as rehabilitation after a serious illness. Therefore, insisting on scientific pedicure, especially for alleviating all kinds of occupational diseases that modern urbanites are prone to, can often get twice the result with half the effort.
