IN THIS ARTICLE: Spring warms bloom, and everything revives. This season is best for sunbathing. So what are the benefits of sunbathing?

Sunbathing in spring is healthier. "Naked sunbathing" has many benefits for preventing diseases.

1, sunbathing can prevent depression.

Experts point out that spring is the season of frequent depression, and experts suggest that people can often go outdoors to bask in the sun, which is of great benefit to dispel depression. Experts say that sunlight will cause a series of physiological changes, such as the thermal effect of infrared rays will dilate capillaries and accelerate blood circulation; Ultraviolet rays can oxidize melanin, increase vitamin D and histamine in skin, increase gastric acid secretion, and increase the contents of hemoglobin, calcium, phosphorus and magnesium in blood.

In addition, under sufficient sunlight, the secretion levels of adrenaline, thyroxine and gonad will be improved, thus effectively improving the negative psychology such as depression and mental depression.

2. More sun exposure helps to reduce "winter fat"

The cold winter makes people accumulate a lot of "winter fat", so it's time to reduce it. It is understood that the reduction of sunlight will stimulate people's desire for high-calorie foods, because the synthesis of serotonin, a hormone that helps improve mood and suppress appetite, will decrease with the reduction of sunlight, making people feel depressed easily and their appetite will double. In severe cases, they may even suffer from a disease called Seasonal Depression (SAD). According to statistics, about10 million people suffer from this disease every winter in the world, and its cure includes half an hour of light every day.

3, more sunshine helps to sterilize.

Experts say that ultraviolet rays in sunlight are a natural disinfectant, which can kill pathogens of various respiratory infectious diseases, such as influenza virus, measles virus and meningococcus. The results showed that typhoid and mycobacterium tuberculosis could be killed for several hours, pertussis could be killed 1 hour and Shigella dysenteriae could be killed for 30 minutes under direct sunlight. Experts suggest that citizens can get more sunshine in winter and spring, especially patients with allergic rhinitis, rheumatoid arthritis and bronchial asthma.

4, more sun exposure to prevent osteoporosis.

Adequate light will play a key role in the production of vitamin D and the absorption of calcium. Once vitamin D is deficient, the human body will not absorb enough calcium, and the human bones will become very fragile. If you are not careful, you will break a bone, such as bending over and jumping. Some osteoporosis, even if it has not reached the level of fracture, will produce persistent pain, which greatly affects people's quality of life.
