Chinese medicine believes that "the general principle does not hurt, but the pain will not work." Our body has a precise circulation mechanism, and food intake and waste discharge follow certain laws. If any "channel" is blocked, problems will follow. It's summer now, and health care may start with the word "Guo".

Sweat glands: do more exercise and often soak your feet.

Sweat contains sulfur, urea, lactic acid and other human metabolites, so sweat helps to remove pore garbage and promote blood circulation.

But in summer, when people stay in air-conditioned rooms for a long time, they can't sweat, and our sweat glands are naturally blocked.

Therefore, everyone should pay attention not to stay in the air-conditioned room for too long in summer, and do some aerobic exercise in the morning or after work to make the body sweat normally and keep the sweat glands unobstructed. In addition, besides exercise, the most convenient way to sweat is to soak your feet.

Insisting on soaking feet with warm water is helpful to dispel summer heat and dampness, promote blood circulation of feet and enhance human body's disease resistance. At the same time, it is advisable to soak your feet with slight sweat for 20~30 minutes.

But it should be noted that don't soak your feet immediately after meals, so as not to affect digestion. People with pustules, burns, measles or foot injuries are not suitable for soaking feet. In addition, people with cardiovascular diseases and weak constitution should start soaking their feet step by step in a short time. Diabetic patients and patients with poor peripheral nerve sensation should be tested by their families to avoid scalding.

Urine: light salt water and lotus heart tea.

Some middle-aged and elderly people may have adverse urination due to weakness of spleen and kidney. In addition, after sweating in summer, a lot of water evaporates and urine decreases, which is easy to induce urinary system infection.

To prevent urinary tract infection, the most important thing is to drink plenty of water. You can add a small amount of salt to the water to supplement sodium.

In addition, mung bean soup, lotus seed soup and watermelon are also good products for benefiting water. You can buy some lotus seed cores, soak a few pieces of water as tea every day, and add some rock sugar if you feel bitter.

Mung beans are cool and sweet, and have the effects of clearing away heat and toxic materials, relieving summer heat and eliminating fire. Boiling soup or mung bean syrup in summer can reduce fire.

Shit: drink scented tea and eat fruits and vegetables.

Summer is easy to cause excessive internal heat, and people will have poor stool. Long-term constipation will lead to the accumulation of toxic substances in liver and intestine metabolism, which will further aggravate the symptoms of getting angry such as toothache, bad breath and sores on the mouth and tongue.

People who love fire and are prone to constipation can try Chinese herbal tea. Soaking Flos Chrysanthemi, Flos Lonicerae, Radix Panacis Quinquefolii, Dendrobium officinale and other medicinal materials in water can reduce fire and remove bad breath.

Of course, it is also necessary to eat more fresh fruits and vegetables. For example, celery can clear away heat and detoxify, and people with liver fire and rough skin can take it properly, and it is rich in crude fiber, which helps to stimulate gastrointestinal peristalsis.

Pear, watermelon, bitter gourd, lotus root, horseshoe and other ingredients are also good choices for reducing fire in summer.
