The dog days of summer every year are always a period of high incidence of various diseases. The dog days are the days with the highest temperature, humidity and sultry weather in a year. However, the specific time of accommodation each year is not fixed. As soon as the dog days arrive, the number of people with colds, fever, gastrointestinal discomfort or respiratory infections will increase. In order to get sick less in dog days, we should form some good habits in our life. Next, let's find out what taboos are best not to commit.

In summer, the sun is shining and the temperature is high. When you go out, you should do a good job of sun protection. It is recommended not to do strenuous exercise in high-temperature exposed areas. Avoid catching cold quickly after heating. Taking a bath immediately after going out or exercising, or turning on the air conditioner to blow cold air, will lead to the rapid closure of human pores, making it difficult to discharge body heat, and will also cause insufficient blood supply to the brain and dizziness due to cerebral vasoconstriction. Avoid excessive temperature difference between indoor and outdoor, and blow against the cold wind for a long time. The body can't adapt to the excessive temperature difference, and it is easy to catch cold in the neck and back when facing the cold wind, and the waist is sore and backache.

Avoid drinking cows or cold drinks. Drinking too much water quickly will dilute the blood rapidly, increase the blood volume and increase the burden on the heart. Cold drinks stimulate the spleen and stomach, and drinking too much hurts the body. The suggestion is to drink more warm water, sip and not drink. Avoid leftovers. In dog days, the bacteria of leftovers multiply quickly, so we should pay attention to preservation, and it is best to eat them on the same day. Don't open the window for ventilation all day. Staying in an air-conditioned room or a poorly ventilated room for a long time, poor air quality can easily lead to diseases.

Don't take a nap at noon. Hot weather in dog days will affect the quality of sleep. It is recommended to take a nap, but don't sleep for too long. Avoid irregular life and stay up late. Avoid emotional excitement and irritability. If the dog days are not good, there will be physical discomfort and decreased immunity. Therefore, we should be prepared for cold protection in dog days, and we should not be greedy for cold. Pay attention to a light diet, drink plenty of warm water and exercise properly to ensure the quality of sleep. You can also do some diet therapy. Eat more bitter gourd, loofah and other foods that clear away heat and detoxify, strengthen the stomach and open the spleen.
