(1) The summer heat is just around the "moderate amount", which is the highest temperature in a year. At this time, it is often easy to lose heart, especially for the elderly, children and the weak, and it is often difficult to resist the heat and have problems such as heatstroke, such as dizziness, palpitation, chest tightness, inattention and sweating.

(2) The best way to solve these symptoms is to arrange work reasonably and pay attention to the combination of work and rest; Avoid exposure to the hot sun; Pay attention to indoor cooling; Ensure adequate sleep; Pay attention to food hygiene. A correct diet can help the human body resist the invasion of summer and moisture. You can eat more melon, coix seed, poria cocos, yam and other foods. The best way is to cook porridge or soup with these ingredients.

(3) If you already feel dizzy, you can also use aromatic plants to relieve dizziness. For example, fresh leaves of Pogostemon fragrans, mint leaves and Eupatorium odoratum are used to cook soup or porridge. Because the main function of fresh leaves of Pogostemon cablin is to fragrant turbidity, dispel summer heat and relieve exterior syndrome; The main function of mint is to disperse wind and heat, relieve sore throat and penetrate rash, soothe the liver and purge heat, which can play a very good role. However, experts also reminded that it is feasible to eat fresh leaves of Pogostemon cablin for health care in summer, but it can't be overdone and can't be used as a method to treat diseases. And patchouli and mint should not be fried for a long time. Take patchouli as an example. If cooked for a long time, the fragrance will disappear and the original effect will not be achieved. So it's best to put the porridge and soup in a few minutes before they are cooked.

2, using summer heat and dampness to solve winter diseases:

(2) Summer heat is the season with the highest temperature and the highest yang throughout the year. In health care, it is often said that "winter disease is cured in summer", so it is the best treatment opportunity for those chronic diseases that break out in winter, especially in summer health care. It is necessary to carefully recuperate and focus on prevention and treatment.

(2) However, not all chronic diseases can be treated in summer, depending on the individual's physique. In summer, the yang is strong, and the effect of conditioning can be achieved by supplementing the yang through moxibustion and other means. Under normal circumstances, some diseases that are prone to onset in winter, that is, diseases with yang deficiency, can be treated in winter and summer. For example, chronic bronchitis, emphysema, bronchial asthma, diarrhea, rheumatism and other diseases with yang deficiency, people with these chronic diseases can make good use of summer heat to treat diseases, but it is not suitable for some chronic patients with heat.

3. Drink more warm water to relieve summer heat:

(1) In summer, water is also very important and indispensable for keeping fit and prolonging life. As the saying goes, "Man is made of water", which makes sense. Water accounts for about 70% of human body weight, and drinking boiled water is strongly recommended in the traditional summer heat-relieving health care method.

(2) It should be reminded that it is incorrect to drink too much water to quench thirst at one time, which will increase the burden on the heart, make the blood concentration drop rapidly, and even cause palpitation, shortness of breath, sweating and other phenomena. Therefore, in the hot season, if you are thirsty, you should drink a small amount of water first, and then stop drinking for a while.

3, medicine and food with porridge Yiqi Qingre:

(1) It's hot in summer, so you can use porridge to nourish your body. Li Shizhen believes that "porridge and intestines and stomach are the best food". It is recognized by the medical profession that porridge can tonify yin, promote the growth of gastric juice, strengthen the spleen and stomach, and tonify deficiency, which is most suitable for nourishing people. Cooking porridge at a relatively low temperature for a long time can reduce the decomposition and damage to protein and fat and the loss of vitamins, and make some minerals dissolve in the soup, thus making porridge more nutritious.

(2) Summer solar terms, typical "summer porridge" can choose mung bean lily porridge, watermelon Cui Yi porridge and barley red bean porridge, all of which have the effects of invigorating qi, relieving summer heat, invigorating spleen and nourishing stomach, and can help everyone spend the summer.

(3) Medicinal porridge is suitable for the elderly, children and people with weak spleen and stomach function. Drinking porridge in summer can put some herbs such as Poria cocos, and the effect of eliminating dampness will be better.

5. Don't move "liver fire" in summer: In addition, in hot summer, people are prone to move "liver fire", which often leads to inexplicable problems such as upset, listlessness and loss of appetite, also known as "emotional heatstroke". Emotional heatstroke is very harmful to summer health and physical and mental health, especially to the elderly and infirm. Because of emotional disorder, it will cause myocardial ischemia, arrhythmia, elevated blood pressure and even sudden death. Patients with cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases must avoid extreme emotions such as anger and anxiety, and try to be calm and calm.

6, "sauna day" fitness to take a walk: summer weather is often sultry and humid, the human body feels sultry, but even if you sweat, you can't reduce your fever, which is easy to get heatstroke. Therefore, first of all, we should avoid "sauna days" and try to go out as little as possible and have less activities in hot days. Even if you go out, you can't be exposed to the outdoors for a long time. In order to let the moisture in the body go out, we should try to take a walk and other low-intensity activities when the temperature is slightly lower in the morning and evening. In addition, patients with a history of chronic diseases, especially middle-aged and elderly people, are much more likely to have cardiovascular and cerebrovascular accidents than young people. Therefore, middle-aged and elderly people should avoid running, equipment exercise and other sports that consume too much physical strength under the high temperature in midsummer.
