Remember these eight secrets!
Fans are better than air conditioners.
In hot summer, although air conditioning can quickly cool down, blowing air conditioning often will affect people's perspiration function. Sweating is a self-regulating cooling process of human body. In an air-conditioned room for a long time, the human body's ability to adjust temperature will decline, and the central adjustment ability will decline, which will cause various discomforts.
So we'd better turn on the air conditioner less and use the fan to cool down. Moreover, turning on the fan will definitely open the window, which can speed up the air circulation and help cool down.
Hymns, especially the elderly, should be less air-conditioned because of their weak body and limited ability to adjust temperature.
Choose cotton underwear.
Cotton-padded jacket is not only comfortable and soft, but also has strong sweat absorption ability. Wearing a cotton-padded jacket in summer can accelerate the absorption of sweat discharged from the body and quickly take away the heat in the body, thus achieving the effect of lowering the body temperature.
Psalms should also sleep in cotton pajamas, which can protect the abdomen and prevent "wind evil" from entering the body and hurting the internal organs.
Warm water bath and cold water bath
In summer, the temperature is high, the pores of human body are open, and the metabolism speed is fast. If you take a bath directly, the skin surface temperature will drop sharply, the pores will close, the blood vessels will contract suddenly, and the body heat will not be emitted.

Eat more pasta.
There is a saying in the north that "jiaozi comes first, pancakes second and eggs third". Refers to the custom of ordinary people living their own lives.
From the perspective of modern nutrition, this sentence has some truth. When the temperature is high in summer, human metabolism will be accelerated, and the body will sweat a lot, and the demand for energy will increase. Pasta like jiaozi contains sugar, B vitamins and various minerals, which can provide enough calories for human body.
Some people like to wash their noodles twice with cold water. Doing so will make some B vitamins and potassium elements dissolve in water, and the nutrition will be lost.

Green tea replenishes water to remove fire.
In summer, you can choose to drink green tea from Zhongbaohui Store, because the body loses not only water, but also a lot of electrolytes.
