Therefore, while preventing heatstroke in summer, people should also pay attention to eliminating dampness and cold. It's hot every day in summer, but the sun is strong. Everyone should make good use of the "heat" in summer to drive away the "cold" in the body.
If the moisture in the body is heavy, the body will behave as follows:
Fatigue and weakness
If your usual sleeping habits are ok, but you get up early and work hard during the day, and you are always tired and can't sleep, you should be alert to the heavy humidity.
Thick tongue coating and bad breath.
The tongue of a normal person should be pale pink with a thin layer of white on the surface. If the humidity is high, there will be a thick tongue coating on the tongue, and the mouth will become moist, leading to the growth of bacteria, thickening of saliva, and serious halitosis.
loose stools
People with heavy moisture will have different stools, which are not easy to form. Most of them are in a sparse state, and they also like to stick to the toilet, and they can't be washed clean after washing with water several times.
On a hot summer day, make good use of the following methods to help you get rid of the wet and cold atmosphere for a year!
First of all, we should avoid external humidity.
People have moisture, on the one hand, caused by bad living habits, on the other hand, caused by the external environment.
To avoid external moisture, please do the following:
1, reduce going out in rainy days to avoid getting wet;
2. Don't sit or sleep on the floor directly. The humidity drops. The moisture on the floor is very heavy. Sleeping on the floor for a long time can cause limb pain.
Don't wear clothes that are not dry. After taking a shower, dry your body first, then put on your clothes, wring out your hair, and blow dry your hair with a hair dryer at night.
4. The room should be ventilated with more windows to keep air convection.
Secondly, we should pay attention to diet and dampness.
1, eat radish in winter and ginger in summer. Everyone has heard of it. Eating some ginger in summer can improve blood circulation, contribute to the rise of yang, have the effect of invigorating the stomach and promoting digestion, and help to quickly discharge the damp and cold gas in the body.
2, red beans and glutinous rice are good ingredients for dampness and cold, and good helpers for dampness in summer. If you usually spend more time at home, it is recommended to cook porridge with red beans and barley.
It is worth reminding everyone that when cooking red bean and barley porridge, don't add rice and sugar. Rice grows in water and contains a certain amount of water. Adding sugar will greatly reduce the nourishing effect of red beans and barley. But if you want to get rid of dampness by cooking red bean and barley porridge, it will have no effect if you eat it once, so you can't cook it once if you think about it, and you can't eat it if you can't remember it. The key to dietotherapy is persistence.
The third method: soaking feet.
Don't think that you just need to soak your feet in autumn and winter. In fact, you can soak your feet for health all year round, especially to get rid of dampness. Soaking feet with hot water is more effective.
Because long-term persistence in soaking feet with hot water will accelerate blood circulation and promote the metabolism of the body, it is best to feel a little sweating when soaking feet, which will help to expel moisture from the body.
The fourth method: moderate exercise.
It's too hot to move in summer? That won't do! Proper exercise every day is a good habit of sweating actively, which can relieve fatigue, stimulate yang in the body and expand pores, thus helping to accelerate the discharge of moisture.
Of course, people with heavy humidity are not advised to do strenuous exercise. Sweating will be harmful to your health because of excessive water loss. Therefore, if the humidity is high, you can choose some mild exercise methods, such as brisk walking, jogging, swimming, yoga and so on.
Also, remember to drink a cup of warm water after exercise. The high temperature in summer makes you thirsty easily. In addition, sweating during exercise will take away some water, so it is very necessary to drink a cup of warm water slowly after exercise.
