1, summer health care methods
1, drink plenty of water
Drink seven or eight cups of boiled water every day, and you can add some honey to the water. In summer, people's physical energy consumption is particularly fast, and honey can quickly replenish the energy needed by the human body. Water is an indispensable part of the human body. Organs, muscles, blood, hair, bones and teeth all contain water, and there will be more water loss in summer. If water is not replenished in time, it will seriously affect health, make skin dry, increase wrinkles and accelerate human aging. Such as honey water, mineral water, Leng Cha, milk and apple juice are all ideal thirst-quenching drinks.
2. Nourishing Yang
"The Yellow Emperor's Internal Classic, Su Wen, Four Qi Tunes the Spirit" said: "Xia San Moon is called a beautiful moon, and everything is gorgeous. Sleeping at night and getting up early, never tired of the sun, makes the ambition angry, makes Huaying a show, and makes the gas vent. If you love it outside, this summer gas should be the way to keep fit. " In hot summer, many people will suffer from air-conditioning disease. People turn on the air conditioner all day and night, and the temperature difference between indoor and outdoor can reach more than ten degrees. In addition, a large number of cold drinks with ice will definitely hurt the yang. Therefore, we should pay attention to the living environment not to be too humid, not to eat too much frozen and cold food, not to turn the temperature of the air conditioner too low at night, preferably above 26 degrees, and not to spend the night in the open air and cold places.
3, diet tonic
In the aspect of diet nourishing, the principle of nourishing, invigorating spleen, dispelling summer heat and eliminating dampness is adopted in hot weather. Fat, sweet, thick and hot products should not be eaten, but foods with light and nourishing yin should be chosen. Sweet, cool and moist foods: wheat, sorghum, highland barley, tofu, white lentils, black sesame seeds, potatoes, Chinese cabbage, lettuce, asparagus, spinach, wax gourd, watermelon and so on. Foods for invigorating spleen and stomach, nourishing yin and invigorating qi: spinach, lotus root, water bamboo, tomatoes, carrots, eggs, apples, milk, grapes, lotus seeds, mulberries, clams, goose, herring, crucian carp, silver carp and barley flour. Foods for removing summer heat and dampness, and clearing away heat and toxic materials: mung bean, broad bean, adzuki bean, soybean, raw radish, eggplant, Chinese cabbage, celery, water chestnut, coix seed, watermelon, wax gourd, towel gourd, cucumber, melon, bitter gourd, chrysanthemum, lotus leaf, tea, etc.
4. Potassium supplementation
Sweating in summer is more, and there are more potassium ions lost with sweat, resulting in hypokalemia, which will cause symptoms such as fatigue, dizziness, headache and loss of appetite. The most effective way to prevent potassium deficiency in hot weather is to eat more foods containing potassium. Fresh vegetables and fruits contain more potassium, and you can eat more strawberries, apricots, lychees, peaches and plums. Vegetables include green onions, celery and edamame, and are also rich in potassium. Tea also contains more potassium. Drinking more tea in hot days can not only relieve summer heat, but also supplement potassium, which can kill two birds with one stone.
5. Supplement salt and vitamins
The human body sweats a lot in summer, and sodium chloride loses a lot, so we should pay attention to supplementing salt while supplementing water. Drink some salty boiled water every day to keep the acid-base balance and osmotic pressure in the body relatively stable. Nutritionists also suggest that it is best to supplement vitamin B 1, vitamin B2 2 mg and calcium 1 g every day in high temperature season, which can reduce the consumption of sugar and tissue protein in the body and is beneficial to human health. Therefore, you should eat more foods rich in the above nutrients in summer, such as watermelon, cucumber, tomato, beans and their products, animal liver, shrimp skin, etc., and you can also drink some fruit juice.
6. Wear light clothes
Dark clothes will absorb sunlight, making people's body temperature rise and dry; At the same time, mosquitoes have the habit of darkening, and dark colors are easy to attract mosquitoes, especially black.
7. Happiness comes from "bitterness"
Alkaloids contained in bitter food have pharmacological effects such as relieving summer heat, promoting blood circulation and relaxing blood vessels. Eating some bitter food properly in hot weather can not only clear the heart, relieve annoyance, refresh the mind, but also stimulate appetite, strengthen the spleen and benefit the stomach. Bitter gourd: Take its immature fruit as a vegetable, and the ripe fruit pulp can be eaten raw, cold, fried with meat and roasted with fish, which is tender and refreshing and has a unique flavor. Momordica charantia has the effects of stimulating appetite, helping digestion, eliminating heat and evil, relieving fatigue, clearing away heart fire and improving eyesight. In addition, bitter foods such as bitter vegetables, tea and coffee can also be selected as appropriate. It should be noted that eating bitter food should not be excessive, otherwise it may cause symptoms such as nausea and vomiting.
8. Pay attention to itchy skin
When traveling in summer, when the skin is itchy and dry due to sun exposure, you can apply a small amount of ointment such as Fusong, do not use hot water for scalding, and do not use alkaline soap for cleaning, so as not to irritate the skin and aggravate the symptoms.
2, summer sun protection instructions
1, there is strong ultraviolet light in the cool wind: ultraviolet light will not give off heat. For example, when people climb a mountain, the more they climb it, the cooler the mountain wind will be, but the stronger the ultraviolet light is at this time. Every time it goes up 1000 meters, the ultraviolet ray increases 10%. The same is true in the sea. The sea breeze makes you feel cool, but at this time, the ultraviolet rays often reach a very strong level. In addition, 90% of ultraviolet rays can penetrate clouds, and clouds are not the best killer of ultraviolet rays.
2, T-shirts have better sunscreen effect: a simple T-shirt is better than any sunscreen, and a small straw hat is also very useful. If you apply sunscreen with an SPF of 30, you don't have to worry about how your whitening plan will be affected.
3, after tanning, more protection is needed: skin thickening and melanin production are manifestations of skin self-protection, but melanin can only partially absorb ultraviolet B, but it has no function of absorbing ultraviolet A. Therefore, it is essential to create an isolation barrier between the sun and the skin when it is outdoors. It is wrong to think that once the skin is tanned, there is no need for sunscreen.
4. Avoid red and black food: According to nutritionists' research, if you use red food and then bask in the sun, your skin will get tanned more easily. Therefore, we should try to avoid eating red food such as papaya before sun exposure. In addition, black foods such as soy sauce, black vinegar, coffee, etc. contain more melanin, which easily leads to pigmentation of the skin, so it is easy to make the skin black.
5, vitamin C supplementation: As we all know, the whitening effect of vitamin C is more obvious. Therefore, if you want to whiten, a certain degree of internal adjustment is also essential. Usually, when eating, try to eat as many foods rich in vitamin C as possible, such as tomatoes, cucumbers, potatoes, carrots, spinach, milk, seafood, etc., to keep the skin healthy, beautiful and naturally whitening.
