First, men's health tips
1, reasonable diet, light is better.
Because in the hot summer, the digestive system of human body will become more fragile, so at this time, male friends should pay attention to the functions of invigorating spleen and benefiting qi, clearing away heat and promoting diuresis, and eliminating summer heat and promoting fluid production in their health diet. When men are in their normal diet, it is best to choose lighter food, and try to eat as little as possible or not to eat fried and greasy and indigestible food. In summer, the best summer health foods are watermelon, cucumber, cantaloupe, tomato, green tea and mung bean soup. All vegetables with bitter taste generally have the function of clearing away heat. Therefore, men should often eat some bitter fruits and vegetables in summer, which can play a certain role in relieving fever, removing summer heat and eliminating fatigue, and it is also a good choice for men to keep healthy in summer!
2, should not be naked and greedy.
In the hot summer, because the weather is very hot and dry, many male friends prefer to be naked and covet the coolness. This practice is actually very wrong, because when the temperature exceeds 35 degrees, people's skin generally can't dissipate heat, which in turn will absorb heat from the outside. If you are shirtless at this time, you will feel even more sultry.
3. Choose to shave in the early morning
In summer, the best time for men to shave is in the early morning, because men's hair grows rapidly during sleep because of the accelerated metabolism of the body and the exuberant secretion of sebaceous glands. After a night of "madness", the next morning is the best time to "cut down". And at this time, the skin is more relaxed, and the chance of being scratched during shaving can also be reduced. Men should remember to tighten their skin when shaving to reduce the resistance when the razor runs on the skin. Then apply a proper amount of shaving cream, first from the temples, cheeks and neck, followed by the chin, the ideal angle is about 26 degrees, and try to reduce the back scraping.
4. Drink salt water and tea in summer
In summer, men will sweat because of all kinds of fatigue, and in summer, sweating in large quantities will take away salt, vitamins, potassium, magnesium and other trace elements in people's bodies. If you only drink boiled water, the nutrients that enter the human body will not only be difficult to enter the blood vessels normally, but also remain in the cells, and will easily penetrate into sweat glands and bladder and be quickly excreted, so it is difficult to relieve thirst, but will cause discomfort such as fright and dizziness. Therefore, if a small amount of salt is added to the boiled water, the body can maintain the nutrients to quench thirst. Moreover, drinking tea in summer can not only fill the essential elements such as nutrients and vitamins lost by sweating, but also play a role in promoting fluid production to quench thirst, refreshing the brain, strengthening appetite, and has the effects of detoxification and sterilization.
5. Pay attention to dressing healthily
Because the temperature in summer is hot, because men try to wear some loose and breathable clothes in their usual clothes, which is also good for their health. If men wear tight jeans in summer, they will have poor air permeability and poor heat dissipation, especially chemical fiber pants, which will easily breed bacteria and restrict blood circulation, which is very unfavorable to men's health. Therefore, here we suggest that men had better wear thin clothes in summer, and underwear should be made of pure cotton with good water absorption, and tight jeans should not be worn often. When buying jeans, you'd better choose something bigger, cotton and breathable.
6. Go to bed late, get up early and take a lunch break
Because the morning breaks earlier in summer, and men who are busy with their work also get up early, but because of their work, they sleep relatively late at night, which is easy to cause lack of sleep. Therefore, men should appropriately increase their siesta. Of course, the nap time also varies from person to person, and generally it is appropriate to arrive at 1 hour in half an hour. For those who can't take a nap, listen to music or close their eyes for 30 to 50 minutes at noon.
7. It is best to lie on your back when sleeping.
For many men, the best sleeping position in summer is supine, and the legs should be properly separated; Lying on your stomach and side while sleeping may have adverse effects on men's health. Therefore, supine is the best sleeping position for men in summer. At the same time, if some men are obese and snore when sleeping on their backs, try lying on their backs with their heads slightly tilted to one side.
8. Don't bathe in cold water.
In hot summer, cold water bathing is the favorite way for many male friends, especially some young and middle-aged men. However, because the weather in summer is hot and people's pores and muscles are in a state of catharsis, if you take a cold water bath at this time, it will make the cold easily invade the human body, resulting in the dark loss of yang. Common symptoms such as cold hands and feet, hamstring twitching, blurred vision, and sometimes even unexplained fever. Of course, men should pay attention to shelter from the wind after bathing even in hot water.
9, care for the liver and drink less.
In the hot summer, many men will choose some cold drinks to drink, many of them will choose beer, and there may be many people who don't know that alcohol is the first thing that men do to their liver. Related studies have found that if the daily alcohol consumption is above160g, the incidence of alcoholic fatty liver will be 92% within ten years. Therefore, male liver protection should start with abstinence, except for a small amount of red wine, white wine and beer are not suitable for drinking more. In addition, men should eat more vegetables, and the arrangement of three meals a day should highlight the status of protein and vitamins, which is very beneficial to delay the aging of liver tissue and the ability of liver cells to repair, renew and detoxify. And this kind of food includes eggs, fish, poultry, bean products, animal liver and so on.
10, don't forget potassium to supplement nutrition.
In summer, men should pay attention to supplement more nutrients, such as bayberry, melon, plum, tomato, green pepper, wax gourd and other fresh fruits and vegetables; In addition, water and inorganic salts should be supplemented, and special attention should be paid to potassium supplementation. These foods include beans and their products, mushrooms, etc. Moreover, in hot summer, we should eat more foods with the functions of clearing away heat and promoting diuresis, such as watermelon, bitter gourd, peach, dark plum, strawberry and cucumber. Protein should be supplemented appropriately, such as fish, lean meat and eggs.
