The following suggestions hope to help you do a good job in summer health and lose weight.
1, lose more water in summer, and drink more water.
Drink plenty of water, especially warm water, and add about 1500ml every day. The body should keep moisture and replenish moisture at any time. If it is not replenished in time, it will seriously affect health, make skin dry, increase wrinkles and accelerate human aging.
2. Reasonable living habits
In summer, you should go to bed late and get up early, and take a nap as much as possible at noon. Do not sit, lie or sleep for a long time in the corridor, under the eaves or in the shade of ventilation openings. It is not advisable to use the electric fan for a long time, because it is steaming outside in summer heat, sweating heavily, and the pores are wide open, which is easy to be attacked by cold. If it is blown for a long time, it may cause headache, lumbar muscle strain, facial paralysis or muscle pain.
3, diet tonic, eat more "bitter"
In terms of diet, in hot weather, the principle is to tonify, strengthen the spleen, dispel summer heat and eliminate dampness. Fat, sweet, thick and hot products should not be eaten, but foods with light and nourishing yin should be chosen.
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. It should be noted that eating bitter food should not be excessive, otherwise it may cause symptoms such as nausea and vomiting.
4. Supplement salt, potassium and vitamins
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 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. In summer, you should eat more foods rich in the above nutrients, such as watermelon, cucumber, tomato, beans and their products, animal liver, shrimp skin and so on. In addition, 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. Try to 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.
6, skin itching precautions
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, and do not use hot water for scalding, nor should you use alkaline soap for cleaning, so as not to irritate the skin and aggravate the symptoms.
7, moderate exercise
Summer exercise should not be too much, and it is advisable to sweat a little after exercise. People who still insist on exercising in summer can choose to practice Tai Ji Chuan, Tai Ji Chuan, jogging and cycling.
Tip: A good figure is not shaped in a moment, just like a fat person does not get fat overnight. You must persist in keeping fit and losing weight in summer. Developing good habits can not only lose weight, but also benefit your body and mind.
