After entering the summer, many people will help the body to "cool down" for a short time by blowing air conditioners, eating popsicles, and sleeping in cool mats, but in the eyes of doctors, the way to use "cool" against "heat" in summer hurts the body, and the best way is to "heat". Learn to use these five summer "hot nourishment" methods!
Why should we "heat up" in summer?
Even in summer, if you do not pay attention to keeping warm, the body will appear obvious cold symptoms, such as mental malaise, slow metabolism, sweat can not be discharged, body cold, cold limbs, easy to catch a cold, diarrhea, stomach pain, suffering from intestinal diseases
Wait. There are also some conditions that do not attack immediately but can lurk in the body, leaving the root of the disease in autumn and winter.
Eat and drink to avoid the cold
In terms of diet, we should pay attention to eating less raw and cold food, and the "Shoushi Baoyuan" said: "In summer, warm food is especially suitable". In summer, you should use ginger and other foods to warm up the cold, and it is better to brew ginger and brown sugar together. Do not stay in a closed, air-conditioned room for a long time, and also pay attention to avoid rain.
Soak your feet in hot water
The feet are the second heart of the human body, and hot water soaking the feet can provide it with energy. Soaking feet in hot water can smooth the flow of qi and blood, increase the blood flow rate and flow of the feet, and enhance metabolism. The water temperature is 42 °C ~ 45 °C, warm and comfortable.
Take a hot bath
Hot bath will expand the body's capillaries, which is conducive to the body's heat removal and detoxification, and the water temperature is generally controlled at about 30C. In addition, you can also wipe your face with a hot towel, which not only easily removes dust and dirt, but also can wick sweat and cool down, making the skin breathable, making people feel cool and comfortable.
Relieve the heat and drink hot tea
In the hot summer, hot tea can quench heat and thirst better than herbal tea, because hot tea is conducive to sweat glands and can achieve the effect of heat dissipation. Moreover, tea can improve the ability of the spleen and stomach to mobilize. Although the popular cold drinks in summer can quickly cool the body, they cannot really quench the thirst and cool off.
Campaign "sweat for sweat"
In the I Ching, it is said that "luck gives birth to yang", summer
Exercise can speed up metabolism in the body and help sweating. In summer, it is necessary to "sweat sweat", and exercise is an important way to sweat. Exercise can also strengthen heat adaptation, improve the body's ability to regulate body temperature, prevent heat stroke and some common heat symptoms.
