What is the best match for a hot summer day? Ice cream, beer, watermelon? When it comes to hot days, many people like to chill things
After another breath of "dazzling", although this feeling is "cold immersion", it will cause a lot of damage to the body
in life
There are also many misconceptions about relieving the heat
Ice water relieves the heat better than hot tea?
The longer mung bean soup is cooked, the better?
Drink Huo Xiang Zhengqi water if you suffer from heat stroke?
Let's see if you stepped on the pit
Ice water relieves the heat better than hot tea?
And it didn't!
A large number of iced drinks that people drink need to be diluted with water in the body, and cold drinks enter the body, resulting in a sharp drop in body temperature, and the accumulation of heat heat cannot be dispersed, which will increase the risk of heat stroke.
Moreover, cold food can easily cause spastic contraction of the gastrointestinal tract, resulting in abdominal pain, bloating and other symptoms; Affect digestion, cause nausea, vomiting and other reactions; It also increases the burden on the heart.
So, trying to beat the heat with a glass of ice water won't work! The hotter the weather, the more you should drink tea, especially hot tea, which is the real magic weapon to relieve the heat.
Drinking hot tea can promote the secretion of sweat in the skin and open pores. When sweat evaporates, it also dissipates heat from the surface of the body.
At the same time, the blood flow of the human body is greatly increased, sweat secretion will also increase, and the heat in the deep part of the human body will gradually be dissipated.
It should be noted that it is advisable to wait for the temperature of the tea soup to drop to about 40 ° C, and then sip slowly.
If you don't like hot tea, have a cup of room temperature tea. Caffeine and other ingredients in tea can also regulate body temperature and have a cooling effect.
Tea polyphenols, pectin, amino acids, sugar and other substances in tea can react with saliva in the mouth, moisturize the mouth, and make people feel cool.
Therefore, in terms of the effect of relieving heat, hot tea is better than ice water!
The longer mung bean soup is cooked, the better?
Mung bean soup is a heat tool for many Guangdong grannies, and most people's standard is to boil mung beans until they bloom. It is said that the longer it is cooked, the better the effect on relieving heat, is this true?
Kong Xiangwen, chief pharmacist of the Third Affiliated Hospital of Beijing University of Chinese Medicine, said: The heat-relieving effect of mung beans comes from mung bean skin, and the polyphenols in mung bean skin are the main components of heat relief, which have antioxidant activity. Generally speaking, when mung beans are boiled for about 10 minutes, the content of polyphenols is the highest, its antioxidant activity is also the highest, and the function of relieving heat is also the best.
When mung beans are boiled for a longer time, the weaker its antioxidant activity and its effect on relieving heat is relatively weak. And when the mung bean soup is boiled until it turns red, its heat-relieving effect is greatly reduced.
All heat strokes can be used
Lotus fragrance positive qi water to soothet?
Lotus fragrance zhengqi water or ten drops of water is more suitable for summer due to the cold caused by the heat and cloud.
In the view of Chinese medicine, heat stroke is divided into yang heat and yin heat, and yang heat is a series of symptoms that appear after being exposed for too long in a high temperature environment. Heat and shade refers to the symptoms of cold and dampness caused by the cold and humid season, such as blowing air conditioners, sleeping on cool mats, and eating cold drinks.
If it is a hot and sunny drink of Huo Xiang Zhengqi Water or ten drops of water, it will play a bad role.
These "summer relief tools" should be restrained

For those who easily drink 3 or 4 bottles, whether from the perspective of controlling weight or reducing the harm of alcohol (liver damage, gout, colorectal cancer, breast cancer, etc.), they should drink less beer, let alone use beer as a summer drink.
3 ice cream: limited moisture, high in calories
The main raw materials of ice cream and ice cream are milk or dairy products, drinking water, white sugar, edible vegetable oil and then added to egg products, fruit products, soy products, chocolate, etc. The net weight of ordinary ice cream and ice cream is about 70-80g, and the moisture that can be provided is limited, about 40-70ml, which is not suitable as a summer relief food.
