Summer is a season full of sunshine and vitality, but it is also a period of high incidence of diseases.
The hot, humid environment gives an excellent opportunity for various pathogens to breed, and the body is more likely to fatigue due to the heat.
During this season, people over the age of 30 especially need to pay attention to their health and avoid some unnecessary dangers.
After all, as we age, our body functions are no longer as strong as they were when we were younger, and a little carelessness can lead to unexpected health problems. Therefore, it is particularly important to adhere to the principle of "2 do not drink and 3 do not smoke".
First of all, let's talk about the "2 don't drink". Many people like to drink ice-cold beverages on hot summer days to find them cool and quench their thirst. But in reality, this habit is harmful to the body. Suppose there is a female college student who drinks an ice-cold drink every day to cool down, only to find that she has an upset stomach and often has diarrhea.
Doctors told her that iced drinks can irritate the gastrointestinal tract, cause indigestion and diarrhea, and may even lead to more serious gastrointestinal disorders.
The data shows that there is a significant increase in the number of patients with gastrointestinal diseases caused by the consumption of ice-cold beverages in summer. Therefore, people over the age of 30 should try to avoid drinking ice-cold beverages to protect gastrointestinal health.

Another undrinkable is high-sugar beverages.
Suppose there is a middle-aged uncle who likes to drink all kinds of sweet drinks and thinks it will boost his energy. However, he gained weight and his blood sugar gradually increased, and he was eventually diagnosed with diabetes.
Doctors reminded him that high-sugar drinks not only cause weight gain, but also increase the risk of diabetes and cardiovascular disease.
To stay healthy, especially after the age of 30, you should minimize your intake of high-sugar beverages and choose healthier beverages such as plain water, weak tea, or natural fruit juices.
Next, let's take a look at the "3 don't suck". The first is not smoking.
Suppose there is a young man who likes to smoke to relieve stress when he is stressed at work. Over the years, he noticed a significant decline in lung function, and doctors warned him that if he continued to smoke, he would not only increase the risk of lung cancer, but also lead to cardiovascular disease.
From a medical point of view, smoking is one of the main factors that lead to several serious diseases.
Therefore, people over the age of 30, especially those who have been smoking for many years, should quit smoking as early as possible to reduce health risks.
The second is not to smoke secondhand smoke. Suppose there is an old grandmother whose husband is an old smoker and has been exposed to secondhand smoke for a long time, despite not smoking herself. She began to experience breathing difficulties and coughing, and was eventually diagnosed with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). The doctor told her that secondhand smoke is no less harmful to health than direct smoking.
From a scientific point of view, secondhand smoke contains a variety of harmful substances, and long-term exposure to secondhand smoke can lead to respiratory diseases, cardiovascular diseases, and even an increased risk of cancer. Studies have shown that secondhand smoke exposure is strongly associated with the incidence of lung cancer, heart disease, and stroke. Data shows that people who are exposed to second-hand smoke for a long time have a significantly increased health risk. Therefore, in order to protect the health of yourself and your family, you should try to avoid exposure to secondhand smoke and create a smoke-free environment.
Finally, it does not inhale toxic gases. Suppose there is a middle-aged uncle who works on a construction site and is often exposed to various harmful gases, and gradually, he finds himself with frequent headaches, dizziness, and even difficulty breathing. Doctors diagnosed him with occupational asthma and told him it was caused by long-term inhalation of toxic gases.
From a medical point of view, long-term exposure to toxic gases can damage the respiratory system and increase the risk of asthma, chronic bronchitis and lung cancer. Studies have shown that exposure to harmful gases is strongly associated with the incidence of a variety of respiratory diseases. The data shows that workers in high-risk industries such as chemicals and construction have significantly increased health risks if effective protective measures are not taken. Therefore, people engaged in high-risk work, especially middle-aged people over the age of 30, should strictly follow safety precautions, wear gas masks, and have regular medical check-ups to ensure their health.
So, the question arises: why is summer the season of high incidence of diseases, especially for people over 30 years old, to pay special attention to these health principles? From a physiological point of view, in a high temperature environment, the body's metabolism accelerates, the body's water and electrolytes are easily lost, immunity decreases, and it is more susceptible to diseases. In addition, the hot and humid climate in summer provides favorable conditions for the reproduction of various pathogens, increasing the risk of contracting diseases. In particular, people over the age of 30 begin to decline in their physical functions and are more susceptible to the influence of the environment and bad lifestyle habits.
To further protect your health, you can take the following measures: First, maintain a good diet, drink plenty of water, eat light, vitamin- and mineral-rich foods, and reduce your intake of high-sugar and high-fat foods. Secondly, maintain a regular work and rest, ensure adequate sleep, and avoid overwork and staying up late. Again, do a moderate amount of exercise to enhance your physique and improve your immunity. In addition, pay attention to personal hygiene, wash hands frequently, and keep the living environment clean and ventilated to reduce the breeding of pathogens.
Through the explanation of this article, I hope that you can better understand the importance of summer health management, and put it into practice in your daily life to stay away from health risks such as sudden death. Let's work together to eat scientifically, live a healthy life, follow the principle of "2 don't drink and 3 don't smoke", and enjoy a healthy and happy summer from now on.
Key Points:
Secondhand smoke contains a variety of harmful substances, and long-term exposure to secondhand smoke can lead to respiratory diseases, cardiovascular diseases, and even an increased risk of cancer. Studies have shown that secondhand smoke exposure is strongly associated with the incidence of lung cancer, heart disease, and stroke. Data shows that people who are exposed to second-hand smoke for a long time have a significantly increased health risk. Therefore, in order to protect the health of yourself and your family, you should try to avoid exposure to secondhand smoke and create a smoke-free environment.
