Midsummer is the most unbearable heat, but even on such a hot day, there are still some people who “add fuel to the fire” instead of avoiding the heat.
We have all heard of “summer cure for winter diseases”, but we must find the right method, instead of blindly taking supplements to avoid cold, taking large supplements, and not eating iced drinks…
A lot of the ways you think about maintaining your health are actually wrong! ! And once you do it wrong, you may be “rehabilitation”! Take a look at the following 3 wrong methods. Have you been caught?
Mistake 1 · No air conditioner in midsummer
Some people think that “Blowing the air conditioner in midsummer will make the cold air enter the body and destroy the body”, but this statement is not reliable!
The temperature in midsummer is high. In the case of high temperature and sweltering heat, people are prone to heat stroke, so it is necessary to turn on the air conditioner when it is time to turn on the air conditioner to cool down and enjoy the coolness. However, in midsummer, air conditioners should be used moderately to cool down:
Note
1. Don’t blow cold air directly to the air conditioner;
2. The temperature of the air conditioner should not be too low, and the outdoor temperature difference should not be too high;
3. When there is sweat or water droplets on the body, wipe it off and change the wet clothes before entering the air-conditioned room;
4. Do not blow air conditioners 24 hours a day, open windows properly for ventilation.
Mistake 2 · More supplements in midsummer
In summer, people sweat a lot, and people also feel a little empty. Many people think that “it should be supplemented in midsummer”, so ginseng, donkey-hide gelatin, and bird’s nest are vigorously supplemented. This approach is not advisable!
Sanfu is inherently dry, and excessive supplementation will increase the burden on the spleen and stomach, and may also lead to insomnia and nosebleeds.
Note
1. Supplements should be eaten properly and should not be excessive;
2. If you want to replenish your body in Sanfu, you can start with food and eat some warming ingredients.
Mistake 3. Exercising and sweating in midsummer
I don’t know where I heard that “winter practice three-nine, summer practice three-fu”, so in midsummer, I exercise and sweat, thinking it is “detoxification”. But in fact, sweating is not the same as detoxification, and this practice is very dangerous!
It is true that you need to sweat properly in the summer, but excessive sweating can cause dehydration and heatstroke. Middle-aged and elderly people who sweat too much are more likely to have cardiovascular problems.
Note
1. If you want to exercise, try to choose when the sun is not strong in the morning and evening;
2. The exercise time should not exceed 1 hour;
3. If you sweat a lot, you need to replenish water in time.
In the middle of summer, what issues need special attention? stomach!
The weather is hot, and the gastrointestinal tract is also uncomfortable. Eating too much iced drinks can easily cause acute gastroenteritis; it is also easy to let the bacteria in the food “take advantage of the weakness”, resulting in stomach pain and diarrhea.
At ordinary times, you should pay more attention to hygiene, but also take good care of the stomach and intestines, so as not to be too fragile!
Nuannuan comes to recommend some good ingredients and practices for gastrointestinal maintenance☟
01Xiaomi
Millet, as the first of the five grains, has high nutritional value.
Millet is rich in fiber, 4 times that of rice, which can promote gastrointestinal motility and prevent constipation.
Xiaomi is also a “master” in maintaining the stomach and intestines. Every morning, a bowl of hot millet porridge will warm the stomach and heart, and start a beautiful day~
02 Fennel
As a mild green leafy vegetable, fennel is not only good for the stomach but also cheap, and its aroma is unique and delicious.
Traditional Chinese medicine believes that fennel enters the stomach meridian, can warm the stomach, appetize, nourish the stomach, and regulate various stomach-cold-type stomach diseases. People with stomach cold and stomach pain can eat it to warm the stomach and relieve pain, and people with poor appetite can eat fennel to appetize.
Modern medical research has found that this is actually the effect of fennel oil in fennel. It can also stimulate the gastrointestinal nerves and blood vessels, promote the secretion of digestive juice, increase gastrointestinal motility, and eliminate accumulated gas.
