On June 21, the summer solstice is ushered. The day in the northern hemisphere is the longest in the whole year, and it is about to usher in the hottest dog days. Everyone should pay attention to heat dissipation and prevention.
Let me share with you a few tips for preventing heatstroke and cooling down.
1. Drink plenty of water. In summer, it is best to drink less alcohol and drink more water, because alcohol will cause the body to lack water, while plain water, mineral water or low-sugar soda can better supplement the body's moisture. If necessary, add a little salt to the water. It can prevent people from sweating too much and leading to collapse.
2. Wash your wrists with cold water. You can use tap water to flush your wrist for 5-10 seconds every few hours, because the blood temperature is relatively high in summer, and the wrist is where the arteries flow, so flushing with water can lower the blood temperature.
3. Eat less and more meals. As long as the body metabolizes food, it produces calories. The more you eat, the more calories you eat. So eat fewer meals and try to eat less high-protein foods, because high-protein foods produce more calories when they are metabolized.
4. Drink more chrysanthemum tea. The summer weather is hot and people are more likely to get angry. At this time, drinking some chrysanthemum tea can not only cool down and brainwash, but also replenish moisture in the body.
5. Hang wet curtains and damp the curtains so that the evaporated water will blow in with the wind, and the room will be cool
Precautions for heatstroke prevention in summer:
1. Do not use cold water to take a shower, and it is not advisable to take a shower immediately after exercise
Especially when the weather is hot, if you take a shower without getting a good rest after exercise, it is not good for your body.
2. Don't eat too much cold drinks
Cold drinks are the favorites of many big and small friends in summer, such as iced watermelon, ice cream, etc., but they must be of a certain degree and not excessive consumption, otherwise it will easily cause diarrhea and other physical diseases.
3. The temperature of the air conditioner should not be adjusted too low
It’s hot. Some friends use the air conditioner and set the indoor temperature too low. Although the body feels very comfortable at the time, it will definitely be bad for the body after a long time. Generally speaking, the temperature of the air conditioner should not be set too low. It is better to be lower than 25 degrees Celsius.
4. Do not blow against the fan
The wind of the fan should be softer and softer than that of the air conditioner. Facing the hair dryer is not only easy to catch a cold, it can also cause diseases such as arthritis.
5. Pay attention to ventilation
Natural wind is the best, so in summer, if there is a little wind, you can open the windows to let the air circulate and also let the temperature drop.
