With a heatwave sweeping through us, we're heading into the hottest months of the year. In the face of hot weather, how to effectively protect yourself from the sun, cool down, and keep your body comfortable and healthy? This article will provide you with some simple and practical tips to help you get through this "autumn tiger" easily.
01. Drink more water and replenish electrolytes
In hot weather, the human body sweats more and easily loses water and electrolytes. Remember to replenish water at any time, preferably with warm water or drinks containing electrolytes, to avoid drinking drinks that are too cold, which may cause gastrointestinal discomfort.
02. Wear breathable clothing and choose light-colored clothing
Wear loose, breathable clothing, preferably cotton or linen. Light-colored clothing can reflect sunlight and reduce heat absorption.
03. Indoor ventilation, use green plants to cool down
Keep indoor ventilation well and place some green plants, such as pothos, spider plants, etc., which can not only beautify the environment, but also have a certain cooling effect.
04. Sun protection measures are essential
When going out, wear a hat, sunglasses, and sunscreen to avoid prolonged exposure to strong sunlight.
05. Cool food, reduce heat and quench thirst
Eat more fruits and vegetables, such as watermelon, cucumber, bitter melon, etc. They are rich in water and vitamins and can effectively help you cool down and quench your thirst.
06. Exercise appropriately and avoid hot periods
Exercise in summer should be moderate and avoid outdoor activities during hot hours (10 a.m. to 4 p.m.). You can choose to go out for exercise in the early morning or evening.
07. Use a fan or air conditioner
Use fans or air conditioners rationally, be careful that the room temperature should not be too low, and the temperature difference between indoor and outdoor should not exceed 5-7°C.
08. Carry cooling oil or peppermint ointment
Applying cooling oil or peppermint ointment on the philtrum, temples and other areas can quickly relieve symptoms such as dizziness and headaches.
09. Avoid excessive fatigue
In hot weather, the human body consumes a lot of energy and gets tired easily. Make sure you get enough sleep to avoid overexertion.
10. Pay attention to food safety
Hot weather is the peak period for food poisoning. Pay attention to food hygiene and avoid eating spoiled and rotten food.
Although "Autumn Tiger" is hot, we can still enjoy the beauty of this season as long as we take appropriate measures. I hope these tips can help you stay cool and healthy during "Autumn Tiger".
