How do the elderly cope with hot weather?

The researchers warned people, especially the frail elderly over 65, to pay special attention in high temperature weather exceeding 33℃. This is because when the temperature exceeds 33℃, some elderly people are prone to stroke, cerebral hemorrhage and heart disease, and even die because of the failure of the human circulatory system. On the one hand, excessive sweating and high air pressure are easy to cause dehydration and reduce human immune function; On the other hand, a lot of sweating increases the blood concentration of human body, which leads to blood vessel blockage in some elderly people. It can be seen that high temperature weather is a hurdle for the elderly. So, how can the elderly cross this hurdle?

(1) Maintain emotional stability, optimism and daily life. Many cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases are caused by depression. For the elderly, a good mood can alleviate the illness;

(2) Do a good job in indoor ventilation and cooling, don't blow directly at the body with an electric fan, and don't set the air conditioning temperature too low;

(3) Replenish water in time, drink more boiled water or green tea, and drink some light salt boiled water and vegetable soup in moderation, so as to maintain the balance of water and sodium metabolism in the body and keep the daily urine output at about 1, 500ml;

(4) insist on taking a nap. According to research, people who take a nap for half an hour every day have a 30% lower mortality rate of coronary heart disease than those who don't take a nap;

(5) The family is equipped with some heatstroke prevention drugs, such as ten drops of water, Ren Dan, cooling oil, wind oil essence, Huoxiang Zhengqi water, etc.

(6) The diet should be light, and some nutritious foods such as lean meat, fish, eggs, vegetables and fruits should be eaten in moderation to reduce the intake of high-fat foods;

(7) When the daytime temperature exceeds 33℃, the elderly should not be exposed to the hot sun. 12 from 2 pm, it is best not to go out. If you need to go out, you should have sunshade equipment, such as umbrellas and sunglasses;

(8) Once you find the precursor of heart disease, you must go to the hospital for treatment in time.
