The weather in summer is unbearable. What are the tips for clearing away heat and relieving summer heat?

? 1. Wear light clothes when going out.

? When you go out in summer, you should pay attention to dress and try to wear light-colored clothes, because light-colored clothes absorb less light and heat than dark clothes, and the material is preferably cotton, because cotton is breathable and is more conducive to sweat evaporation. Don't wear those exposed clothes. It's easy to get sunburn and heatstroke when exposed directly under the skin.

? 2. Bitter gourd loses weight

? Bitter gourd can be fried, boiled, simmered, stewed or cold-mixed, and has the effects of clearing away heat, nourishing blood and benefiting qi, invigorating kidney and spleen, nourishing liver and improving eyesight. Its taste is bitter and sweet, which can greatly increase people's appetite and is especially popular in summer. In fact, bitter gourd not only has good edible value, but also has high nutritional value and medicinal value. Bitter gourd is cold and bitter. Eating bitter gourd in hot summer can dispel the internal heat in the body, thus achieving the purpose of relieving summer heat. More importantly, bitter gourd contains a lot of lipids and is known as the "fat killer", which can decompose body fat and promote metabolism. For those who want to lose weight and shape, bitter gourd is the best choice in summer.

? 3. Eat more summer food.

? In summer, people should not only supplement the body's salt and water, but also drink more drinks such as mung bean soup and sour plum soup to replenish the body's water in time. At the same time, some fruits such as watermelon and peach are also good choices for heatstroke prevention and fever reduction. But don't eat too many popsicles, which is easy to stimulate the stomach and may lead to gastrointestinal discomfort and other diseases.

? Spontaneous sweating

? When the temperature is high in summer and sweat can't be excreted, it will produce yin evil and stagnate between the body surface and the body. When the temperature drops in autumn, malaria will occur between cold and heat, which is what the people call "swing", and even it will recur in winter. Sweat can't be discharged in time, and it can also lead to dizziness and weakness. If combined with cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, it may also lead to a stroke. Therefore, it is suggested that friends try to sweat naturally in summer, don't be too greedy, blow air conditioners all day and all night, and don't eat ice products easily. Because the pores on the surface of the human body can regulate the body temperature, when the temperature rises, the pores gradually open and sweat is excreted, thus achieving the effect of cooling.
