Flushing the temple, the inside of elbow joint and the back of knee 10 seconds or more can help you cool down quickly.
2. Effective use of fans
If the temperature of the surrounding air does not change in hot weather, it is difficult to cool down quickly only by fans. However, if it is sprayed by spray, the wind from the fan can help evaporate the water on the body and quickly reduce the somatosensory temperature. Cool.

Diet cooling method:
1, drink as much water as possible.
Summer is hot, and the body loses water quickly and in large quantities. Drink as much water as possible to replenish body water loss and avoid heatstroke. In general, the per capita drinking water needs to reach 1500ml- 1700ml per day. In hot weather, it is recommended to drink more than 2000ml or even more.
2. The staple food in the diet is mainly miscellaneous grains, supplemented by vegetables and fruits.
Adequate coarse grains can not only supplement the basic energy provided by ordinary staple food, but also supplement rich trace elements. Trace elements and dietary fiber in vegetables and fruits can also supplement the loss of trace elements in the body caused by hot weather. At the same time, the water content in fruits and vegetables is richer than that in meat, and it is easier to digest and absorb.
3. Enrich the variety of drinks.
Besides basic water, you can make mung bean soup at home. Mung bean soup is refreshing and delicious, especially when it is cooked and put in the refrigerator, the effect of relieving summer heat is better. In addition to mung bean soup, you can also add some light salt water after strenuous outdoor activities, which can balance the body electrolyte and achieve the purpose of heatstroke prevention and summer vacation.
How to reduce the temperature by 2 1 in hot weather? Drink more water, and it is best to drink less and more water in summer, because alcohol will cause water shortage in the body, while boiled water, mineral water or low-sugar soda can better replenish water in the body. If necessary, add a little salt to the water to prevent people from sweating too much and causing collapse.
2, cold water rushed to the wrist. You can wash your wrist with tap water 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 washing with water can reduce the blood temperature.

If you really don't like bitter gourd, you can eat some watermelon. Watermelon is full of water, which can supplement the cooling, but it should be noted that watermelon has just been taken out of the refrigerator, so it is best to put it for a while before eating.
4. Eat less and eat more. As long as the body metabolizes food, it will produce calories, and the more you eat, the more calories you will have. So eat less and eat more meals, and try to eat less high-protein foods, because high-protein foods generate more calories when metabolized.
5, drink more chrysanthemum tea. When the weather is hot in summer, people are more likely to get angry. At this time, drinking chrysanthemum tea can not only cool down and brainwash, but also replenish water in the body.

How to cool down in hot weather 3? First of all, mint leaves are summer artifacts.
In fact, in the heat, our bodies can also feel cool, and it is mint that makes this cool. What makes people feel "cool" in mint is a substance called menthol, which can directly activate the cold receptors on the skin and produce a feeling similar to that under low temperature conditions. In fact, the physical temperature of the body has not decreased at this time, and people just feel a comfortable "cool" meaning.
Mentha and other ingredients make people feel cool, generally superficial or partial, which is very suitable for those who are both "greedy for cold" and "afraid of cold".
Second, hug the melon to sleep
Holding wax gourd to enjoy the cool is a folk law that has been circulating for a long time to cool off the summer. Wax gourd is used to cool down, which makes sense. The principle is that its water content is as high as 96%. It is cold because of its high water content. Wax gourd has high water content, which is beneficial to cooling, just like cooling with a water pillow. The skin of winter melon is cool, which has the function of clearing away heat and relieving summer heat.
Ye, a famous doctor in Qing Dynasty, recorded in the book "Herbal Rejuvenation" that the skin of winter melon has the functions of "peeling, dehumidifying and chasing wind, invigorating spleen and purging fire". Winter melon is called "winter melon" because its skin has a layer of white powder, which looks like winter frost, so it is named, but literally, it also hides the meaning of coolness.
Although the method of cooling wax gourd is simple and practical, it is not suitable for everyone. If it is a hot constitution, cooling is no problem. If it is cold constitution, such as yang deficiency constitution, spleen and stomach weakness, pregnant women and the elderly, it is best not to use this method to cool down, so as not to be hurt by the cold of winter melon skin.
Third, drink a bowl of sour plum soup.
Sour plum soup is a traditional summer drink. In the hot season, it is feasible to drink chilled soup to eliminate blood stasis, promote fluid production to quench thirst, inhibit lung qi, eliminate troubles and soothe the nerves. In addition, sour plum contains a special kind of citric acid, which can effectively inhibit lactic acid. When you are tired in summer, drinking a cup of sour plum soup can play a good refreshing role and rejuvenate muscles and blood vessels.
The raw materials of sour plum soup are ebony, hawthorn, osmanthus, licorice and other materials. The ratio of enucleated ebony to hawthorn is 3: 2, and then a portion of licorice is prepared. After boiling water on high fire, turn to low fire and cook for about 40 minutes. Add appropriate amount of rock sugar to taste according to taste, and then take it out of the pot. Drinking it after cooling or refrigeration is very effective for relieving summer heat and stimulating appetite.
Fourth, the mentality is peaceful and natural.
Peace of mind is natural and cool. In order not to be impatient in the sultry summer, the key is to keep a calm heart, just as the poet Bai Juyi said, "How to get rid of the summer heat and sit in the hospital?" There is no length in front of you, and there is a breeze under the window. "Of course, there are still many ways to cool off the heat: have a cup of tea and watch the wind light and the clouds light; Find a touch of green and smell the birds and flowers; Immerse yourself in the fragrance of one room and enjoy the spring breeze of ten miles ... Let your leisure flow in your own world.
When the weather is sultry, you should take part in social activities such as large-scale parties as little as possible, and increase the time for a person to be alone or have a quiet rest, which can effectively reduce the chance of "emotional heatstroke". When it is hot, try not to talk about topics that stimulate others, and choose topics that are relatively relaxed and pleasant. We should also pay attention to guiding children not to be too serious, to be open-minded and tolerant of others.
Five, the fan gently shaking
Feather fan shaking is a wise man's choice to cool off the heat. Although the fan is an "antique", the fitness effect is unmatched by any cooling equipment. Shake the fan to exercise the limbs (shaking the fan with the left hand can activate the right brain, develop the potential of the right brain and prevent stroke accidents). At the same time, fans got the most comfortable wind.
Rocking fan is a kind of unilateral limb exercise, which can not only exercise the joint muscles of limbs, but also exercise the contraction and relaxation functions of cerebral vessels. The results showed that most stroke patients suffered from microvascular rupture and bleeding in the right hemisphere, while most middle-aged and elderly people suffered from brain atrophy in the left hemisphere.
This is because most people are used to using their right hand for a long time, and their left hand exercises less, which leads to more exercise in the left hemisphere and less exercise in the right hemisphere. Therefore, you should consciously shake your left hand in summer. By strengthening the left hand movement, the right brain can be activated, the flexibility of the left limb and the atrophy of the body can be improved, the elasticity of the blood vessels in the right hemisphere can be enhanced, and the occurrence of cerebrovascular diseases can be reduced.
6. Mung bean soup is summer soup.
Mung beans are sweet and cool, which can clear gallbladder and nourish stomach, relieve summer heat and quench thirst. In the hot summer, mung bean porridge is an ideal summer-heat agent. It is best to directly boil mung bean soup with pure water. If not, add half a spoonful of white vinegar or squeeze half a spoonful of lemon juice into the water, but be careful not to add too much.
The specific method is to boil water first, then add mung beans, cover and continue to cook for 8- 10 minutes. Pour out the clear soup, so that the boiled mung bean soup can remain green in the air for a long time, and the effect of relieving summer heat is good. The remaining beans can be boiled into green bean paste or cooked with rice into mung bean porridge.
What needs special reminder is that you must never use an iron pot to cook mung beans. Because iron can catalyze the oxidative decomposition of various vitamins, the tannin in mung bean skin reacts with iron at high temperature and becomes black iron tannin, which makes mung bean soup black and affects the detoxification effect of mung beans, which is harmful to human body. When cooking mung bean soup, you can use casserole, stainless steel pot or special saucepan.
daydream
It's too hot, you might as well sit and have a rest, close your eyes and take a nap. Studies have shown that one of the body's reactions to daydreaming is to lower the body temperature. Do you need me to teach you? Who doesn't want to go to an island with fantastic scenery for a holiday in the sultry summer? You can imagine yourself lying under a coconut tree on the beach, staring at the blue sea in a daze, or jumping into the cool sea to swim.
Eight, take a hot bath
It's best to take a hot bath in summer. When people soak in warm water, the pores will open quickly and the heat in the body will be released. Through repeated soaking, the sweltering heat in the body can be completely eliminated and the symptoms can be cured. On the contrary, if people soak in cold water directly, the stimulated pores will close immediately. Although the skin will feel cool, the heat in the body can't be completely discharged, and it will still feel very hot after a while, which can't really cool down.
Nine, get some sleep
In the hot summer, the most important health lesson is to sleep at noon 1 1 ~ 1, and at night11~/. Try to take a lunch break at noon and sleep for half an hour to nourish yang and yin. Rest before 1 1 at night can nourish yin and nourish yang. "Napping" is the best way to maintain.
