How to prevent heatstroke in summer?

1. Get enough sleep. Arrange your rest time reasonably and ensure enough sleep to maintain sufficient physical energy and achieve the purpose of preventing heatstroke.

2. Scientific and reasonable diet. Eat a lot of vegetables, fruits and appropriate amounts of animal protein and fat to replenish physical energy and avoid dieting.

3. Take sun protection measures. During outdoor activities, avoid direct sunlight on your head, avoid direct absorption of radiant heat by your skin, and wear a hat and loose clothing.

4. Drink water reasonably. Pay attention to drinking an appropriate amount of water. Don't wait until you are thirsty before drinking. After sweating a lot, drink some salted water to replenish the salt lost in the body.

5. Strengthen exercise. Strengthen heat-resistant exercise, improve body temperature regulation function, and enhance heat adaptability, which can enhance physical fitness and prevent heatstroke.

6. Prepare anti-stroke medicines. The midsummer heat is approaching, and the hot weather often causes people to eat tasteless, sleep poorly, and easily suffer from dizziness, headaches, fatigue, and even nausea and vomiting. It is necessary for families to prepare some heatstroke prevention medicines for this purpose. For example, Rendan, cooling oil, ten drops of water, Huoxiang Zhengqi tablets (pills, water), etc.

7. Open and close doors and windows reasonably. During the day, when the outdoor temperature is high and the doors and windows are wide open, sunlight and heat radiation rush into the room along with bursts of hot air, making the indoors and outdoors generally hot. If you open the doors and windows for ventilation in the morning and evening when it is cool to allow air to circulate, and close the doors and windows during the day, especially at noon, to isolate the invasion of outdoor hot air, and draw light-colored curtains to block sunlight and reflect heat radiation, you can make the room more beautiful. It's cooler.

8. Balcony greening and courtyard greening. Greening the balcony, courtyard, and planting trees and flowers not only have high ornamental value, but also regulate the microclimate, making the air fresh, cool and pleasant. Because green plants can not only shade the sun, but also achieve cooling through evaporation of water from the leaves.

9. Use fans and water evaporation to cool down indoors. If you don't have an air conditioner at home, you can make your room cooler by using some simple methods. For example, after wiping the floor with a wet mop indoors, turn on the ceiling fan to evaporate the water on the ground and absorb heat; you can also place a basin of cold water in front of the fan and turn on the fan to evaporate the water and release cool air, which can lower the room temperature.

People have their own tricks to deal with the scorching heat. But some tricks may cause harm to people's health after enjoying temporary comfort. Therefore, you should pay attention to the following five don'ts when dealing with the scorching heat of summer.

1. The temperature should not drop too fast. The method of "rapid cooling" often makes people feel happy for a while but uncomfortable for a few days, and even cause various diseases.

2. The air conditioner should not be too cold. The temperature of the room should constantly change between 26℃ and 29℃, which is better for health.

3. Don’t drink too much water. In the hot summer, after people sweat a lot, drinking a lot of plain water without supplementing the salt may cause muscle twitching or muscle spasm pain.

4. Clothes should not be too revealing. On hot summer days, the maximum temperature is generally close to or exceeds 37°C. The body's way of dissipating heat is mainly through sweating and evaporation. Being bare-chested will absorb heat from the external environment, making people feel hotter.

5. Sunglasses should not be too dark. Lenses that are too dark will seriously affect visibility and cause eye damage due to difficulty seeing.
