Dog days, also known as the hot summer, are the hottest time of summer, usually between the light and the heat, around mid-July and mid-August. During this time, the temperature is high, the humidity is high, and the weather is hot and sultry, which has a certain impact on people's lives and health.
The temperature on dog days is generally above 30 degrees Celsius and can even reach around 40 degrees Celsius. Due to the high humidity, the human body is prone to sweating, but it is difficult for sweat to evaporate, resulting in difficulty in dissipating heat in the body, which can easily cause heatstroke, heat stroke and other heat-related diseases. Therefore, it is necessary to pay attention to heatstroke prevention and cooling during dog days, and try to avoid prolonged exposure to the sun under the scorching sun. In addition to high temperatures, dog days are also prone to meteorological disasters such as thundershowers and short-term heavy precipitation, which bring inconvenience to people's lives. At the same time, due to the high temperature and humidity, food is easy to rot and spoil, which can also easily cause intestinal diseases and food poisoning. To cope with the heat and high humidity of dog days, there are a few things one can do. First of all, drink plenty of water to replenish the water your body needs. Second, try to wear loose, breathable, sweat-wicking clothing to keep your body dry. In addition, you can use cooling equipment such as air conditioners and fans to reduce the indoor temperature, and at the same time, you should pay attention to the reasonable use of electrical appliances to avoid electrical safety accidents. In terms of diet, one should eat more light and easy-to-digest foods such as fruits, vegetables, porridge, etc. At the same time, it is necessary to avoid excessive consumption of raw and cold foods to avoid gastrointestinal discomfort. In addition, moderate amounts of exercise, such as walking, jogging, etc., can be done to strengthen the body's resistance. In short, dog days are the hottest time of summer, so pay attention to heat prevention and cooling down and maintain good health. With a reasonable diet and exercise, as well as the use of cooling equipment, the discomfort caused by dog days can be effectively relieved.
