Can someone over 45 take a cold shower? Don't do 3 things in summer, or can prolong life
Bathing is something people do every day, but due to regional differences, the frequency of bathing between southerners and northerners will also be different. The north is relatively dry and dehydrated, and it is often necessary to take a bath once a week.
In fact, in addition to the external dust, people will also carry out metabolism in the body, so the waste that cannot be decomposed will be deposited in the skin, especially in the humid south, it is necessary to take a bath every day. In addition, people over the age of 45 will have poor immunity. At this time, they need to avoid the misunderstanding of bathing. These three things should be done less often:
- Middle-aged people take cold showers
Many people like to take cold showers when they are young, especially in hot summer. However, after the age of 45, the function of the body will deteriorate, and the skin will react more strongly to the outside. At this time, it is easy to catch a cold with a cold shower, and some people will experience dizziness, fever and other discomfort.
If you really can't control yourself to wash in cold water, then you must "test the temperature" first. Apply water all over the body first, wait until the body begins to adapt to the low temperature, and then slowly pour cold water on the body. When discomfort occurs, be sure to stop bathing in time, put on clothes and drink some hot water to avoid fainting. It is recommended to take a cold shower without taking a cold shower to avoid harm to the body.
- Middle-aged people should not take a bath after exercising
In order to enhance their physical fitness, middle-aged people usually do a certain amount of exercise. But in summer, it's hotter, people will sweat when they move a little bit, and the sticky feeling on the body is really unpleasant. Therefore, many people take a bath directly after exercising, which can wash away the bacteria and sweat on the body, and make people feel refreshed instantly.
In fact, after exercising in summer, the blood flow speeds up, and people's face and body will appear red at this time, which is the result of overactive blood. If you take a bath immediately at this time, the skin will be in a state of expansion, which is equivalent to cooling the blood. At this time, the blood flow rate suddenly changes greatly, and the internal circulation of the body is disrupted, which is prone to dizziness and dehydration. It is recommended to rest for half an hour after exercising, and wait until the body calms down before taking a bath.
- Middle-aged people take frequent baths
When you take a bath, you will find that there is a lot of "mud" on your body. At this time, everyone will naturally want to remove it all. In fact, the mud on the skin is too clean, and it is prone to itching. So taking a bath several times a day is a bad habit, it is easy to protect the stratum corneum of the skin. This results in redness of the skin.
