Sunbathing three parts of your body in early summer is the best way to prevent disease

I often hear elders say that sunbathing is good for the body. After I went to school, my teacher told me that sunbathing can supplement vitamin D and promote calcium absorption. But there is more to know about sunbathing than this. Too much sunbathing can also lead to some diseases. In addition, regularly exposing the three parts introduced below can prevent diseases! Come and have a look.

Sunbathing back, spleen and stomach

Professor Jiang from Beijing University of Chinese Medicine said that the front of our body is yin and the back is yang, and sunbathing the back can help replenish yang energy. Weak Yang Qi can cause cold hands and feet, and is often accompanied by discomfort in the spleen and stomach, such as the stomach is afraid of cold or prone to diarrhea after eating cold things. Sunbathing your back can dispel the coldness of the spleen and stomach and help improve digestive function. In addition, doctors in the Qing Dynasty pointed out that "the back is yang, and the heart and lungs govern it." Sunbathing the back can also dredge the back meridians, which is of great benefit to the heart and lungs.

Sunbathe your legs, no cramps

"Old cold legs" should be exposed to the sun more often. Jiang Liangduo said that sunbathing your legs can effectively drive away the coldness in your legs, effectively relieve calf cramps, and accelerate the absorption of calcium in your legs, making your leg bones stronger and effectively preventing osteoporosis. "Especially for people with rheumatoid arthritis, sunbathing can activate blood vessels, relieve symptoms, and play an auxiliary therapeutic role. In addition, there are many acupuncture points on the legs. Through the stimulation of sunlight, people can feel light legs and feet and eliminate fatigue.

Sunbathing your head to supplement calcium and promote hair growth

If the sun shines over our heads when we are basking in the sun, it can help our body fully absorb calcium.

Many people like to wear hats when basking in the sun, which defeats the purpose of basking in the sun. "Especially for children, parents are afraid that the sun will damage their delicate skin, so they always make their children wear hats." In fact, as long as you control the time and expose the child's head to the sun, it will help the development of the brain and the growth of head bones, and it is also beneficial to the growth of hair. The editor believes that it is best to sunbathe between 10 and 11 am. Because the ultraviolet rays in the sunlight during this period are relatively low, it can make people feel warm and soft. In addition, people of different age groups have different tolerance to sunlight and the length of time they should sunbathe also varies. Infants and young children should stay in the sun for about 15 to 30 minutes each time, young and middle-aged people should stay in the sun for 1 to 2 hours each time, and the elderly should stay in the sun for 20 to 30 minutes each time.
