So how to prevent colds in life? This article will tell you how to prevent colds. Let's learn together. Don't let colds find you.
Ways to prevent colds
1. Don't overwork
Researchers found that overwork and often staying up late can lead to a decline in immunity, so that the human body 'disarms and surrenders' in the face of a cold. Therefore, sleeping early every night is a good way to prevent diseases.
2. Wear a mask to keep warm
33 ℃ is just the temperature in the nose of most people in winter. Rhinovirus grows and reproduces more easily below 33 ℃. Therefore, to prevent a cold, you should wear a mask to keep warm. Only covering your nose can help prevent a cold.
3. Indoor ventilation, less air pollution
At home, insist on opening windows for ventilation every morning for no less than 15 minutes; Try not to go to places with poor ventilation. Because the concentration of virus is the highest in that place, if a person has a cold, he can bring out the virus through sneezing and infect a large number of people.
4. Wash hands and gargle when you go out
After going out and going home, the first thing is to wash your hands with soap and running water and rinse your mouth with clean water. Japanese studies have found that this can reduce the risk of catching a cold by 36%.
5. Pay attention to reasonable diet
Eating an appropriate amount of protein, vitamin E, vitamin C, carotene, vitamin B, zinc, selenium, calcium, magnesium and other substances can increase the number of human immune cells, and the lack of these nutrients will seriously affect the function of the body's immune system. As long as we eat on time, don't be picky about food, and pay attention to the combination of meat and vegetables and coarse and fine grains, we can meet the normal nutritional needs of the human body.
6. Strengthen physical exercise and enhance physique
It is suggested to choose mild items, such as walking, cycling, jogging, dancing, Taijiquan, qigong, etc. high-intensity sports such as marathon can not enhance immunity, but weaken immune function.
