If you sweat too much, you need to replenish the loss of sweat!

In recent days, many areas across the country have entered the "high temperature" mode. Even if you stay in an air-conditioned room, you will sweat all over. In some areas, the temperature has even exceeded 40℃, which has greatly affected people's daily lives. In addition to paying attention to heatstroke prevention, what should you replenish your body when you excrete a lot of sweat?

Potassium supplementation

As a large amount of sweat flows out, the potassium in the body is also lost. Therefore, in addition to replenishing the large amount of water needed by the body, you can also eat more foods rich in potassium. Potassium is an important component in the human body and is stored in cells. It plays a vital role in cell metabolism, maintaining the acid-base balance in the body, and nerves and muscles. Seaweed generally contains more potassium. The potassium content in seaweed is 1.5 times that of sodium, the potassium content in kelp is 2.2 times that of sodium, and the potassium content in cape kelp is 3.1 times that of sodium. Therefore, in summer, you can eat more seaweed steamed fish, seaweed egg soup, cold kelp shreds, kelp pork ribs soup, etc. In addition, fresh fruits and vegetables also contain a lot of potassium. Among fruits, watermelon is rich in potassium and you can eat more of it. In addition, you can also eat more fruits such as apricots, strawberries, bananas, oranges, and grapefruits. Among vegetables, amaranth, cabbage, celery, coriander, spinach, green garlic, green onions, asparagus, yam, potatoes, edamame, soybeans, and peas also have high potassium content and you can eat more of them. And foods rich in potassium can also prevent dizziness, headaches, fatigue, and lack of energy.

Vitamin supplement

A large amount of sweat is discharged from the body, and in addition to the loss of potassium, it also increases the discharge of water-soluble vitamins (especially vitamin C), which can easily cause vitamin deficiency in the body. Therefore, the demand for vitamins in summer is higher than in the other three seasons. You can eat more foods rich in vitamin B and vitamin C. Animal liver, milk, beans, eggs, celery, lean meat, etc. can provide vitamin B; while vitamin C mainly comes from fresh vegetables and fruits, such as bell peppers, green vegetables, leeks and other green leafy vegetables and tomatoes, cauliflower, and tangerines, red fruits, oranges, oranges, grapes and other fruits. Wild amaranth, sea buckthorn, sea roxburghii, alfalfa, sour dates, kiwis and other fruits have high vitamin C content, so you can eat more of them according to the situation.
