Due to the climate in summer, the weather is hotter, the heat and humidity are heavier, and the human body consumes a lot of energy. It will lead to the weakening of gastrointestinal motility, which can easily cause indigestion and loss of appetite.
Especially for people who work outdoors, sweating a lot is easy to cause physical decline and increase the risk of dehydration and heat stroke. There have been a lot of heatstroke incidents reported in the news recently.

If you want to maintain a normal pH in your body, you need to eat more alkaline foods. It can not only maintain the acid-base balance, but also prevent heatstroke and dampness, relieve fatigue, refresh the mind and so on.
In summer, eat more melon vegetables, such as cucumber, loofah, bitter gourd, etc. The water content of these vegetables is very high, mostly above 90%. In addition to being beneficial to the body's acid-base balance, it also lowers blood pressure and protects blood vessels.
In addition, in summer, you need to replenish water, sodium, potassium, and B vitamins. You can't just drink boiled water and functional drinks.

Cucumbers have high nutritional value and are rich in nutrients such as protein, carotene, and calcium. It has the effect of clearing away heat and quenching thirst, diuresis and swelling. Eating more cucumbers in summer is healthy and healthy.
In addition, cucumber can quickly replenish the lost water of the human body, and the potassium element it contains can relieve fatigue,
Cucumbers are also rich in vitamin E, which can reduce wrinkles if you eat them regularly.
