The 39-40 degree sun is upsetting many people's lives. Not many anti-hot ways are used like ice water, cold air conditioning . but they are counterintuitive and can harm your body.

People have to find ways to resist the 40 degree Celsius heat by their own methods such as using misting fans, putting water pots in the house .

Drink ice for refreshment as soon as you go home

People often have the habit of immediately drinking a glass of cool ice, especially carbonated soft drinks to reduce thirst after the time outdoors. But is this a good way to reduce heat? Please answer this question with expert Le Thi Hai, director of the Center for nutrition examination and counseling, National Nutrition Institute.

According to Le Thi Hai, the time when going outside in the sun is not suitable to drink the above-mentioned water. Because in cold water, the molecules are very integrated so it is very difficult to absorb into the card, so it does not help you to cool down the bags but also harm the body if forming habits, simply because the body is not enough water supply for the activity of cells.

It is not suitable to drink cold ice in the sun.

Adding 'really unbelievable' is that warm water or cold boiled water can compensate for the lost water quickly because the single molecules are easier to absorb and the cells are faster than cold water. So, what do you need to keep in mind during this hot season:

1. People who feel cold, sunstroke, or sweaty if they drink cold water will find it difficult to dissipate heat, increasing the risk of fever.
2. Should drink filtered water regularly, avoid carbonated drinks, high in energy.

3. Air conditioner should add a ventilation fan to exchange air with the outside.
4. Avoid adding an extra pot of water in the room using air conditioning because it is very dangerous, especially for children. The steam will attract dirt and pathogenic bacteria.
5. The temperature in the air-conditioned room is not more than 5 degrees Celsius with the outdoor temperature.
6. Families should regularly open wind-exchange windows to ensure convection exchange between air in and out.

Fall into the water as soon as it is sunny or active

Going out in the sun or moving hard will make your body sweat a lot, your body temperature will increase so you need to 'cool down' immediately. But if bathing at this time is very dangerous because the body temperature suddenly changes, which can lead to stroke.

Let the body sweat, rest a little before bathing will be better. Families should also avoid letting children soak in water for too long, especially when going to the beach because it is very susceptible to colds.
