Recently, due to the influence of the face of the sacred area, it has started to rain heavily in many places, making people want to stay at home and not leave. When it rains outside, it is normal to stay indoors, but do you know that walking in the rain may have unexpected benefits?
Why is walking in the rain good for health?The following are four health benefits of walking in the drizzle:
{9 99} 1. Better air qualityOne of the main benefits of walking in the rain is that the air is cleaner and fresher, and rainwater can escape the pollutants and allergens in the air, especially in large cities with severe pollution.
experts point out that water droplets that pass through the air when it rains absorb floating particles such as ash particles and pollutants in the air. When this situation occurs, the ash particles in the atmosphere will settle to the ground with raindrops, so that the air after the rain contains less allergens, ash and other particles, which has a positive impact on the respiratory system.
2. Effectively adjust the temperature of the bodyIn a warm environment, rainy weather can help adjust the temperature of the body more effectively, thereby preventing excessive heat during movement. Usually when you are moving, your body will generate heat, which causes the body to rise, and sweating can help you reduce the temperature.
However, when it rains, lower temperatures and raindrops will help dissipate the heat in the body. In addition, when it rains, the weather is often sunny, which usually means that the sun does not shine on people.
3. Burn more heatWalking in bad weather may help you burn more heat, which may be because people walk faster in the rain to avoid getting wet, and at this time the body will work harder and burn more calories.
In addition, the lower temperatures brought by rain will make your body work harder to maintain core temperature, which may also lead to higher energy and heat consumption to keep warm.
4. Helps reduce pressureExperts point out that the sound and smell of rain can have a decent effect on the spirit, thereby improving mood, promoting relaxation and reducing pressure.
This is called a "Petrichor" effect, which occurs when the smell of rain touches memory or mood.
When should we avoid walking in the rain?In some cases, you should avoid walking in the rain to ensure your safety and health.
1. There are risks of falling and inconvenienceIf you have risks of falling, or have records of falling before, or it is difficult to maintain body balance, it is best not to go out when it rains.
In addition, people with limited vision or activity ability, people whose health may be maligned by exposure to rain or cold weather, and those with injuries should also consider not to move in the rain.
2. Bad weather conditionsOf course, under bad weather conditions such as heavy rain, typhoon, electric shock, strong wind and mountain torrents, you should stay indoors.
Before you go out for a rainy day, you should check the local weather forecast first to see if there is a possibility of heavy rain in the basin, mountain torrent warning, electric risk or other weather-related hazards to ensure that you are prepared and safe.
