Electrolytes should be appropriately supplemented during special periods

Recently, many supermarkets electrolyte water is frantically "replenishing", and like canned yellow peaches, the sales of electrolyte water were once out of stock
.
"My friend said that when I have a fever, I should drink more water but also electrolyte water, so I quickly came to the supermarket to scan some goods and stock
.
Mr.
Wang, outside Beijing's fifth ring road, picks out electrolyte water
in front of a supermarket shelf.

The shop owner said: "I only sold a box a few days ago, but now it is out of stock, and it is not easy to replenish the replenishment
.
" In this regard, experts remind not to deify electrolyte water, but electrolyte water is by no means an "IQ tax"
.

The health effects of electrolytes cannot be underestimated
.
Specifically, the role of electrolyte water can be interpreted
from the following two dimensions.

First of all, at the prevention level, the diagnosis and treatment plan for new coronavirus pneumonia issued by the National Health Commission (trial version 6) and the "Public Prevention Guidelines for Novel Coronavirus Pneumonia: Interim Guidelines for Dietary Nutrition" issued by the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention both mention "pay attention to the balance of water and electrolytes" or "appropriately supplement drinking water with a certain amount of electrolytes"
.

Professor Sun Shuxia, honorary president of the Food Nutrition and Safety Professional Committee of the China Health Care Association, said that in view of the risk of the new crown virus, we should improve personal immunity from several aspects:

First, a balanced
diet.
No less than 15 foods per day; Second, exercise in moderation
.
not less than 30 minutes a day; Third, drink plenty of water
.
Drink at least 1500ml of water every day, and supplement the appropriate amount of electrolyte water if possible, so as to enhance the activity of respiratory cilia movement, thereby improving immunity and enhancing resistance
.

Sun Shuxia explained: "Electrolyte water is stored in the human body for a long time, which can not only moisturize the mucous membrane of the respiratory tract, but also provide the electrolytes needed by the human body, which can better enhance the activity of cilia movement, thereby helping the body to excrete more germs through
coughing, sneezing and other ways.
" ”

Therefore, it is suitable to prepare some electrolyte water in a special period for emergencies
.
However, it should be noted that there are many types of electrolyte drinks on the market, electrolyte water drinks are not suitable for everyone, and the electrolyte content such as sodium and potassium is not as high as possible
.
Daily sweating supplement can choose low-sodium electrolyte water, and a large amount of sweating loss of body fluids can appropriately choose products
with high electrolyte content.
Electrolyte water should also be supplemented in appropriate amounts, especially for people with underlying diseases
.

Autumn and winter are the high season for colds and fevers, and superimposed on the current special period, the need for proper electrolyte replenishment after fever and sweating will also greatly increase
.

It is worth noting that supplementing electrolytes is not necessarily supplemented by electrolyte drinks, and some experts say that residents can make their own drinks at home, such as tea, coconut water, etc
.
And you can also supplement electrolytes
by boiling soup such as tomato soup and white radish boiled chicken soup.
