Every summer, more people prefer to stay indoors and blow air-conditioning rather than the sweltering heat outdoors. Didn’t even turn it off when sleeping, blowing the air conditioner all night. In fact, the correct air-conditioning can help the human body maintain normal body temperature, said Chris. Chris Brantner said that our bodies are more used to cooling than warm temperatures, so it is recommended that people turn on the air conditioner to sleep, but there are three health risks to be aware of. This article will take everyone to know about it. What are the risks of air conditioning at night?
The most comfortable sleep temperature is about 15~20°C, which will stimulate the body to secrete melatonin, help fight aging, slow down the formation of wrinkles and age spots, and improve the health of the body. In addition, you can also measure the outdoor temperature, but the minimum indoor temperature should not be lower than the outdoor temperature by seven degrees.
Air-conditioning absorbs moisture to accelerate aging
Air-conditioning not only absorbs the moisture in the room, but also absorbs the moisture from our body, which makes our skin dry and lose its original elasticity. In addition, it will accelerate aging symptoms and cause other skin problems. If you stay in such an environment for a long time, your nose, throat and respiratory tract will be uncomfortable, and your eyes will become red and blurred due to lack of water.
In order to avoid the skin becoming very dry after waking up, please do not sleep in the place facing the air outlet of the air conditioner. If it is unavoidable, you may wish to adjust to the swing mode, or adjust the direction of the air outlet to upward. It can cause discomfort to the mucous membranes of the eyes, nose, throat, and mouth.
Close the doors and windows, the air does not circulate
Turning on the air conditioner will close the doors and windows to prevent the cold air from flowing out, but at the same time, it will also cause the space to be unventilated and lack of fresh air to come in, and people will have a sense of permanent fatigue in an environment with no air circulation, which will lead to morbidity in severe cases. Sick Building Syndrome (SBS), also known as Building Bad Syndrome, refers to some uncomfortable symptoms such as sneezing, throat discomfort, chest tightness, fever or chills due to poor indoor air quality in confined spaces. , but the exact cause of sick building syndrome remains unclear.
In addition, if the air conditioning system and air outlets are not cleaned regularly, they will also become a source of pathogens, worsen air quality, and even cause symptoms such as difficulty breathing.
Too cold can cause rheumatism headache
Have you ever had the experience of being woken up in the middle of the night? Too cold is not a good thing, because it can cause rheumatism in the muscles and joints, and cause headaches, back pain, and severe arthritis. As for babies, although there is no so-called standard safe temperature, in order to avoid overheating of babies, it is the best way to ensure that their faces are facing up. The air-conditioning temperature is set between 24~26°C. If you use a fan, please do not face it directly. They blow.
To prevent the space from getting too cold, it is a good idea to set a timer to shut down or increase the temperature, or turn on the air conditioner before going to bed, and then turn it off when you are going to sleep. This will ensure that the room will not heat up and will also save electricity bills. In addition, wearing light pajamas, covering a thin quilt, and exposing your hands and feet to the quilt can improve sleep quality.
