Whenever you feel exhausted, do you always want to find a sunny place, bask in the sun, and "recharge" your body?

Can sunbathing really replenish our bodies with energy like refueling? Let's uncover this interesting scientific mystery together!

The Sun: The “Energy Master” of the Universe

First of all, we need to clarify the relationship between solar energy and human energy. Solar energy mainly refers to the electromagnetic wave energy radiated by the sun, including visible light, ultraviolet light and infrared light, etc. Human energy is a complex concept, which involves metabolism, bioelectricity, muscle activity and other aspects.

When sunlight hits the human body, the skin absorbs the ultraviolet rays, which act on skin cells to synthesize vitamin D precursors. Vitamin D is essential for human bone health, immune system function, etc.

Vitamin D can help us absorb calcium and phosphorus, making our bones stronger. So, from this perspective, sunbathing is really "refueling" our bodies!

In addition to providing the body with essential nutrients, the sun has another magical effect, which is to improve our mood. When you feel low and unhappy, go outside and let the sun shine on you. You will find that the haze and troubles seem to dissipate with the arrival of the sun.

This is because sunlight can stimulate the secretion of serotonin , the "happy hormone" in our brain, making us feel happy and relaxed.

Therefore, basking in the sun can also be said to be "recharging" our souls!

Although sunbathing has so many benefits, we can't do it blindly. After all, the sun's energy is so strong that excessive exposure to the sun can cause damage to our skin.

So how can we enjoy the benefits of sunlight while avoiding its potential risks?

1

Choose the right time

Generally speaking, the sun is milder before 10 a.m. and after 4 p.m., so it is more suitable to sunbathe at this time. Avoid direct exposure to the sun at noon.

2

Take protective measures

Take protective measures: When sunbathing, you can apply sunscreen, wear a hat and sunglasses to reduce direct damage from ultraviolet rays.

3

Control time length

Adjust the time of sun exposure appropriately according to your skin type and the local ultraviolet intensity. People who are sunbathing for the first time or have sensitive skin should start with a short period of time to gradually adapt.

4

Pay attention to your body's reactions

After sun exposure, pay attention to changes in your skin. If you experience redness, swelling, itching, or other symptoms, stop sun exposure immediately and seek medical advice.

When you feel exhausted, find a sunny place to bask in the sun!
