1. Frequent and uncontrollable hiccups If you inhale too much air without realizing it, you will burp frequently. A normal person inhales about one teaspoon of air at a time. If they inhale too much at one time, the body will protest. At this time, you can take a deep breath, then hold your breath, bend over to 90 degrees, and hold on for about 10 seconds and the hiccups will stop. If this method is ineffective and is accompanied by abdominal discomfort, indigestion, bloating or mild nausea, you need to be alert to Helicobacter pylori infection or pantothenic acid. 2. Bad breath no matter how much you brush your teeth Bad breath is caused by bacteria breaking down food residue in the mouth, producing sulfur compounds that give off a foul odor. Even if you brush your teeth very well, bacteria and food particles left on your tongue will still cause bad odor. Therefore, it is recommended that people with bad breath brush their tongue coating while brushing their teeth. A survey conducted by New York University in the United States shows that people who spend one minute cleaning their teeth and tongue twice a day will get rid of 53% of bad breath after two weeks. Using a mouthwash with antibacterial ingredients such as chlorine, cetylpyridinium chloride, zinc lactate, or chlorine dioxide can also be effective. In addition, some stubborn bad breath may also be a symptom of dry mouth, sinus infection, acid reflux, gastrointestinal or respiratory tract infection, and you need to consult a doctor. 3. There is always a sweat odor on the body Stubborn body odor can be caused by food, bacteria in your sweat, or even your emotions. To solve this problem, you should first wash your underarms and surrounding areas twice a day with soap (if sweat odor reappears during the day, you can use alcohol wipes to clean it). Secondly, using antiperspirant or deodorant after taking a shower at night can effectively inhibit bacterial growth. Third, humid environments are prone to breeding bacteria, so try to wear loose, breathable clothes made of natural fibers to facilitate the evaporation of sweat. Finally, pay attention to your daily diet. Foods such as garlic, onion, chili, black pepper, cheese, cabbage, radish, salted fish, etc. will aggravate sweat odor. 4. Hair follicle abscess on the body Abscesses are caused by hair follicles being infected by Staphylococcus aureus. They appear as small pustules or blood bags at the roots of hair and continue to spread. There are many ways to prevent its spread: wash your hands frequently; take a good shower after swimming or taking a sauna; do not use greasy sunscreen; keep razor blades clean and disinfect them by soaking them in alcohol after replacing them; when an abscess appears, rinse the wound first, apply antibiotic ointment, and then cover it with a clean bandage until the wound heals; do not share razors, towels, or clothes with your family. 5. The more you wash, the more Dandruff is caused by many reasons, such as dry scalp, fungal infection, etc. If the dandruff is mild, it is recommended to switch to a mild shampoo. If your dandruff doesn't improve, you can find the right anti-dandruff shampoo through trial and error. Different anti-dandruff shampoo ingredients have different functions. For example, zinc pyrithione mainly fights fungi and bacteria; ketoconazole can remove fungi; coal tar and selenium sulfide can slow the growth of scalp cells; salicylic acid helps to thoroughly clean dandruff. If one ingredient is ineffective, you can buy two or more and use them alternately. If symptoms do not subside after a few weeks, consult a doctor. 6. Your feet are like poison gas bombs If you want to beat foot odor, controlling foot sweat is crucial. There are many sweat glands in the feet. After wearing shoes for several hours, the protein in the sweat will cause bacteria to grow, produce isovaleric acid and emit a bad odor. Therefore, you should change your socks at least once a day, wash your feet with soap every day, wear shoes made of natural breathable materials (such as leather shoes or canvas shoes), and let the worn shoes dry and ventilate thoroughly. If foot odor still exists, you can add some vinegar to the water in a ratio of 2:1 and soak your feet at least once a week to kill bacteria. 7. Farting frequently Surveys show that the average person farts 13 to 21 times a day. To reduce the production of waste gas in the body, you should eat less beans, broccoli, cabbage and asparagus. These foods contain raffinose, which is difficult to digest and can increase the chance of gas. 8. Urinary incontinence when laughing Being overweight and smoking increase your risk of stress incontinence. Aging, hormonal changes, and pregnancy can also weaken the pelvic floor muscles and reduce the ability of the urethra to close tightly. Pelvic floor muscle exercises can reduce urinary incontinence by 60%. The specific method is: tighten your buttocks muscles for 3 seconds, then relax for 3 seconds, and slowly increase to 10 seconds each time. 10 times constitutes a set, and do 3 sets a day. 9. Nose hair is as messy as weeds When nose hair grows out, never pull it out directly, otherwise it will cause infection. The best way to clean it up is to use scissors and cut it off in a well-lit area. Hold your breath while trimming to prevent accidental inhalation into your nasal cavity. 10. Often can’t remember names Aging, increased stress, and doing several things at once can all lead to memory loss. It's normal to forget a name, an appointment, or where you left your keys from time to time. If you find that your memory has deteriorated, you can consume some brain-boosting foods such as milk, eggs, fish, spinach, etc. |
