Instead of light food<\/a>, we eat HOT food\u00a0and\u00a0drink hot tea. For example, hot and spicy foods like hot pot work surprisingly well. We go to hot springs in summer. Lots of people take hot showers or hot baths. According to the doctors, doing these \u201chot things\u201d will cause something called vasodilatation, promoting sweating, taking the heat out of the body to really cool the temperature down.<\/p>\n

2. Six God toilet water\/floral water (<\/span>\u516d\u795e\u82b1\u9732\u6c34<\/span>\u00a0Liu Shen Hua lu\u00a0<\/span>shui)<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Have you heard of six god water? It\u2019s a special water that\u2019s used in bath water or just applied all over one\u2019s body. It really cools down your body quickly and lasts for quite a long time (within reason). And its low price makes it all the more tempting.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

3.\u00a0Fill up cool water in a bottle and put it under your armpit.<\/strong><\/p>\n

There are large vessels passing through here and it\u2019s close to the body surface, so these areas are highly efficient in heat exchange. When the blood is cooler here, it will immediately flow into the heart. The heart pumps the blood into the lungs and then goes to the whole body. The key of this trick is to not use freezing cold water in case it\u2019s too cold for you.<\/p>\n
