Acclimatization on vacation: how to behave so that your vacation is not overshadowed by unexpected surprises.

Summer is the traditional holiday season.. Someone chooses to rest nearby and does not leave the strip in which they usually live. And someone prefers to open up to change and goes on a trip to see distant lands. But travelers do not always think about how to protect their bodies from sudden climate change.. The body reacts to everything, adjusting to changes in the environment - temperature, pressure, humidity, daylight hours. And, if the adaptation process is not going well, the body begins to rebel.

A riot can take place in different ways: for example, in a hot climate, chills and a runny nose may suddenly occur. At night - insomnia occurs, during the day - increased heat transfer and, as a result, increased sweating, shortness of breath and increased heartbeat. Another scourge of the traveler is stomach problems.. This is not about food poisoning (although, of course, this risk also exists), but about how the body reacts to climate change.. The reaction can be individual and manifest as an upset stomach or, on the contrary, as constipation, which is sometimes called “traveler’s constipation”. The reasons for both are the same - accumulated fatigue, stress and stress on the road, plus stress from adapting to a new climate.

How to solve the problem with acclimatization?

There are some simple tips:.

· When traveling by plane or high-speed train, be more attentive to your well-being. The faster you move in space, the more resources your body needs to adapt to the new environment.. Therefore, by the way, the problem of adaptation is not particularly relevant for tourists who travel by bicycle, boat or on foot..

Don't reach for aspirin if you have symptoms of a cold - it's possible that this is a symptom of acclimatization. It is better to take 1-2 grams of vitamin C for several days..

If you suffer from insomnia, lie down for five minutes, throwing off the covers. Cooling will help the body tune into "

Increased sweating, palpitations, shortness of breath are typical features of acclimatization. To help the body go through this difficult period, you need to drink as much mineral water as possible, then the indicators will quickly return to normal..

· But you should eat less. All the forces of the body are involved in adaptation, and there is no need to “transfer” them to the digestion of too abundant and exotic food.. For constipation, it is also recommended to move and swim as much as possible..

Women should pay special attention to these tips - they react to climate change more sharply than men.. But there are general rules for both men and women. The main thing is that the acclimatization process lasts from three to seven days.. Therefore, if you have only one week of vacation, it is better to spend it in those parts whose climate is not particularly different from the usual. If the trip involves a change in climatic zones, then the vacation should last at least 2 weeks - then the body will have time to get used to the change in conditions and gain strength. And upon returning from vacation, it’s better to leave yourself a couple of free days to get into the usual rhythm, and only then go to work.
