Clothing is not only closely related to people's love of beauty, but also affects people's mental outlook and behavior, which has an important impact on human health. Human health clothes
Has the following functions:
(1) Climate adjustment: People use clothing to alleviate the external environmental conditions and create a "clothing climate" with suitable temperature around their bodies, which is the climate adjustment of clothing. The climate regulation of clothing requires wearing clothing to create a climate suitable for human physiology under a certain external climate environment.
(2) Protect the skin surface clean: Skin makes the human body in direct contact with the outside world, which is related to the protection of human health and life. One of the main functions of skin is to excrete human waste. Sebum secretion and epidermal cell shedding are the main pollution sources of clothes. The function of underwear is to absorb these pollutants in time and ensure the cleanliness of the skin. At the same time, clothing should be able to resist external dust, soot and other powder pollution, so as not to invade the skin and cause pollution. If the clothes are polluted for a long time, it is not only uncomfortable to wear, but also easy to breed fungi and induce skin diseases. Therefore, clothes must be washed frequently, kept clean and hygienic, and disinfected when necessary.
(3) Protecting the body: Protecting the body from environmental damage is one of the important functions of clothing, especially work clothes. For example, in order to prevent the injury of mechanical external force, clothing should have strong toughness; In order to prevent the harm of harmful substances, clothing should be resistant to drug penetration and corrosion; Such as radiation protection, fire prevention, insulation and so on, are also important characteristics of some work clothes. With the development of modern science and technology, clothing is also required to keep the staff's body unchanged as much as possible in space, deep sea and other environments.
(4) Easy to move: The lighter the clothes, the better for health. There is no restriction on people's actions, which does not hinder breathing and blood circulation, and does not affect development. Clothing should also have a certain degree of thermal insulation. However, if the total weight of clothes exceeds 4 kg, it will seriously hinder the action. The insulation of the suit has reached saturation when it is increased to 6 floors, and the insulation effect will not increase if more floors are added.
(5) Conducive to growth and development: Conducive to growth and development is an important condition for infant clothing. In addition, it is understandable to add clothes in cold weather. However, wearing too many clothes is inappropriate, which will raise the body temperature, hinder heat dissipation and dampness, weaken the body's ability to adapt to the outside world and resist injuries, and even easily catch a cold. We should also pay attention to reducing the oppression of clothes on the body, especially local oppression, such as girding the waist and abdomen. In short, we should establish the idea that clothing should serve human health and strive to develop scientific and beautiful clothing.
2. What is the effect of clothing color on health?
The primary function of clothes is to cover the body and keep out the cold. But the color of clothing has a subtle influence on people's psychological mood and health. Different colors will give different stimuli to the brain and produce different psychological feelings. Some colors are pleasing to the eye and make people feel happy; Some colors are dazzling and exciting; Some colors are warm and exciting; Some colors are softer and make people quiet. So when we choose clothes, besides the style, the most important thing is to choose its color. Perfect color matching makes people feel happy and confident, which is directly related to people's physical and mental health. What effect does color have on human body? Color stimulates and excites human optic nerve, and this impulse is transmitted to cerebral cortex through neural channels. After comprehensive analysis of cerebral cortex, impulses are transmitted back to hypothalamus, which produces neurotransmitters, thus effectively controlling and regulating people's emotions, basic human functions and endocrine system, thus affecting human health. A large number of studies have confirmed the influence of various colors on human health. In daily life, most people also have the experience of the psychological influence of clothing color. Appropriate clothes should be the unity of beauty and health care. Clothing has different health care requirements for different people and different environments. The ancients said: length, width and narrowness fit the body, thickness and style are timely. Excellent vertical collar is easy to cause jugular vein asphyxia syndrome, arrhythmia or cerebral ischemia. Patients with hemorrhoids should avoid excessive waist binding and increase abdominal pressure. For the elderly and infirm patients, try not to wear hooded clothes, which is conducive to taking off and putting on. People with chronic lumbar muscle strain can wear "waist protection" ... In short, dressing must meet physiological conditions and be healthy.
Old people should not wear tight clothes. Especially in summer, if you often wear tight clothes, it will cause eczema, rash and other diseases because of poor perspiration. Then old women often wear tight underwear, which is easy to be infected by mold and cause inflammation.
Half-dry and not wet clothes will get sick. Especially when wet underwear is worn on the body, after the moisture on the clothes volatilizes, it will have a cold effect on the skin, shrink the small blood vessels of the skin, lead to the decline of the body's resistance, and thus induce a cold. The human body surface temperature is about 32℃, which is different from the absorbed water, and the human body temperature regulation center can't adapt to this obvious difference. Often wearing semi-dry and non-wet clothes will cause physical discomfort, headache and fever, and in severe cases, diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis will occur.
Clothing color and emotion
Although the primary function of clothing is to protect the body from the cold, the color of clothing has a very subtle influence on people's psychological mood and health. Different colors will give different stimuli to the brain and produce different psychological feelings. Some colors are pleasing to the eye and make people feel happy; Some colors are dazzling and exciting; Some colors are warm and exciting; Some colors are softer and make people quiet.
In summer, the colors that absorb radiant heat from weak to strong are: white, khaki, beige, green, red, cyan and black. Old people are not suitable for wearing dark clothes in summer.
For the elderly, if you are psychologically eager for stable emotions and want to reduce the pressure caused by tension, then you should choose dark colors; On the contrary, if you want to give full play to your creativity mentally, you should choose bright colors.
Perfect color matching makes people feel happy and confident. Color stimulates and excites human optic nerve, which is transmitted to cerebral cortex through neural channels, thus effectively controlling and regulating human emotions and endocrine system.
Health care function of clothing
Fitness dress can be casual, but scientific. Old people must pay attention to their clothes when exercising. Especially choose the shoes under your feet. To wear shoes that fit well and have good elasticity, you can also choose running shoes and comprehensive sports shoes. During exercise, especially when running and jumping, the reaction of the ground to the human body will be transmitted upward through the shoes on the feet, which will have different degrees of influence on the ankle joint, knee joint, spine, brain and internal organs. Over time, it will cause joint strain and other adverse reactions, such as dizziness and nausea. Better quality shoes can cushion the impact of the ground and reduce the possibility of human injury.
In addition, people who like to do aerobics can choose elastic sportswear, and it is best to be free. Cotton-padded jacket is sweat-absorbent and suitable for sports. Some people like to wear chemical fiber tights for exercise in order to lose weight. In fact, this is very limited to help them lose weight. Because chemical fiber tights can make people sweat a lot during exercise, the lost weight is easy to rebound. In addition, this kind of clothing will also hinder physical activities and affect the exercise effect.
The lighter the clothes, the better for your health. There is no restriction on people's actions, and it does not interfere with breathing and blood circulation. If the total weight of clothes exceeds 4 kg, it will seriously hinder the movement.
