Introduction
Under normal circumstances, Huoxiang Zhengqi Water can help prevent heatstroke to some extent, but it is not suitable for all types of heatstroke. It is mainly applicable for the prevention of heatstroke caused by summer heat-dampness. During high-temperature weather, in addition to considering the use of Huoxiang Zhengqi Water based on environmental conditions, one should also avoid staying in hot and humid environments for prolonged periods and ensure timely hydration.

Generally, Huoxiang Zhengqi Water can help prevent heatstroke to some extent, but it is not suitable for all types of heatstroke. It is mainly applicable for the prevention of heatstroke caused by summer heat-dampness. The detailed explanation is as follows:

If you are in a high temperature and high humidity environment and experience symptoms such as dizziness, chest tightness, nausea, and other discomforts caused by summer heat-dampness, taking Huoxiang Zhengqi Water in advance may play a certain preventive role. Huoxiang Zhengqi Water contains ingredients such as Agastache (Huoxiang) and Perilla (Zisu), which have the effects of relieving exterior symptoms, resolving dampness, regulating qi, and harmonizing the middle jiao. It can alleviate physical discomfort caused by summer heat-dampness and is suitable for use in hot and humid environments.

Although Huoxiang Zhengqi Water can relieve discomfort caused by summer heat-dampness, its effectiveness in preventing heatstroke caused by high temperatures and prolonged sun exposure is limited. This type of heatstroke is primarily caused by difficulties in body heat dissipation and heat accumulation. Huoxiang Zhengqi Water cannot directly assist in cooling the body, so prevention should focus more on shade and hydration.

In hot weather, besides considering the use of Huoxiang Zhengqi Water according to environmental conditions, it is also important to avoid staying in hot and stuffy environments for prolonged periods, replenish fluids promptly, and wear breathable clothing. These measures are more crucial for preventing heatstroke and can effectively reduce the likelihood of heatstroke occurrence.
