Arab weather - some of us may prefer the summer because of the summer holidays, playing under the sun and eating ice cream, however summer air may be annoying sometimes, especially if the air is humid and heavy, so we find some people prefer autumn or winter because of the cold air, where they find the air fresh and fresh Is breathing cold air really more refreshing than warm air?

 

When we say that the air is fresh, we mean that it is clear, clean and dry, and cold air is drier than warm air, cold air carries less water vapor, but in the summer heat causes an increase in water vapor in the air, and this is the reason for feeling humid.

 

The second reason we feel that cold air is more refreshing is that cold air is cleaner than warm air, as the layers of air in the atmosphere tend to mix when temperatures drop, and this reduces the concentration of pollution, which makes the air cleaner and easier to breathe, and this is the reason. That makes inhaling cold air much healthier for many people.

 

In addition to the above, cold air smells better than warm air, and there are two reasons for this: First, the slower movement of odor molecules in cold weather, meaning less smell can reach our noses. Second, we are not good at smelling when the weather is cold, as our smell sensors hide deeper in our noses during cold weather to protect themselves, and thus the smells we sense reduce.

 

Most of us may feel comfortable in the first cold day after a hot summer, our brains have a special area called the hypothalamus (Hypothalamus) works as an organizer for the heat of our bodies, this part starts doing some actions that will help us to maintain the temperature of the body, this is what makes us Ntarq in the summer Hot, and we shiver in the cold winter, but over time our bodies adapt to long periods of heat or cold, and during the summer, our bodies get used to dealing with heat, as they work hard all the time to cool down, and when the first sign of cold weather appears, our bodies relax and revive.

 

Cold weather is not only refreshing, but also has many benefits for our bodies, as cold air helps us think more clearly, as studies indicate that when the weather is cold, people can think about problems and solve them in a better way. It makes us sleep better, as many sleep scientists recommend sleeping in a cool room when the weather is warm.

 

However, cold air can be dangerous as well, while cold weather can be healthier for many people, asthmatics should exercise caution, cold weather can sometimes cause difficulty breathing, in addition, exposure can constitute Extreme cold has very serious health risks, including frostbite and hypothermia.
