How to Protect Yourself From Heat
We have been experiencing extreme hot weather condition on a daily basis. Yes, there is no stopping summer. Just the other day, we experienced 34.5 degrees Celsius.
I am sure that even if there are people who are gearing for rv repairs for their road trips, more are worried about their crops or lack of it due to El Nino phenomenon.
I have read somewhere that the weather will reach up to 40 degrees. Ugh!
It is important then to know how to protect yourself from heat:
- Drink plenty of fluids, if possible more than 8 glasses per day.
- Replace lost salt by drinking sports drinks. Salts and minerals are lost because of sweating.
- Use sunscreen whenever you will be under the heat of the sun.
- Avoid being directly under the sun from 10am till 2pm.
- Wear clothes made of light materials.
- Monitor those who are at risk like babies and elderly.
- Try to lighten up your physical activities to avoid exhaustion.
It is important to try to slow down especially when one feels exhausted.
There, I hope I was able to enumerate a few helpful tips on how to protect one’s self from heat this summer.
