The record heat does not let go of the island. We never tire of reminding you of precautions and ways to reduce the risks of heat stroke. Let's list the three simplest ones.
First of all, it is necessary to prevent dehydration.
Drink more waterObvious recommendation? Yes, so obvious and predictable that many people neglect it! People literally forget to drink. This is especially true for teenage children who are absorbed in their thoughts and activities, but at the same time move a lot and lose a lot of fluid in hot weather. The problem is also relevant for the elderly.
Set a timer, place bottles of water, and generally replenish your fluid balance, even if you don’t feel thirsty right now.
Eat more vegetables and fruitsAnother way to prevent dehydration is to change your diet towards moisture-rich foods. These are vegetables and fruits, first of all.
Do not forget to wash vegetables and fruits before eating to avoid infectious gastroenteritis or simple poisoning.
Don't walk in the sunTry not to go outside during the hottest hours, in the active sun. Choose morning and evening hours to do all your errands, shopping, walking the dog.
If you have to be outside in the heat of the moment, wear a hat and don’t forget to use sunscreen. It is better to move around the park, in the shade of trees.
