In recent years, the summer season has been particularly hot, and the number of cases of heat stroke is increasing. In order to avoid such consequences of the action of the sun, you just need to remember about the elementary methods of dealing with heat.
Instructions
Step 1
Drink plenty of fluids. The hotter it is outside, the more it is required for thermoregulation in the body. Drink a couple of liters of clean water a day, trying not to take more than an hour between glasses of water. Please note that sweet soda, juices and other drinks will not help you, but will only complicate the work of the body.
Step 2
Quench your thirst properly. If you are unbearably thirsty all day, the same water will help. Cool, with no added sugar, it will naturally quench your thirst. Another drink that can help with this is green tea. Drink it warm, so you can cope with the urge to drink, and with the fever (the body temperature will rise slightly, which will make the body feel more comfortable). It is better to refuse coffee, because it increases sweating.
Step 3
Choose clothes made from natural fabrics. Synthetic materials interfere with perspiration, which leads to a violation of thermoregulation. Give preference to linen, the fabric made of it is breathable and does not interfere with the body's "breathing". As for the colors, it is better to wear light-colored clothes. The dark one will attract the sun. Avoid tight things, prefer a loose fit.
Step 4
Wear a hat. Be sure to keep your head in the shade, this will save you from sunstroke. Hats, baseball caps, scarves - the choice is yours. Such an accessory in the summer will help not to become a victim of solar activity and at the same time look stylish.
Step 5
Try to stay in a cool room during the peak of solar activity. From eleven to two or three o'clock, the heavenly body emits rays that are especially strong and harmful to humans. Avoid them by hiding in an air-conditioned building. The coolness on such days will not hurt you.
Step 6
Avoid heavy food. Do not overload your body, do not eat fried, salty and spicy foods. Give preference to light summer soups such as okroshka or beetroot, boiled fish and meat, fresh vegetables and fruits.
Step 7
Take a cool shower several times a day. Or at least wet your face with cold water. Cooling the body in this way is both pleasant and beneficial.
