Drink plenty of water and hydrating fluids like coconut water, lemon water, and fresh fruit juices to prevent dehydration.
Apply Sunscreen
Before going out in the sun, apply sunscreen with at least SPF 30 to protect your skin from harmful UV rays.
Wear Comfortable Clothing
Choose light-colored, loose-fitting, breathable clothes to stay cool. Avoid dark-colored clothes as they absorb heat.
Stay Indoors During Peak Hours
Avoid being outdoors between 11 a.m. and 4 p.m., when the sun is strongest. If you need to be outside, protect yourself with a hat or umbrella.
Take Cool Showers
A cool shower can help lower your body temperature and provide relief from the heat. It also helps remove sweat, preventing skin irritations and infections.
Eat a Healthy Diet
Include fruits and vegetables with high water content such as watermelon, strawberries, peaches, cucumbers, and lettuce in your diet.
Use Insect Repellent
Protect yourself from mosquitoes and other insects by using insect repellent, especially during the summer when they are most active.
Exercise Cautiously
Avoid exercising outdoors during peak heat hours. If you do exercise outside, choose shaded areas, stay hydrated, and wear breathable clothing.
