If you’re feeling overheated during the summer, here are some tips to help you stay cool and comfortable:
Stay Hydrated:
- Drink plenty of water. In addition to water, consume hydrating drinks like lemonade, coconut water, and other electrolyte-rich beverages.
Stay in Cool Places:
- Use air conditioning or a cooler. If these are not available, use fans and keep windows open to ensure proper ventilation.
Wear Light and Loose Clothing:
- Opt for cotton and light-colored clothes that help absorb sweat and keep you cool.
Take Cool Showers:
- Taking cool showers can lower your body temperature and refresh you.
Eat Light and Fresh Meals:
- Avoid heavy and fried foods. Eat fresh fruits, salads, and light meals.
Avoid Direct Sunlight:
- Try to stay indoors during peak sunlight hours (12 PM to 3 PM).
Keep Your Home Cool:
- Use curtains or blinds on windows to block out the sun and keep the house cooler.
Take Frequent Breaks:
- If you are working outside, take regular breaks in a cool place to rest and hydrate.
Use Water Sprays:
- Spraying cool water on your face and neck can help you cool down.
Herbal Drinks and Home Remedies:
- Drinks like bael sherbet, aam panna (raw mango drink), and mint water can provide relief from the heat.
