This Is How I Combat Heat Stroke

The scorching 37 to 41C temperature is too much to bear even for those living in the tropical country like us. There many reported incidents about heat stroke especially to middle aged and elderly people who are more prone to this.

The overheating summer could be due to global warming. The earth atmosphere is hotter than 50 years ago when earth has so many plants, grasses trees. The global microwave is rising the heat index and causing many illnesses, diseases that lead to death of some people.

But we can evade this instantaneous death if we know what shouldn’t do and what should do. Being in the hotter part of the world we can say we have already adapted to this kind of climate. Maybe yes, when you are younger, but as your age increases also the risk of heat stroke.

We have our own way against heat stroke and my ways are the following:

• Drinking lots of water than the usual 8 glasses. I can drink more than ten which start when I woke up in the morning and the last is before I laid down my back in bed at night.
• Eating more fruits which have more water content like watermelon, apples, singkamas or white turnip and pineapple. I also drink more coconut water than usual.
• Wearing the loose fit and colorful clothes. Sleeveless are more comfortable dress this summer simply because air flows inside our body and the colored dresses reflects the sun rays. Aside from that, using umbrella and hats are highly recommended this summer.
• The exercise I do is every early in the morning and late in the afternoon. The good thing is that you can take a bath after this. If you can avoid biking from 9AM to 4PM, avoid it—or any physical activity outside.
• Avoid stay outdoor.

It’s better to practice precaution than being a victim of our own negligence.

Anyway, by middle of this May, rain will begin to cool down the overheat days.##
