Stay Healthy This Summer

Summer Health Tips

To stay healthy during the summer, focus on hydration, sun protection, and appropriate physical activity. Drink plenty of water, wear sunscreen and protective clothing, and be mindful of the heat

Hydration:

●Drink plenty of water: Carry a reusable water bottle and refill it throughout the day.
●Eat hydrating foods: Watermelon, cucumbers, and berries can help supplement your water intake.
●Limit sugary and caffeinated beverages: These can be dehydrating.

Sun Protection:

●Wear sunscreen: Apply liberally (at least SPF 30) and reapply every two hours, especially after swimming.
●Seek shade: Especially between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. when the sun's rays are strongest.
●Wear protective clothing: Hats, sunglasses, and lightweight, light-colored clothing can help shield your skin from the sun.

Physical Activity:

●Adjust your exercise routine: Consider exercising in the cooler parts of the day (early morning or late evening).
●Stay active: Aim for at least 150 minutes of moderate-intensity or 75 minutes of vigorous-intensity aerobic activity each week.
●Warm up and cool down: This will help prevent injuries
