You played a round of golf and then a set of tennis and you forgot your hat. Suddenly you have a headache and begin to feel dizzy. You’ve overdone it in the heat.
- Get out of the sun right away.
- Drink some water to replace all that you have lost in sweating.
- If suffer from heat exhaustion frequently, you need to eat more fruits and vegetables: they have natural water content.
- Drink one of the sports drinks to replace both potassium and sodium.
- Do not use salt tablets, because they really don’t replace essential mineral lost through sweating.
- Avoid alcohol, caffeine.
- Don’t smoke
- Wear a hat
- Wear light colors, because they reflect the sun’s rays better than dark ones.
- Wear loosely woven fabric which let your breath.
