As the temperatures rise in Virginia, it is crucial to take care of yourself to avoid heat-related illnesses. UVA Trauma Expert Valerie Quick emphasizes the importance of staying hydrated when spending time outdoors. She points out that our bodies lose water through normal activities such as breathing, sweating, and urinating, so it is vital to drink water before, during, and after outdoor activities.
Quick also stresses the significance of eating while in the heat to replenish salt lost through sweat. It is essential to make sure you are getting enough salt in your diet to stay healthy. Proper hydration and nutrition are vital to staying safe and healthy in warm weather.
To avoid dehydration and heat-related illnesses, remember to drink plenty of water before, during, and after outdoor activities. Take breaks to rest and hydrate, and make sure to eat foods that replenish lost salt. Keep these tips in mind to enjoy the warm weather while also taking care of your health. Stay safe and hydrated as you venture outdoors in the summer months.
