🔥 Stay Safe in the Heat: Hydration Matters! 💧
When temperatures rise, your body works harder to keep cool — and that means you lose fluids faster through sweat. Even mild dehydration can cause fatigue, dizziness, and headaches, while severe dehydration can become a medical emergency.
✅ Tips to stay hydrated in hot weather:
Drink water regularly, even if you don’t feel thirsty.
Carry a refillable water bottle and sip throughout the day.
Limit caffeine and alcohol — they can worsen dehydration.
Eat water-rich foods like fruits and vegetables.
If you’re working or exercising outside, take frequent breaks in the shade and replenish electrolytes.
🚨 Warning signs of dehydration & heat stress:
Dark urine or infrequent urination
Dry mouth or excessive thirst
Dizziness, weakness, or nausea
Confusion or rapid heartbeat
🌡️ Remember: By the time you feel very thirsty, your body is already dehydrated. Prevention is the best protection.
