We should choose a suitable sunscreen for ourselves. Do not use too much sunscreen or overuse it. Applying moderately will help the skin avoid sunburn and prevent clogged pores when applying too much. For maximum effectiveness, use sunscreen 20 minutes before going out.

3. Continuous operation between two environments with very different temperatures

According to Healthday doctors, on hot days, going from an air-conditioned room (or vice versa, going from hot outside into an air-conditioned room) requires some time for the body to adapt, and should not be rushed from the house to the outside immediately.

Because at that time, the body cannot adapt to the large difference between indoor and outdoor temperatures, leading to nosebleeds, headaches, fainting, heatstroke...

4. Choosing the wrong clothes

Avoid wearing thick or dark colored clothing as they do not allow for good ventilation. Instead, wear light clothing, especially cotton. This will keep your skin dry and prevent some water loss.

At the same time, when going out, you should wear a wide-brimmed hat to block the sun and keep your head cool. When the sun is at its peak, you should not stay outside for too long and need a hat, glasses, and thick sunscreen to block the sun.

5. Go out at peak sun time

The hottest time of the day is usually from 10am to 5pm, with the hottest time being around 1pm to 4pm. Therefore, we should limit going out during this time.

For more convenience, you should arrange outdoor work in the morning and evening, adjust your own pace of activity when working, exercising, and playing outdoors in the sun. Avoid working or walking in the sun for too long, which will exhaust your body and cause respiratory diseases.

6. Not adding water and electrolytes

Rehydrate your body by drinking as much water as possible, at least 2 liters of filtered water per day. Rehydrating before you are dehydrated, drinking water when you are not thirsty will clearly control the harmful effects of heat. In addition, drinking a glass of lemon juice with 1-2 pinches of salt, 1 teaspoon of sugar and a little baking soda before going out in the hot summer sun can help prevent heatstroke.
