Arizonans fear it, but we are aware that triple decimal weather is coming. We need to stay great and, most importantly, hydrated during these summer months.
What Happens at 100 Degrees in Body Physiology?
Residents of Arizona should be aware of what medically occurs at temperatures exceeding 110 degrees Fahrenheit. Excessive heat alters the gut microbiome, which can cause long-lasting problems with important organ systems, according to research from the University of California. Residents should be prepared and make the necessary lifestyle changes, but they don’t have to fear the heat.
What Signs Do You Have of Being Dehydrated?
Drinking water before you’re desperate is a big idea. Water is always the best way to replenish, and salt or electrolytes can help restore lost minerals in intense heat. Dehydration symptoms include muscle cramps, black urine, headaches, fatigue, dry mouth, and muscle cramps.
Major refreshing foods
Hydration is a key component of overall wellness to avoid both short- and long-term illnesses. Additionally, you can often turn to soothing foods when water becomes tiresome.
Cucumbers
Cucumbers, which are made up of 95 % water, are among the most soothing foods while being low in calories and high in fiber.
Tomatoes
As a fruit with a 95 % water content, tomatoes are a fruit that can be served in a variety of ways and are rich in nutrients like vitamin A, potassium, and vitamin C.
Celery
On a hot summer day, celery is a refreshing and crispy snack of choice because it is primarily composed of water ( about 95 % ). Additionally, celery contains electrolytes, which aids in the body’s retention of water.  ,
Melons
Melons ( watermelon, honeydew, and cantaloupe ) are a great choice for hydration with a 92 % water content that is ideal for both the summer and the winter. Additionally, they contain a lot of vitamin C, a nutrient that can help prevent and repair sun damage.  ,
Strawberries
Strawberries contain about 92 % water, but they are also a fantastic hydrating snack because they are low in calories but high in fiber and antioxidants. Another soothing foods are velvet tofu, apples, and lush greens like lettuce and spinach, which may not be on the list of things to do.
