Summer is finally here at last!
Well it's the best season for most of us outdoor
freaks. But if you don't take care in the hot sun then it will ruin your fun
and all your summer plans.
Here are 10 tips which will help you have the
best summer time ever:
1. Protect yourself from the UV Rays
Always apply sunscreen when
going outdoors for enjoyment in the sun. Sun feels good on your skin after the
winters but too much sun isn’t good for the skin. Sunscreen helps slow down the
skin’s aging process and protects you from skin cancer. You can also apply
Aloe Vera Gel if you get sun burned. Growing an Aloe Vera plant in
your back garden is very simple. The Gel cools and heals the skin naturally.
2. Stay Cool and Hydrated
You should drink plenty of water in summers in
order to keep your body hydrated and working properly. During exercise and
outdoor activities at least take 2 to 4 glasses (250 ml). You
can carry water with you in a Plastic Container which keeps it cold. We need
more liquid in hot weather so increase your water intake accordingly.
3. Be Active
Starting a new outdoor activity will really help
in those long lazy hot days. Choose more physically demanding activities over
things like floating in a pool in order to burn more calories. The longer days
of summer are an advantage as you get more time out. Activities like swimming,
hiking, cycling or just a walk in your neighborhood park will be great
fun.
4. Consume Foods that are Cool and Light
High-Calorie drinks like Sodas, heavy
smoothies, juices, alcohol and sugared ice teas will
add unwanted extra calories. Instead eat light,
small frequent meals. Heavy meals and drinks can cause a lot of heat in the
body because of the amount of fats and carbs in them.
5. Stay Clean and Dry
During the hot weather, skin rashes are
a common in both children and adults because of the excessive sweat generated
by the body in heat. Take more Baths, don’t wear sweaty clothes for
too long and always wear loose and cotton clothing.
6. Avoid Outside Food
Food Poisoning and diarrhea are very common in the summers
because food gets spoilt very quickly in the heat if it is not properly stored.
Go for healthier snacks instead of the street food.
7. Take your Supplements
Don’t forget to take your Vitamins for giving
you a boost for the physically demand summer activities. Try to add Vitamin
D (can become low because sunscreen blocks the UV rays which gives us
natural vitamin D), B-Complex Vitamins (great for our brain
and the nerves, also an energy booster), Vitamin C and E (very
good for the skin and help in boosting our immune system), Omega 3s (good
for heart, cognitive and joint function) in your diet in summer to stay healthy
and fit.
8. Don't Forget to Eat Watermelon
By far the best food for summer! Its low
in calories and it fills you up because its 92 percent water, which
helps you keep, hydrated. Watermelon is also very good for losing
weight.
9. Relax and Take Time out
Take a break from your work or your work will
break you!!!!! Relax and enjoy your summer time with your friends,
kids and family by planning a fun trip together whether it may
be camping, playing at the river or just a relaxing beach
vacation.
10. Get Plenty of Rest During Vacations
It might be fun to take advantage of the
sightseeing, playing on the beach, swimming in the lake and staying out late,
but don’t forget to give your body plenty of rest. Don’t over
burden your body. Plan your activities accordingly, take your full
night’s sleep and avoid over eating later in the day. Proper rest time
will help you enjoy your vacation.
