Summer is already upon us! :x it's time for outdoor activities like riding bikes and hosting barbecues and much more. But can you staying healthy during the whole summer to enjoy the fun?

Summer is an excellent opportunity for everyone to get outside. But summer also holds risks such as allergies, eye injuries, immune system function... For a healthy and safe summer everyone needs to think about simple ways to start being more active, eating better and creating a healthy lifestyle that can last a lifetime.

Summer Health Tips :-D

What should you drink?
• Drink plenty of water; your body needs it to prevent dehydration during warm summer days. Take bottles of water with you, if you're going out for any length of time. :k9:

What should you wear?
• Wear appropriate shoes for your outdoor activities. If you're doing a lot of walking or other sports activities, skip those stylish summer sandals. Avoid blisters and sprains by choosing a good pair of walking shoes. Wear them with comfortable, cotton socks.
• Wear light, loose-* clothing to help you stay cooler.
• Don't forget sunglasses to protect your eyes from the sun's UV rays. :k3:

What should you eat?
• Maintain your energy level by limiting your intake of fat and sugar; focus on carbohydrates, fruits and vegetables

What should you do?
• If you have asthma or other respiratory problems, watch the air quality report for the day. Limit your time outdoors on days that have moderate to poor air quality outlooks. Plus, don't forget to take your inhaler or other medication when you go out.
• Take a rest. Don't push beyond your physical limits. At intervals, sit in a shady spot.
• Take cover. Sunburn is painful and unhealthy. Use a good sunscreen, and re-apply it frequently during the day. Also, wear a hat to keep cool and shaded.
• If you are traveling by air, put prescription drugs in your carry-on bag, not your checked luggage. Travelers and their baggage are sometimes parted, and it may be dangerous to skip even one dose.
• It is particularly important to bring medicines with you if you are traveling abroad. Drug names, doses, and availability differ in different countries, and in some parts of the world, drug safety and effectiveness may not be up to U.S. standards.Check the labels on your medicines for the possibility that they might increase your sensitivity to sun and/or heat.


Some people get exhausted just because of fun. If you remember these tips, you will certainly have a great summer ever! Enjoy!

some more tips here
-we can use sunscreen, which can help you to avoid sunburn, and get that "healthy tan," which, of course, isn't very healthy at all.
-apply Insect Repellent on Kids
Since bites are itchy, even without any worries about health problems, it is a good idea to try to protect the kids from insect bites by learning how to apply an insect repellent properly. :k9:
-swimming of course is a good advice too :X
