Red Cross Tip (Health & Wellness)

Did you know that summer heat kills more than 1,000 people each year? The best way to protect yourself from excessive heat is to dress appropriately, stay indoors, refrain from strenuous work or exercise during the hottest part of the day, and drink plenty of water. Heat cramps are muscle pains and spasms caused by heavy exertion in high heat, heat exhaustion involves the loss of body fluids through heavy sweating, and heatstroke is a life-threatening condition when the body’s inner controls malfunction and the body is unable to sweat.
