Also, there are athletes who compete in the heat.
The body is 75% fluid and when this goes out of balance through dehydration, it can cause severe illness and even death.
The United States came through their hottest time for decades in their last summer.
Now Australia is suffering a similar heat wave.
Since my own son and son-in-law work outside wearing protective clothing, I am well aware of their sufferings.
Below is the required clothing for skin protection from the fierce sun.
You will agree, it would be very hot.
WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU ARE DEHYDRATED??
Your mouth is dry, you feel dizzy and you have a headache...
A reduction of water in your system can reduce your blood volume AND LOWER YOUR BLOOD PRESSURE..
This can lead to cramps, dizziness or fainting.
Because of this, your extremities and vital organs receive less oxygen that is delivered via blood circulation.
Your blood becomes thicker and cannot circulate as it should.
When this happens, dehydration begins to set in.
So drinking enough water on hot days is vital!!
Besides that, there are now wonderful products which can be worn to assist against the body overheating.
These are an Australian product and can be ordered from all over the world via the internet...
VEST WORN UNDER THE PROTECTIVE CLOTHING!
The Product is called: COOL DOWN AUSTRALIA
It keeps you cool for a few hours, then you soak it and reapply.
Please check out the web page for total understanding.

In Australia we say, "When your on a good thing, stick to it."
I am not paid to advertise this! I want to get the message out there to save lives.
