Some simple methods to keep the body cool during summer

Posted on: 06/May/2016 6:08:43 PM
Even before the onset of  Agni Nakshatram or kathiri veyil, the summer has been quite scorching in many cities in the state of Tamil Nadu. Vellore, already known for hottest summers, is literally burning with the impact of summer.

In Chennai, the people go to the beach in the evenings in order to avoid the hot air blowing across.

By changing our eating habits to suit the summer, we can keep cool even during the scorching summer.

Drink more water - We can keep the body cool by taking plenty of water during hot days. The excess heat in the body is released through humidity and cools the body.

Avoid taking cool drinks -  This is because of the fact that a lot of colouring agents and sugar are added in the cool drinks for preservation and longer shelf life. By taking this, the acidity acts as a water generation agent and helps pass more water through urination, They also contain diluted phosphoric acid to help digestion. This tends to increase the phosphorous content in the blood.  More Calcium is taken to the blood. This displacement of calcium damages the powdery particles. The enzymes are also deprived of doing their function affecting the mineral content and leading to malfunctioning of the body.

Avoid taking chilled drinks - Most of us take the chilled water from the refrigerator immediately returning after an outing. Taking chilled water in a highly humid condition will cause shrinkage in the blood veins on the skin. And cause loss of heat.

Take the tender coconut and watermelon in plenty - With the hottest part of the summer set to start, it is better to avoid taking the extra filling of meals thrice a day. Avoid taking iced coffee. Instead, take the tender coconut of fruits with rich water content. Take watermelon, tomato, and lime juices.

In order to get the colour and shine of the skin back, which was lost due to exposure to the scorching sun, apply cucumber extract on the skin.
