Beware of extreme heat! "Prepare for the heat"
The heat wave continues every year.
The number of deaths due to heat stroke is on the rise every year, so be sure to take measures against the heat on a daily basis.
There are three points for heat countermeasures. Be prepared!
① Hydration
② physical condition management
③Temperature control
★Things to prepare★
☑Sports drink
☑Salt tablet
Salt can be easily replenished. To accompany you when rehydrating with water or tea.
However, too much of it can lead to excess sodium.
Most salt tablets available at drugstores contain about 0.1g of salt per tablet, so take 1 tablet per 100ml of water. (In the case of replenishment after sweating)
② Physical condition management
★ Points ★
Replenish your energy!
If you lack energy and your physical strength is declining, you will easily lose to the summer heat. Try not to skip meals as much as possible during this period when your appetite tends to decrease.
★Things to prepare★
☑ Jelly drink
You can easily replenish energy when you have no appetite. I don't recommend taking this much, but let's use it for a little energy supply.
There are also products that can be supplemented with salt.
Product example) Morinaga in Jelly Energy Lemon

③Temperature adjustment
★ Points ★
Let's know a good place to cool down when it's hot!
The cooling effect varies depending on the cooling location.
It is said that cooling your neck, groin, and armpits in particular will lower your body temperature.
Increased body temperature increases the risk of heatstroke.
★Things to prepare★
☑ Parasol/hat
☑ Cooling Goods
It is important to be prepared for the heat in order to manage your physical condition, but even if you are prepared, you may get sick and get heat stroke.
