    How to avoid heatstroke as heatwaves cause temperatures to skyrocket across India

    Heatstroke is a condition induced by the body overheating as a result of prolonged exposure to high temperatures produced by intense heat.

    Digital
    Desk:
    Over the last two weeks, India has experienced
    record high temperatures. While schools in West Bengal have been suspended for
    a week, the India Meteorological Department (IMD) has stated that the heat wave
    conditions over East India would continue for at least the next four days.



    On Sunday (April 16),
    around 13 people perished from heatstroke in Maharashtra after attending a
    state award ceremony. As a heatwave warning has been issued in several states
    across the country, experts advise people to stay hydrated amid the heat.

    result of prolonged exposure to high temperatures produced by intense heat. It
    could also be due to physical effort in hot conditions.



    If your body temperature
    reaches above 40 degrees Celsius, it will require medical intervention. The
    most deadly heat-related sickness is heatstroke. The body's temperature rises
    so quickly that the sweating mechanism (the natural cooling system) fails, and
    the body is unable to cool itself down.



    According
    to the Centres for Disease Control and Prevention, if a person does not receive
    immediate treatment, his or her body temperature can skyrocket for 10 to 15
    minutes, resulting in irreversible disability or death.

    mso-fareast-font-family:"Times New Roman";color:black">To avoid your body
    reaching such a situation, there are a few things you can do to avoid
    heatstroke.



    mso-fareast-font-family:"Times New Roman";color:black">· Stay hydrated by
    drinking plenty of water. Summer liquids such as coconut water, mint water,
    lemon water, fresh fruit juices, and buttermilk have been recommended by
    experts.



    mso-fareast-font-family:"Times New Roman";color:black">• Protect your skin from
    sunburn by liberally applying broad-spectrum sunscreen every 2-3 hours.



    mso-fareast-font-family:"Times New Roman";color:black">• Dress in light, loose
    cotton clothing to stay cool and protect your head from direct sunshine.



    mso-fareast-font-family:"Times New Roman";color:black">• When out in the sun,
    use an umbrella and avoid direct sunlight wherever possible.



    mso-fareast-font-family:"Times New Roman";color:black">• Include fresh fruits
    and vegetable juices in your meals, and eat a plant-based diet.



    mso-fareast-font-family:"Times New Roman";color:black">• Keep your house's
    windows and drapes closed during the day, especially on the sunny side. Open
    them at night to let in cooler air.



    mso-fareast-font-family:"Times New Roman";color:black">Dr Komal Malik, Head
    Dietician, Asian Hospital, Faridabad, previously told indiatoday.in that a
    regular non-vegetarian diet increases dehydration during a heatwave because the
    food takes time to digest.

    mso-fareast-font-family:"Times New Roman";color:black">"A longer digestion
    process raises body temperature, causing dehydration." Instead of tea and
    coffee, drink lemon water, coconut water, buttermilk, or fluids high in
    electrolytes to assist relieve stomach pain or boost body heat. Spicy meals
    should also be avoided, according to Dr. Malik.
