भीषण गर्मी में बुजुर्गों का रखें खास ध्यान: हीटवेव से बचाव के जरूरी उपाय

Heat affects older adults more quickly and severely, as the body’s ability to regulate temperature declines with age. Therefore, taking special precautions is essential during hot weather:
🔹Avoid going out during peak heat hours (11 AM to 4 PM)
🔹Stay in a cool, well-ventilated place at home
🔹Use a fan, cooler, or air conditioner
🔹Wipe the body with a damp cloth or take cool showers
🔹Stay well hydrated
🔹Drink small amounts of water throughout the day, even if not thirsty
🔹Include fluids like coconut water, lemon water, and buttermilk
🔹Avoid caffeine and overly sugary drinks
🔹Wear light and loose clothing
🔹Choose cotton and light-colored fabrics
🔹Use a hat, umbrella, or sunglasses when stepping out
🔹Eat light and balanced meals
