 | | 1 / 9 We're seeing more than our fair share of heat waves during the hotter months. And no thanks to global warming, the temperatures are continuing to soar, making heat exhaustion a very real health threat. Learn how to protect yourself from the harsh weather and check out these tips to beat the heat.
Drink plenty of fluids
Stay hydrated to prevent heat exhaustion. Plain ol' H2O is still the best for replenishing the fluids lost when your body perspires, but drinks like juices and milk can also contribute to the total amount of water intake you need each day. Avoid alcohol and caffeinated drinks, though, as they are diuretics.
