Coconut Water

We have added Coconut water to our site as it is an excellent hydrator, especially in hot or humid areas. When your body loses fluid through natural the natural sweating process,it needs to be replenished quickly and regularly. The body's organs need fluid to function together properly. If your body is dehydrated for a long length of time, it can cause organ failure. Drink 8oz of water or similar fluid every 30 minutes when in the sun or heat. Make sure you have a shaded area to go to at all times. Summers are a fun time of year, but they can also be the time of heat related instances. So put on the SPF30, grab some water and a hat, go outside and enjoy the sunshine!

Sun Protection and Dehydration

When summer arrives, and it does arrive quickly these days, we tend to forget the impact it has on our bodies even when we are only out a short time. Keeping a higher SPF on our bodies and drinking lots of water (not alcohol)will help to insure a safer summer. Having a shady area to cool off and get out of the sun can keep the temperature up to 10 degrees cooler. When going to a sporting event, take a wide brim hat and an umbrella. It doesn't take long to feel the impact of our hot summers. For all your natural sunscreen needs, go to HealthyPrism.com
