- Protect yourself from direct sun (with shade, appropriate clothing, head covering, sunglasses, sunscreen etc.
- Wear loose, light-coloured clothing.
- Ensure that your body gets sufficient liquid (at least 1.5 to 2 litres a day), and compensate for salt and water loss simultaneously. Water containing sodium, juices, soups, fruits with a high water content, such as melons, cucumbers, tomatoes, strawberries and peaches, are all useful for hydration.
- Eat fresh, cool and light meals, and spread these out over the course of the day.
- Compensate for salt loss during or after sporting activities.
