Staying Hydrated in Our Apartments for Rent in Wildwood
The air conditioning in our apartments for
rent in Wildwood can feel great when you want to escape the
summertime heat, but at other times, it’s nice to venture outside
and enjoy the Florida sunshine. Spending a day outside can be
fun, and a moderate amount of sun exposure is even healthy,
but excessive heat and sunshine can also cause dehydration.
Therefore, it is always important to stay hydrated while outdoors,
especially during the hottest months of the year.
We all know that drinking water helps us to
stay hydrated, but here are a few lesser known tidbits about
proper hydration:
- Eat to stay energized. Fruits are about
90 percent water, and eating them will not only provide your
body with the energy it needs to get through the day, but
will also supply some of the water it needs to stay hydrated.
- Avoid salty foods when you know you will
be in the sun for an extended period of time. Salt in foods
eventually ends up in your blood, causing your body to move
water out of surrounding tissues and into the blood to dilute
the salt. This dehydrates the tissues in your body.
- Provide yourself with some shade. Partially
blocking the sun can help you stay cool and keep water inside
your body.
- Don’t drink too much water. Overdrinking
water can be dangerous. Your body will tell you when you need
to drink water and when you’ve had enough.
When the sun gets too hot and our residents
need to step inside for a while, they can quickly return to
their apartments or into one of our air conditioned amenities,
like our clubhouse, indoor basketball court, or fitness center.
