With summer and good weather, we are keener to hang out and enjoy ourselves. However, we should consider these 6 tips to avoid any problems during this period and make the most of your vacation.

TIP 1: BE ALWAYS HYDRATED

In summer, the temperatures rise, and therefore, everyone, but mainly children and the elderly, should regularly drink liquids to avoid dehydration or heat strokes. Water is essential, but you can also drink natural juices, infusions, plant-based drinks, etc.

TIP 2: KEEP A WELL-BALANCED DIET

Include in your diet all the essential nutrients. Benefit from the advantages of seasonal fruits and vegetables, and do not miss fiber, as a change of habits may cause digestive disorders such as constipation.

TIP 3: REINFORCE YOUR INTESTINAL FLORA

In summer, the temperatures rise, and therefore, diarrhea is quite frequent. The key to avoiding it is having a strong and healthy gut flora through supplements rich in probiotics, which will also help you reinforce your immune system.

TIP 4: SUNBATHE WITH CAUTION

Avoid sunbathing at the hours of greatest intensity, protect your skin with sunscreen, wear a hat or cap, and watch your diet, as carrots (rich in beta-carotene) will protect your skin inside.

TIP 5: PROTECT YOUR EARS

Otitis is one of the typical summer disorders. To protect your ears, avoid swimming in untreated pools or pools with stagnant water, do not use cotton swabs or sharp objects to clean your ears, and if you are prone to otitis, use earplugs before diving into the water... And if, despite all these tips, you suffer from this disorder, propolis or other plants, such as mullein or plantain may help you relieve the symptoms.

TIP 6: AVOID FUNGI

Mycosis, along with its annoying itching and stinging, is also frequent in summer. To prevent it, use your own towel and footwear, watch excessive sweating, dry yourself thoroughly after bathing, and wear appropriate footwear in damp areas (footbaths, showers, changing rooms, saunas, etc.). But if you are still attacked by fungi, walnut and propolis have antifungal properties.
