Beat the Summer Heat : Summer is increasing day by day and is most important in this season to keep yourself hydrated. Staying hydrated in this season is not just a habit but is very important for self-care.

In the summer season, we often feel lethargic, fatigue and laziness. But what is the reason for this. Let us understand this with an easy example. In summer, our body acts like an air conditioner, whose purpose is to keep us cool and comfortable. When the heat increases outside, our body sweats. This sweat comes on our skin and evaporates (fly as steam) in contact with air. In this process, heat comes out of our body, just as the cold air in AC absorbs heat. Just as AC needs electricity to run, the body needs water. Therefore, a lot of water should be drunk in summer. That is why if you drink less water then you feel tired or lethargic.
