The weather has been beautiful, and it's a great time to go outside and enjoy the sun, the wind, festivals, and all the outdoors has to offer. HealthInAging.org offers some tips to help seniors have a safe summer! ☀️ Stay away from direct sun exposure. Plan outdoor activities early in the morning or when the sun starts to set. Stay hydrated. Drink plenty of cool water. Alcohol and caffeine cause you to lose water in your body by making you urinate more. 👚Dress appropriately. Whenever you can, try wearing loose, light-colored clothes. Avoid dark-colored clothes as they may absorb heat. Top it off with a lightweight, broad-brimmed hat. These simple changes will help you both stay cool and avoid sunburn. 🕶️ Did someone say "sunburn"? Use a broad spectrum sunscreen lotion or spray with sun protection factor (SPF) of 15 or higher. Apply the sunscreen liberally to all exposed skin. 🐞Bugs are abundant in summer, so spray insect repellent when going outdoors.
