Beating The Heat This Summer South Florida is a great place to have fun, but the weather restricts many from enjoying it By Larry Blustein sfsuntimes@aol.com It happens every year at this time. The temperatures rise to unheard of numbers and we react. Reacting may not be enough – and we experienced that firsthand last week – when record midweek numbers sent the heat index well into the 100’s – as June came to an end. While this is the time of year when the tropics (hurricane season) are heavily on our minds, staying cool and not wilting in the heat and humidity is truly important. With so many seniors living in our communities, this weather can be deadly, and nobody knows that better
than Marilyn Ortiz. This Hollywoodbased nutritionist works with many men and women over 65 – and understands how the body takes a toll with the intense heat and humidity. “Many of our seniors who live down here try to be so independent, they are not doing what is needed to survive in this weather,” Ortiz points out. “They need to understand that the heat and humidity will take its toll on your body – in a hurry.” Ortiz also happens to be a mother of three – ranging in ages from 10 to 15 – so she also needs to keep an eye on her active kids.
