HEALTH SUMMER FUN!
As the days grow long and the weather gets hot, you’re likely spending more time outdoors. Whether you’re taking a brisk walk around the neighborhood or golfing with friends, keep these tips in mind to stay healthy:
1. Replenish fluids
It’s easy to become dehydrated when you’re active. Replenish your fluids by drinking plenty of water, and healthy beverages, and by consuming water-rich foods like fresh fruits and vegetables. Because sweat contains electrolytes, you’ll also want to add foods that contain sodium, potassium, magnesium and calcium to your diet.
2. Protect skin
Sun exposure can contribute to the production of free radicals. More free radicals in the body means more damage can accumulate over time, and this DNA damage can cause gene mutations that can lead to skin cancer. This is why a multi-layered approach to skin protection is vital. Make sure you wear sunscreen daily.
3. Protect your feet
Wearing properly-fitting, sports-specific footwear can help you avoid overuse injuries such as plantar fasciitis and tendonitis. Over time and mileage, athletic shoes lose their ability to absorb shock and will need to be replaced to help keep the muscles and joints in your feet and ankles protected. Headed for a swim? Always wear pool shoes or flip flops in the locker room to prevent athlete’s foot and skin infections.
4. Protect your vision
UV light is harmful to eye health and can put you at greater risk for a number of conditions that impact vision. Wearing sunglasses with UV protection is a good idea. A hat with a brim or cap with a visor can offer eyes additional shade with the bonus of protecting your scalp and face too. At the pool, keep chlorine and other disinfecting chemicals out of your eyes by using goggles. Some pairs even offer UV protection.

When your cut-up fruit is about to expire and you don’t think you’ll be able to eat it in time, just freeze it for smoothies. Lay it out in a single layer and pop it in the freezer. When it’s frozen, you can put it in a zipper-top baggie for easy storage.
