Summer and your health and wellness

Summer is a time when you need to pay special attention to the health and wellness

aspect of your body, since even a little bit of carelessness can lead to major problems. Following is a list of some of the areas you need to work on.

First, you need to ensure that you apply sunscreen whenever you go out into the sun. An important factor to be considered here is that it must not have ingredients that might cause cancer. These are PABA, benzophenone-3, homosalate, octyl-methoxycinnamate (OMC) and 4-methyl-benzylidene camphor (4- MBC). So even though it might seem tedious to check for the ingredients of a lotion, remember that it might turn out to be a life-saving practice.

If you are thinking of avoiding the sun altogether during summers due to the heat, do keep in mind that from the perspective of your health and wellness, you need to get a lot of vitamin D, and the sun is the best source for that! However, it's best that you do not apply sunscreen during the times you are going out just for this purpose. This is why an exposure of 15-30 minutes is more than sufficient.

Another point to keep in mind is that you need to consume a lot of fresh fruits and vegetables to keep your health and wellness meter up. There are plenty of options with all the farmer markets up and running. You can really stack up on proteins and vitamins and cut down on carbohydrates and fat by eating salads, lots of cereals and vegetables that are only available in their best form during these few months.

Drinking lots of water is a practice you must never forget, particularly if your body has a tendency to sweat a lot. The water content needs to be regularly replenished, otherwise it can lead to a drop in your efficiency, as well as many other physiological problems.
