Cities experience dangerous heatwaves due to the urban heat island effect, where human activities and infrastructure trap heat, making temperatures reach 45°C or higher. To prevent heat-related illnesses, avoid outdoor activities between noon and 4 PM when UV rays are strongest, limit intense workouts to prevent cramps and cardiac strain, consume light meals instead of heavy spicy foods to reduce internal body heat, and drink electrolyte-rich fluids rather than plain water to maintain proper hydration and mineral balance. Elderly individuals and diabetics face significantly higher risks of heat stroke, dehydration, and cardiac complications during extreme heat events.

Do you feel that it is getting hotter by the day and cities are becoming hot air boxes? What you feel is known as the urban heat island effect. And make no mistake, cities recording 45° plus is actually man's own doing.
Here's more. So, let's tell you a little about the four common mistakes that all of us seem to be making in summer months. Well, peak heat exposure, that's something that we shouldn't be doing.
Actually, avoid going out from noon to about 4:00 p.m. There are high UV rays that increase the risk of a heat stroke.
It can cause dizziness and dehydration.
Intense workouts. Well, everybody loves a good workout, but remember the body heats up very quickly. It raises the risk of cramps and fainting. Extra strain on the heart as well during peak summer months. Heavy and spicy food.
Well, it increases internal body heat, can worsen dehydration, may cause acidity and fatigue, and low electrolytes. Remember, sweating removes essential minerals. Water alone is just not good enough. It can trigger cramps and headaches. So, good intake of electrolytes, the natural kinds, is the best. Now, there's every reason why you should know and believe that heat waves are dangerous and fatal. Heat stroke can turn fatal many times, and the body cooling system may completely fail.
Sweating can suddenly stop. Brain function gets affected quickly. There's a risk of a heart attack and stroke risk because heat puts extra strain on the heart. The blood pressure may fluctuate rapidly as well. Cardiac emergencies rise in extreme heat. There's a risk of severe dehydration. Excess sweating drains the body fluids. Electrolyte loss causes cramps and weakness. Severe dehydration may trigger confusion as well.
Diabetics and elderly are at higher risk. Heat affects blood sugar.
