Extreme Heat  - a Time to be Alert

It is up to us to avail the positive and avoid the negative. So now we need to know about the risks of the Sun along with the rewards, we need to know about the risks of extreme heat - heat exhaustion and its continuum leading to the more serious heat stroke.


Extreme heat generally include heat waves. A heat wave is a period of hot weather with abnormally high temperatures that continue for two days and more. In this context of heat wave and health issues, the old wise saying "Prevention is better than Cure" is apt even now. In any case, we have to equip ourselves with all relevant information to both prevent and address these life crisis issues, which have become a world phenomenon - across localities and countries in the current and near future.








Heat Exhaustion and Heat Stroke

These short excerpts from Healthline.org and Mayoclinic.org give us a glimpse of the harmful consequences and risks of abnormal heat conditions for our health and life. 


"Heat exhaustion occurs when your body loses excess amounts of water and salt, typically from sweating. On the other hand, heat stroke is a serious medical emergency that occurs when your body is unable to control its internal temperature. " - Healthline.com

"If heat exhaustion isn't treated, it can lead to heatstroke. Heatstroke is a life-threatening condition. It happens when your core body temperature reaches 104 F (40 C) or higher." - Mayoclinic.org
