In hot weather, energy levels always drop because the body has to work harder, “overtime,” to maintain homeostasis. As a result, most people experience fatigue, but simple recommendations can help overcome this condition.

First of all, don’t forget to drink enough fluids. In the heat, there is a risk of dehydration, since the body cannot cool you down. To maintain hydration, it is worth increasing water consumption, especially if you plan to go outside, writes “NBN” with reference to CNET.
Moderate exposure to the sun will also help fight the feeling of fatigue. To protect yourself from overheating, it is better to stay in the shade or indoors. Do not forget to use sunscreen, because skin damage can also contribute to fatigue – the body will spend energy on its renewal.
Make sure that your diet contains B vitamins, which promote cellular metabolism, playing an important role in energy recovery. They are found in eggs, avocados, Brussels sprouts, leafy greens, and whole grains.
Small, nutritious snacks of fruits, vegetables, nuts, and dried fruit mixes will help boost your energy levels in the heat and replace salt and electrolytes.
Check your health throughout the day. Listen to your body, if you feel nauseous or dizzy, drink some water, go to a cool room, or put an ice cube on your wrist to help cool down.
