預防中暑有方法 ?
一到夏天，大家都想玩各式各樣的戶外活動，想玩得盡情的話，事前準備工夫不可少，因為夏天天氣炎熱，一不小心容易中暑。細心計劃行程，準備足夠物資，都有助預防中暑發生。
1. 慎選活動時間
如要進行戶外活動，最好安排在早上或下午較後時間進行，避開中午陽光最猛烈的時間，減少曝曬的機會。
2. 防曬裝備不可少
穿著淺色通爽的衣物，使用闊邊帽、太陽眼鏡、雨傘等防曬配件，帶備小風扇、冰毛巾等有助散熱的用品，皮膚也要塗抹合適的防曬霜。
3. 準備足夠消暑飲料
帶備足夠的水或消暑飲料，如西瓜皮冬瓜皮綠豆水、椰青等，但要避免飲用茶、咖啡、酒精飲品等加速身體排水的飲品。不要等到口渴才飲水，宜每隔20分鐘，小口小口緩緩地喝，補充約100-200毫升水份。
4. 室內活動要空氣流通
別以為中暑只會在戶外環境出現，如果室內環境潮濕悶熱，也會導致中暑發生，所以室內宜開窗或冷氣令環境保持通爽涼快。亦不應留在停泊的汽車內，因為封閉的車子裡空氣流動有限，溫度會不斷上升。
5. 量力而為
如果感到身體不適，或者睡眠不足、身體虛弱情況下，都不宜進行劇烈的戶外活動，因為這些狀況都會影響身體機能，降低出汗率，增加中暑的可能。

Five tips to prevent heat strokes
All sorts of outdoor activities seem to be on our mind when summer arrives. In order for us to enjoy them to the fullest, we need to be well prepared to combat the heat. Careful planning and preparation in advance can help prevent heat strokes.
1. Choose the appropriate time for activities
Arrange your outdoor activities in the morning or late afternoon to avoid the extreme sun exposure during mid-day hours.
2. Amp up protection against the sun
Wear light colored clothes that allow better airflow; put on a broad brim hat and a pair of sunglasses, and carry an umbrella. Bring along items like a handheld fan and an iced towel to help dissipate heat. Apply an appropriate amount of sunscreen for skin protection.
3. Prepare sufficient beverages
Bring enough water or heat relieving drinks, but avoid drinking tea, coffee and alcoholic beverages as they are diuretic. Start drinking before you feel extremely thirsty, and do that in small sips every 20 minutes to rehydrate the body with about 100-200 ml of liquid.
4. Ensure good air ventilation for indoor activities
Heat strokes do not just happen in the outdoor, but also within an enclosed warm and humid environment. Hence, always make sure there is a good airflow indoor by opening the windows or turning on the air-conditioner. Avoid staying in a parked car, as the space within has limited air ventilation, which will cause the temperature to rise.
5. Stop the activities when necessary
If you feel unwell, or experience insomnia or fatigue, avoid taking part in strenuous outdoor activities, as the symptoms mentioned above will affect the mechanism of the body and reduce your ability to sweat properly, hence causing you to be more prone to develop heat stroke.
