Hello Everyone,

I am swollen this morning, the heat always does this to me. I know I need to up my water but what does everyone else do to avoid this in the summer?

    I hate the heat...it messes me up so hard. I drink a lot of water, take cool showers, and try to stay in as cool an environment as possible. If you don't have AC, open your windows and get a good fan to at least keep air circulating. I also tend to stick to salads, and light, cool foods. Also make sure that if you are sweating profusely, you replace the salt and minerals as well as the water.

    Sorry to hear this. It can be really uncomfortable. I cut out all things alcoholic or carbonated and no processed meats or anything with sulfites. I ease way up on salt and drink between half a gallon and a gallon of water. It takes a couple of days sometimes to get back to normal but it works for me. I hope it works for you too!

    My feet and hands sometimes get swollen when it's hot. It doesn't happen a lot where I live, but when it does its not pleasant. Hope you feel better. :wink:
