#Monterrey, #N.L.- The Municipality of Monterrey, through the Directorate of Civil Protection, issued a series of recommendations to protect themselves from the high temperatures that are forecast for this week in the state.

The advice is for the community of all ages, mainly children under six years of age and older adults, as well as for pets, since the weather conditions are prone to cause dehydration or heat stroke, which if not prevented can be fatal.

RECOMMENDATIONS

The Director of the Corporation, Fernando Fernández, recommended not to be exposed to the outdoors during the hottest hours, which is from 11:00 to 16:00 hours; to stay in shady and cool places, and if they do not have to go out, to stay at home with the proper precautions.

If they are forced to go out, they are advised to use sunscreen, wear a hat, cap or umbrella; stay hydrated even if they are not thirsty, preferably with natural water, since sugary or alcoholic beverages make the blood more concentrated, which increases the degree of dehydration.

«We must remember that hydration is with pure water, serums or rehydrating drinks; it is recommended to drink at least two liters of water daily and it does not mean that water has to be taken in a single exposure, but it is throughout the day,» explained Fernandez.

He suggests consuming fresh food and eating fruits and vegetables, wearing natural fiber and light-colored clothing, in addition to the fact that it is necessary to ventilate the vehicles before boarding them, since, being exposed to the sun and closed, the temperature inside reaches up to 55 degrees Celsius.
