Beat the heat: Tips for keeping your family safe and healthy
this summer

(ARA) - The smell of the barbecue grill, the sounds of children
playing and the feel of warm sun on the skin are all signs of summer.
With increased outdoor activities, there also comes a list of
precautions you should take to keep your family safe and healthy.

"We know women are usually the caretakers of the family," says
Elizabeth Battaglino Cahill, a registered nurse and executive
director of HealthyWomen. "Summer brings lots of great opportunities
for family fun, but also requires some special planning to keep kids
and adults safe and healthy in the sun and heat."

Limit sun exposure
Because exposure to the sun causes most of the skin changes
associated with aging, protecting the skin from the sun is the single
most important skin care practice you can adopt and impart to your
children. Significant exposure to the sun will wrinkle and dry the
skin. Uneven pigmentation - from freckles to small or large brown
spots - is another side effect of frequent sunning.

The most serious consequence of sun exposure is skin cancer. Most
sun damage occurs before age 18, but skin cancer can take up to 20 or
more years to develop. Children who experience just a few serious
sunburns are believed to have an increased risk of developing skin
cancer later in life. Protect children by applying sunscreen at least
an hour before heading outside and frequently reapplying sunscreen
with an SPF of at least 15. Also have them play in the shade and wear
protective clothing. Babies younger than 6 months should never be in
direct sunlight and should always wear a hat and clothing that
protects them from the sun's ultraviolet (UV) rays.

Keep an eye on your vision health
Wear sunglasses and a wide-brimmed hat when you're in the sun. These
two simple steps can reduce your exposure to eye-damaging UV rays up
to 18-fold. And, if you wear contacts, ask your eye care specialist
about contact lenses with UV protection. Don't forget your children
and their eyes. If you are going to be in the sun, make sure your
children are wearing hats that provide coverage. Use your stroller
hood when out for a walk and pay attention to the sun's direction.
When out for a walk with your stroller, try to walk so that the sun
hits your back. You may also want to consider purchasing children's
sunglasses.

Practice water safety
Before you start splashing, remember safety first. Take the time to
enroll your kids in swim instruction classes, and teach your children
to take precautions before diving into the water. Make sure to read
the safety and warning labels on all children's toys, inner tubes and
water wings so that you understand their safety capabilities. And
remember to reapply sunscreen every few hours after being in the
water.

Avoid foods exposed to excess heat
During the summer months, many people enjoy going for a picnic.
Before packing your basket this summer, think about how long your
food will be exposed to the outdoors. Avoid packing meat, dairy and
egg products that may spoil if not kept cold. If you decide to bring
these types of food products, pack them separate from each other in a
cooler, and keep the ice in a sealed container to avoid a soggy
sandwich.

Stay hydrated
Increase fluid intake as appropriate based on the weather. High
temperatures or humidity outside, heated indoor air and high
altitudes all cause you to need more fluids.

When exercising, drink one cup of fluids every 15 minutes, advises
Dr. Werner W.K. Hoeger, a fellow of the American College of Sports
Medicine and director of the Human Performance Laboratory at Boise
State University.

Add more for big events. If you're going to be in a race or charity
walk, make sure you drink enough to be well hydrated the day before,
Hoeger adds. Also, drink a glass of fluid, such as water or a sports
drink, an hour before the event.

Watch out for overheating in vehicles
Even on a relatively mild day, the temperature inside your vehicle
can quickly escalate. These temperatures can put both children and
pets at risk for heat stroke, dehydration and even death. Never leave
your child or pet unattended inside your car, even to run a quick
errand.
