Drinking Water After Coming From Sun: In the summer season, when you return home from the scorching sun, the first thing that comes to your mind is to drink cold water. But do you know that drinking water immediately after coming from the scorching sun can sometimes be harmful for the body? It may sound strange, but it is completely true. Let's know why and when should we drink water?

Why should we not drink water immediately after coming from the sun?

When you are in the sun, the body temperature suddenly increases. In such a situation, as soon as you drink cold or too much water immediately, the temperature balance in the body can be disturbed. This can cause problems like shock in the body, falling blood pressure or sudden sweating. Apart from this, some people may also experience gastric problems, sore throat or digestive system disturbances.

After how long should one drink water?

According to experts, it is better to drink water at least 5-10 minutes after coming from the scorching sun. During this time, sit in the shade for some time. Let the body come to normal temperature. Wash the face and hands and feet with plain water. Wipe the face with a wet cloth or keep it on the head. When you feel that the body temperature has become a little normal, then drink water slowly. Do not drink too much water at once.

 

When can it be dangerous?

If you drink cold water straight from the fridge after sweating a lot and facing a lot of heat, then it can affect the heart rate. Apart from this, drinking water too fast in case of dehydration can cause vomiting or nausea. In some cases, it can further increase the risk of heat stroke, if water is drunk without balancing the internal temperature of the body.
