To reduce the risk of heart attack in the heat, it is important to avoid active sun exposure, drink enough water, and avoid working in a slanted position in rural areas. “Radio 1” said geriatrician, cardiologist Yuri Konev.

It is dangerous to be in the open sun from 10 am to 6 pm. The doctor explained that at this time the Sun is most active. You can not overwork yourself at the dacha: you can work when the heat subsides. Elderly people should not work in a bent position, and it is also important to maintain a sleep schedule.

Heat increases the risk of dehydration. This improves blood clotting and increases the risk of heart attack and stroke. So it’s important to drink more water. Some older adults need to reduce their fluid intake because of certain heart and vascular conditions. But the cardiologist stressed that not many people do. If you have a fever, you may need to change your medication regimen. It’s important to discuss this with your doctor.

If you don’t have air conditioning at home, you can come to a special center with a rest room. As a last resort, you can stay cool in the supermarket.
