How to Keep Cool During a Heatwave

Thank you for explaining that you need to put the ice cubes in the freezer, I’ve been putting them in the oven all my life

Those sheets will literally only stay cool for maybe five minutes after being taken out of the fridge though.

From personal experience, I wouldn’t recommend taking a hot shower during a heat wave because it will only make you dehydrated and dizzy.

as someone who lives in a tropical country that's pretty much summer all year long, please drink cold beverages and take cold showers. be nice to yourself lmao

NEVER use anything hot on someone at risk of heat exhaustion or heat stroke! They're usually unable to sweat, so this will make them worse, not better. Also, using heat on anyone is not a good idea. Anything that uses sweat to cool a person down gives them a risk of dehydration. Using heat is all round bad advice. Your body should not be encouraged to sweat more than it would by itself. For context, I'm an advanced first aider & a health scientist.

This looks like something 5-Minute Crafts would do

The hot shower and hot drinks don't really help in areas with high humidity Because sweat basically doesn't evaporate in high humidity

Thank you for explaining to take it out of the bag and use it after. Never would of figured that out.

“Pour water into the ice cube tray” “That’s a great trick”

OMG thank you Inside Edition for these life hacks. I'm gonna use NONE of it!

It seems like she’s been threatened to show these heat hacks

Damn, please don't follow these "health gurus". I'm a trained medical professional and I can tell you absolutely 100% that hyperthermia is NEVER treated with additional heat. But didn't need me to tell you that, your human instinct always tells you to take a cool shower when you're hot.

I used the witch hazel method once after giving birth. It was phenomenal

Idc what I’m not taking a hot showering during a heat wave!

"Put it in the freezer" Shows her putting it in the fridge

I live and work in Death Valley, CA. It's 120 degrees as I type this. Let me give you some advice. Move slow when outside. Don't stay outside for very long. Avoid alcohol drinks because alcohol dehydrates you. Drink lots of water and drinks with electrolytes. And here's the biggest one. Have AC! On a side note.... your body does acclimate to your environment. I visited my dad in Phoenix where it was 108, and 108 felt comfortable to me because my body was used to 120+ degrees. When I went to Michigan where it was 85, I felt a little chilly.

"Pop some ice cubes for a refresher" "Drinking warm beverages cools you down faster" nice

How do professional people in production make this , watch it , review it and publish it

Oh, I thought that by hydrating yourself regularly and staying inside while it's sweltering would help you during a heatwave. Apparently, I was wrong all along.

I get dizzy and have fainted from taking a hot shower. Do not recommend.
