Residents of the capital of the Urals are waiting for a couple more hot days, and already on Sunday the city will come "cold snap" and rain. Cardiologist Denis Nikolin told Yekaterinburg what it is necessary to do so that even in the +30 feel comfortable and do not strain your heart.

First, it is necessary to wear light clothing of loose cut from natural fabrics. It promotes the circulation of air around the body, and hence the maintenance of normal temperature.

Secondly, along the street try to move only along the shady side, and when you come into the room, turn on the air conditioner. Remember that the temperature is recommended to be set only six to eight degrees lower than the one that is outside the window, but not below +23 degrees.

"With a sharp change in the temperature of the environment, the human body does not have time to adapt to changes. Spasm of blood vessels reduces the possibilities for blood flow, and when it also "thickens" due to loss of fluid, the heart has to work under too severe conditions. If there is no air conditioner, then try to ensure the natural movement of air in the room, "- notes Denis Nikolin.

Thirdly, it is necessary to drink a lot of cool, but not ice water. It is important to exclude carbonated and sweet drinks, as they do not lead to thirst quenching, but only provoke excess fluid intake.

Fourth, owners of bad habits reduce them to a minimum, if it does not turn out to be excluded. Smokers have more dense blood, which means a higher risk of developing cardiovascular diseases.

Alcohol leads to dehydration of body cells and also causes a "thickening" of blood.

And the last tip. Protect yourself from physical exertion, and if there are signs of overheating - dizziness, nausea, thirst - it's urgent to go into the shade, drink water, unfasten clothes, wipe the skin with a damp towel.

Previously, the Ministry of Emergency Situations told how to survive the heat and from the use of which products should be abandoned at this time.
