Dr. Nada Macura brutally reminds us that summer isn’t just about soaking up the sun—it’s a deadly trap for everyone from heart patients to, believe it or not, relatively healthy folks! Heatwaves can cause collapse, fainting, and even heatstroke, and sweating isn’t just losing fluids—it’s a risk for heart rhythm disorders. Think you’re safe because you’re healthy? Think again—your body can easily get overwhelmed! While you’re roasting between 10 AM and 5 PM, Dr. Macura advises drinking at least three liters of water daily and avoiding extreme heat, especially for kids and the elderly. And don’t forget, driving in the heat is a recipe for disaster due to altered mental states! So if you think summer is just fun and games, think again—your health is on the line! Who else is ignoring these warnings and making dumb mistakes? Drop your crazy summer stories and comments below!
