Heat
Stress
The best ways to prevent a sun stress emergency are:
Drink before you're thirsty and drink often.
Eat a healthy diet.
Wear a hat or cap, keep the neck covered and wear loose fitting clothing.
If you can, work in the cool hours of the day or evening.
The greatest amount of heat loss from the body occurs at the head.
This is why it is important to wear a hat or cap in the sun.
Heat-related injuries fall into three major categories:
