Sun-Safe and On the Move: Tips for Active Lifestyles

Summer has arrived, and it’s the perfect time to head outdoors!

Getting active in the fresh air is a fantastic way to boost both your body and mind—but don’t forget to stay safe while you enjoy the sunshine! Being too hot for too long can cause heat-related issues.

Here are some sun illnesses to watch for while staying active outdoors and some ways to prevent them:

  • Heat cramps are when the muscles get tight and painful from hard work or activity.
  • Heat exhaustion is when the body cannot keep itself cool any longer.
  • Heat stroke is the most dangerous of heat illnesses, and a person becomes disoriented.

Knowing ways to prevent sun illness and having fun outside make the time more enjoyable.

Make sure you:

  • Drink plenty of liquids and stay hydrated—beverages such as water and items with electrolytes, like low-sugar sports drinks.
  • Watch the weather reports. Watch for high temperatures, high humidity, and air pollution levels that can make breathing more difficult.
  • Dress for the weather. Wear breathable materials like cotton. Dress in light colors.
  • Try not to overexercise or perform intense activities that overheat the body. Consider a lower intensity activity, such as walking.
  • If you start to feel dizzy or lightheaded, get to a cool place, such as a tree with shade or a nearby building.

Low Bone Density

Low bone density (sometimes called osteopenia) refers to bone density that is lower than the normal peak density but not low enough to be classified as osteoporosis. Bone density is a measurement of how dense and strong the bones are. Having low bone density means there is a greater risk that, as time passes, you may develop bone density that is very low compared to normal. This condition is called osteoporosis.
