Heat Injury

Recently, I read a terrible news.
1718 people died from heat injury last year.

Can you believe this fact??

This is the worst record since 1964.


A lot of people are already transported to hospital this summer.
It's really terrible X(

I don't want to die from heat injury:(
And, please do not die from heat injury!!
Although we should save on electricity, please beat heat this summer!!

Japanese people often eat hiyashi cyuka, somen, hiyamugi and cold soba during summer time.
These are all cold noodles, so easy to eat in hot time.

Also, it is said that eating unagi (eel) is good in summer because it gives stamina to us in hot time.

Beside, eating summer vegetables is good for our body.
Summer vegetables like eggplant, balsam pear(goya), mini-tomato, cucumber have much potassium, and the potassium help us keep cool.
However, potassium is easy to break by heat, so eating raw summer vegetables is good way to take enough potassium.


To avoid heat injury, what's the most important is drinking water many times in a day.

Let's beat heat together!!!
