Prevent Heat Stress wikiHow
Heat stress is a condition that can occur when one is exposed to extreme heat. There are several levels of heat stress, ranging from a largely harmless sunburn or heat rash to serious heat stroke. Though the worst cases can lead to severe dehydration, organ damage, disability, and even death, the condition can be prevented by taking some basic precautions and vigilantly checking for possible symptoms.
Taking Precautions when Working Solo
Choose a time of day when the sun is not at its peak. Whether you’re going out to do some gardening or gearing up for a jog, one of the easiest ways to prevent heat stroke is to avoid the combination of sun exposure and strenuous activity entirely between 11 am and 4 pm. Instead, pick a time in the early morning or late afternoon when the sun’s rays aren’t so fierce.
Wear breathable clothing.
Clothes made of synthetic fabrics can significantly increase your risk of heat stress: since they are not breathable, they make you sweat and lose moisture at a higher rate than usual. Opt instead for loose-fitting garments made of cotton or other breathable fabrics.
Light-colored clothing will keep you cooler in the heat, but dyed and darker fabrics are better at absorbing UV rays and preventing sun damage.
Slather on the sunscreen.
You don’t need to worry about this consideration if working indoors, but any outdoor labor should be accompanied by plenty of topical sun protection. This will prevent sun burns and rashes, skin conditions which—although painful enough in and of themselves—can also have serious consequences. Left untreated, they can interfere with your body’s natural cooling capabilities and eventually lead to more serious heat-related illness such as heat exhaustion.
Take frequent breaks to cool off.
You can work safely in extreme heat and humidity as long as you take regular breaks to retreat to a cool, shaded area. These breaks bring down your temperature while refreshing your body’s capacity to cool itself. If toiling strenuously, you should rest for at least an hour in this cool environment.
While some good shade coverage is sufficient if working in an arid climate, it is probably not sufficient if laboring in a humid environment. If your home doesn’t have air conditioning, seek out a public space such as a mall or movie theater where you can rest. In a pinch, you can try taking cool showers or baths throughout the day.
Drink lots of water.
When your body gets hot, it cools itself off by sweating. This coping strategy is effective, but it also causes you to lose moisture rapidly, so you must replenish fluids regularly in order to avoid dehydration. When you're working outdoors in extreme heat, you'll need at least 2.2 liters (0.6 US gal) of fluids each day. You can drink plain water, but it’s even better to consume sports drinks like Gatorade or Powerade, which provide the electrolytes, salts, and sugars you lost through sweating.

What is the Vegan Diet? wisegeek
A vegan diet is a diet that involves a decision to avoid eating animal products. Although the definition of the vegan style diet is fairly simple, this kind of dietary choice can be complex and difficult in practice. There are also a wide range of types of vegan diets and similar diets.
An individual can choose a vegan style diet for weight loss, or as a result of a personal philosophy. The vegan diet is more restrictive than a vegetarian diet, where participants avoid eating meat. In a vegan type of diet, participants avoid not only meat, but all other animal products including “lacto ovo” (milk and egg) products.
Consumer research shows that many people find the idea of cutting both meat and dairy products to be severely restrictive, and reject this kind of dietary plan based on issues of practicality. Those who actually practice a vegan diet are often very dedicated to restricting their diet in these ways. Food science does show some specific benefits of this type of diet.
A vegan style diet usually reduces the amount of cholesterol that builds up in the body. These diets are often relatively low in fat. In addition, vegans point to meat consumption as a primary factor in many types of degenerative conditions that relate to the buildup of either bacteria or toxins in the body.
A vegan type of diet plan can be helpful in decreasing a person’s weight and leading to healthier eating. It’s important to make sure that any diet contains the full range of nutritional elements that the body needs. Someone who has complications with a vegan diet can consult with their family physician and a trained nutritionist for the best chance at developing a workable personal diet plan.
Meat and cancer cancercouncil
There is now a clear body of evidence that bowel cancer is more common among those who eat the most red and processed meat. Processed meat consumption has also been strongly linked to a higher risk of stomach cancer.
The World Health Organization has classified processed meats – including ham, salami, sausages and hot dogs – as a Group 1 carcinogen which means that there is strong evidence that processed meats cause cancer. Red meat, such as beef, lamb and pork has been classified as a ‘probable’ cause of cancer. These classifications do not indicate the risk of getting cancer, rather how certain we are that these things are likely to cause cancer.
Cancer Council estimates that in 2010, one in six (or 2600) new bowel cancer cases in Australia were associated with consuming too much red meat and processed meat.
