You think that we will not suffer from heat disorder, dehydration when staying at home because we do not move outdoors, under the hot sun. But, the fact is that even if you stay indoors, you run the risk of heat disorder or dehydration. And if not rehydrated in time, the body may experience dangerous complications.

1. Factors that can lead to heat disorder and dehydration when indoors

- Environmental factors: humidity, Lack of a breeze, not using fans or air conditioners.

- Individual factors: The person's physical health and level of fatigue, lack of sleep, the degree to which the person is acclimated to the heat, clothing, etc.

2. Preventing heat disorder and dehydration when staying indoors

- Use air-conditioners or fans judiciously

- Monitor the temperature in your room

- Improve the ventilation in your room

- Be sure to rehydrate appropriately

- Wear cool clothing

3. Other preventions

3.1 Care is needed in areas of the building where heat and humidity accumulate

Rooms with washers and/or dryers can get hot for a while, and these areas are also humid. Take care not to stay in such areas for long periods of time. The second floor (or top floor) of the house can accumulate heat and humidity during the day, so you should open the windows or turn on the air conditioner while here.

3.2 Beware of dehydration after bathing

About 800 ml of water is lost in a hot bath (temperature 41℃ for 15 minutes, then rest for 30 minutes). The body may go into heat stroke afterwards. Therefore, you must pay attention to rehydration before and after bathing.

3.3 You may become dehydrated without realizing it

Normally, a person loses water through breathing and skin. This is called insensible perspiration* and it happens without us even realizing it. Therefore, it is necessary to rehydrate even if you are not yet sweating.

*In the case of a person weighing 60kg, staying in a room with a temperature of 28℃, it will take about 900ml per day. This increases by about 15% for a 1 degree increase in body temperature.

3.4 Rehydrate regularly even when indoors

We are less likely to feel thirsty when we are at home. Even if you don't feel thirsty, try to stay hydrated. Especially elderly people worry about going to the toilet too often and sometimes they don't drink enough water, which easily causes dehydration.

3.5 Lack of sleep and sweating while sleeping also have an impact

Sweating while sleeping can cause a person to lose as much water as a glass of water. If a person cannot sleep because of the heat, it will make them even weaker.

3.6 Tea and beer do not hydrate the body

Tea and alcohol have diuretic effects, dehydrating so they are not suitable for rehydration. In addition, because sweat contains many electrolytes, such as sodium (salt), rehydration alone is not enough to prevent hypothermia. A person should rehydrate with 0.1% to 0.2% table salt solution, sports drink, or oral rehydration solution.

3.7 Rehydration with an ion supply drink

When the body loses water, also known as loss of body fluids, including water and essential ions, it is not enough to rehydrate with water alone. Rehydrate with Pocari Sweat ion supply drink which has the composition and concentration to body fluids, helping the body to absorb 2.2 times faster, and quickly restore alertness.
