When the weather gets hot, you should keep a close eye on your Blood Sugar Levels (BSL), look for signs that your body isn’t handling the heat well, and take the necessary steps before the situation gets out of hand.
Everyone feels the heat and humidity of the summer, but diabetes makes it harder for the body to deal with the heat and humidity. High temperatures and high humidity are more threatening to diabetics. Blistering summers raise the gamble of intensity fatigue and make it harder for diabetics to keep up with typical glucose levels.
Heat and humidity in the summer can be bad for anyone, but they’re especially bad for diabetics. However, with a few precautions, one can manage the summer months and minimize risks. The accompanying insurances can assist diabetics with staying away from significant medical issues brought about by heat.
- Stay hydrated
- Stay out of the sun
- Keep track of your BSL
- Dress to remain cool
- Protect your medical supplies
