\nStaying safe in high temperatures<\/p>\n
Safety tips from the Environmental Health and Safety office at UC Irvine<\/a>:<\/p>\n Drink water: Drinking plenty of water frequently is vital for those exposed to heat. An individual may produce as much as 2 to 3 gallons of sweat per day. To replenish that fluid you should drink 3 to 4 cups of water every hour. For information about cooling centers operated by Los Angeles, Orange, Riverside and San Bernardino counties, see https:\/\/ready.lacounty.gov\/heat\/<\/a>, https:\/\/ocgov.com\/cooling-centers<\/a>, https:\/\/capriverside.org\/cool-centers<\/a> and DPH<\/a>.<\/p>\n
\nTake breaks: Taking breaks in a cool shaded area and allowing time for recovery from the heat during the day are effective ways to avoid heat-related illness.
\nAvoid some beverages: Avoid or limit the use of alcohol and caffeine during periods of extreme heat. Both dehydrate the body.
\nStop and rest: If you start to feel symptoms such as nausea, dizziness, weakness or unusual fatigue, rest in a cool shaded area. If symptoms persist or worsen seek immediate medical attention.
\nClothing: Whenever possible, wear clothing that provides protection from the sun but allows airflow to the body. Protect your head and shade your eyes when outdoors.
\nBe prepared: When in the heat be sure to pay extra attention to those you\u2019re with and be sure you know how to call for medical attention.<\/p>\n
