Hi krishnamma,

Regrads,
Deepa

We should avoid going out between 12 noon to 2 p.m because this is time of maximum heating by sun. But If someone needs to be out during this time then to prevent getting heat stroke in peak summers, one should carry an onion (after removing the thin outer dry peel, do not cut it else it may stain the clothes) in the pocket or in hand. The rule is that it should be in contact with the body. This is a proven method and is said to be home remedy/prevention act having ayurvedic origin.

Regards.

Hi Deepa,

Take one hand full of barley seeds.
Put it in a pan.
Wash well and add 3 to 4 tumblers of water.
Allow it to boil for a while.
Stir now and then.
When it reduces into half, remove and cool it.
If you want you can add 1 sp sugar and drink.
Just drink water only.
This will cool your body.

Very nice tips.
