Playing in hot weather creates special
stresses on the body that you must watch
for like dehydration and fatigue and in
some more severe cases, heat exhaustion.
So to perform at your best in hot heat and
to avoid health rsiks while playing sports
you need to take a few necessary precautions
like the following tips or advice:
1) wear a cap or hat
2) sun block
3) drink plenty of water
4) eat fruit slices
5) potassium tablets before and during the round
6) some salt
7) protein bars
8) don’t eat a heavy meal on the course
like a burger
9) avoid alcohol as it dehydrates the body
10) stay in the shade as much as possible when
not hitting
11) hit less balls in warming up
12. get plenty of sleep the night before
playing 18 holes
Here’s a great PEP DRINK called the “Icy” from
my sports doctor Dr. Anita Pepi that works great
in hot heat and I use while teaching in hot summer
weather. www.dr.pepi.com
squeeze the juice of two lemons into a blender
five potassium glutamate tablets
honey
water and ice
one quarter teaspoonful sea salt
one quarter teaspoonful stevia extract
blend in blender and drink up!
*Note: Consult your MD or holistic doctor
on the proper amount of potassium used
See you on the course playing your best golf!
