Dr. Andrei Tyagelnikov, chief expert of the Moscow Ministry of Health, explained why it is not recommended to drink coffee, concentrated tea, sweetened soft drinks and all types of alcoholic drinks in hot weather.
The doctor says: “In hot weather, you should not drink sweetened soft drinks because the sugar they contain does not quench thirst but only leads to increased dehydration. In addition, the person gets a lot of extra calories. Also, you should not drink a lot of coffee and tea.” Concentrate because they have a diuretic effect, which leads to the excretion of valuable minerals with fluids.”
According to him, it is strictly prohibited to consume alcoholic beverages of all kinds because they increase the burden on the heart and blood vessels and on the body in general, which is working at maximum capacity. Drinking alcoholic beverages in the heat can also lead to heart attacks and other serious health consequences. Smokers are also advised to abstain from smoking because the toxic effect of tobacco increases several times in the heat.
He says: “The volume of water consumed increases at high air temperatures. Each person has his own water standard, depending on his weight, activity, and air temperature, but the general recommendation is to drink at least 2.5 liters per day. Water should be drunk every hour, about 100 milliliters.” "So that the burden on the kidneys does not increase, this amount must be increased during intense physical activity."
According to him, lemon or mint juice can be added to the water.
He says: "You can drink herbal tea and unsweetened fruit juice. As for mineral water, it must be taken in doses because it contains salts."
