Jyotiraditya Scindia, a Lok Sabha MP representing Guna in Madhya Pradesh, shared his unconventional approach to handling the intense summer heat during a gathering in Shivpuri. He revealed that he avoids air conditioning in both his car and workplace, instead opting for traditional methods such as covering his head and carrying an onion in his pocket. Scindia humorously referred to the heat as a testament to his 'Chambal skin' and urged attendees to embrace these old practices as Ayurveda gains recognition. While onions can aid slightly in hydration due to their water content, they are not a substitute for proper hydration methods like oral rehydration solutions or water. To effectively combat the heat, Scindia also recommended regular water intake, staying in shaded areas, wearing light clothing, and consuming water-rich fruits like watermelon and cucumber.
