Sadhguru recently shared natural remedies to combat excess body heat during summer, suggesting the consumption of ash gourd juice and green gram. He noted that symptoms of excessive heat include discomfort and dehydration. Dt Amreen Sheikh, chief dietitian at KIMS Hospitals in Thane, clarified that what people often refer to as 'body heat' is typically linked to dehydration and the body's response to high temperatures. Sheikh emphasized the importance of maintaining hydration and electrolyte balance rather than relying on quick fixes. While traditional remedies can be nutritious, she cautioned that claims of instant cooling effects should be approached with skepticism. Consistent hydration, light meals, and seasonal fruits like watermelon and cucumber are recommended for effective heat management. Sheikh also debunked myths about the effectiveness of extremely cold drinks, which can disrupt digestion. Overall, she advised listening to one's body and making mindful dietary choices to stay comfortable during the hot months.
