Body Heat Remedies: These 5 superfoods will keep the body cool from inside in extreme heat, will immediately reduce body heat and increase hydration.

News India Live, Digital Desk: The mercury has crossed 40 degrees in North India. In such a situation, it is not enough to just run a fan or AC from outside, it is also very important to keep the body cool from inside. Increased body heat not only makes you restless, but it also causes digestive problems, skin rashes and weakness. According to Ayurveda and nutrition experts, there are some natural ‘cooling agents’ present in our kitchen which show magical effect in balancing body temperature and maintaining electrolytes.

1. Gond Katira: Ayurveda’s ‘Natural Cooler’

There is nothing better than Gond Katira to beat the rising heat. It is very cooling in nature and is a panacea in protecting from heatstroke.

How to use: Soak one spoon of Gond Katira in water overnight. In the morning it will become like jelly. Drink it by mixing it with milk, sherbet or curd. It not only cools the body but also provides relief from the problem of constipation.

2. Sattu: ‘Power Drink’ of North India

Sattu made from roasted gram is the cheapest and best hydrating food for summers. It is rich in protein and gives instant energy to the body.

Benefit: Drinking Sattu sherbet keeps the stomach cool for a long time. The fiber present in it keeps the digestive system healthy and does not allow dehydration in the body.

3. Curd and buttermilk: a treasure trove of electrolytes

Consumption of probiotics is mandatory in summer. Curd and buttermilk not only hydrate the body, but also replenish essential minerals and electrolytes lost from the body through sweat.

Tip: Mix some roasted cumin and black salt in buttermilk and drink. It speeds up digestion and absorbs the internal heat of the body.

4. Coconut Water: Natural Glucose

If you live in a lot of sunlight, coconut water is the safest option for you. It contains potassium and magnesium in abundance.

Bearing: It improves blood circulation and keeps the skin hydrated and protects it from damage caused by sun rays.

5. Watermelon and Cucumber: Fruits rich in ‘water’

Both of these contain more than 90% water. Lycopene present in watermelon helps in fighting the heat of the sun, while cucumber keeps the body free from toxins.

Caution: Avoid eating watermelon at night, eating it during the day is most beneficial.

Also keep these things in mind:

Avoid caffeine: Tea and coffee dehydrate the body, replace them with lemon water or aam panna.

Light meal: In this season, eating more oily and spicy food further increases body heat.
