Sun! Swimming! Barbecues! Fireworks! Who doesn’t love a good Independence Day celebration? To many of us, it’s not just about celebrating our great nation and proudly displaying our red, white and blue, but it’s also about spending time with family and friends, being outdoors, and of course, seeing the fireworks!
Remember… July is hot! Be sure to drink plenty of water to keep your body from overheating, and stay away from caffeinated and sugary drinks that dehydrate you. Keep plenty of fresh fruit on hand too, as fruits are packed with vitamins, fiber, and water!
