Many of us think of summer as a healthy time of year, but it isn't always that simple. According to experts, heat, dehydration, poor sleep, digestive issues, and constantly moving between hot outdoor temperatures and air-conditioned spaces can put extra stress on the body and leave us feeling more vulnerable to illness. The effects may be subtle at first, showing up as fatigue, headaches, stomach problems, brain fog, or simply feeling "off" for no obvious reason.
Experts also point to the important link between gut health and immunity. Changes in eating habits, drinking less water than we need, disrupted sleep schedules, and the physical strain of hot weather can all take a toll over time.

Yes it's rough for me right now. I'm down in Florida right now. The heat is horrible. But it's beautiful here. I'm here to put my husband to rest. In the ocean. When he pass away 5yrs ago was his last request to be put in the ocean so I'm going to get are kids and grandkids here. And we are going to release him. But I'm going to keep a little bit of him. So he will be with me wherever I my be.
Thanks Everyone for
