Stay Hydrated and Protect Your Heart on Hot Summer Days

When your body loses too much fluid, blood volume decreases, forcing your heart to beat faster to circulate blood. Dehydration can also disrupt important electrolytes that help regulate your heart rhythm.

This summer, remember to:
💧 Hydrate before you feel thirsty
❤️ Pay attention to warning signs like dizziness, chest discomfort, or heart palpitations
⚡ Know where the nearest AED is located

Staying ahead of dehydration is a simple step that can help protect your heart during hot weather.

🚭 Va**ng: What should students and families know about the health risks?

Va**ng remains a growing concern for the well-being of teens and young adults. While e-ci******es are sometimes viewed as a safer alternative to traditional ci******es, they can still expose users to ni****ne and potentially harmful chemicals.

Dr. Pramil N. Singh, Professor of Cancer Sciences and Director of the Transdisciplinary To***co Research Program at Loma Linda University, explains why va**ng is especially concerning for developing brains and bodies.

From ni****ne’s effects on attention, learning, and memory to the appeal of flavored products and the risks of dual use with ci******es, there is still much families should know.

🛏️ How often should you really wash your bedding?

According to Dr. Ryan Sinclair, Professor of Environmental Microbiology at Loma Linda University, clean bedding is more important than many people realize. Dead skin cells, body oils, sweat, skin care products, and even pet dander can quickly build up on your sheets and pillowcases, creating an environment for bacteria and allergens.

Recommendations:
- Wash your bedding at least once a week.
- Change or wash your pillowcase every 3-4 days.
- If you sleep with pets, have allergies, or use skincare products before bed, consider washing your bedding even more frequently. 🐾
