HEAT WAVE - why so many people eat things that make it worse.

[Anonymous]

It is so hot outside, the last couple of days are brutal, but when you see what people are ordering in any given place it is hair raising.
Tons of breads, starches, gluten heavy foods and they load on them. Not everyone of course but many do and then the same people seem to leave the place holding their belly with both hands massaging it gently like they carry a baby and they waddle outside the place into the heat. What is the next step I wonder.. ER?

Why it is not a common knowledge that in hot heat and humid foods to limit or avoid altogether for the time of the extreme heat are:
- starches.. rice.. potatoes..
- gluten .. pastas.. breads..
- salty foods
- salt
- meat
- spicy food

Feel free to add to the list and add foods that are good and light.

How many times a day must you eat out to be able to be making this observation?

Actually, spicy food causes people to sweat, which actually cools them down.

And OP, you're SUPPOSED to eat salty foods when it's hot, to replenish salts lost through sweat. Water isn't the only thing helpful for hydration.

Also OP, people's bodies are different. There isn't one uniform formula that works for human bodies. I don't understand why you care - or think you know better than other people, just because YOUR body likes things a certain way.

Have you met Mexico? Or any temperature-hot country?

Spicy things are good to eat when it is hot. As is soup.

Came to say just this. Counter-intuitive, but spicy food is great in the heat.
