JAKARTA - Facing high hot weather does not always have to enter the cooling room such as air conditioning and fans. Launching from Health Site, there are several alternative ways to keep the body cool even without using air conditioning and fans when the temperature is hot.

When you are in hot temperature, hydrating yourself is necessary to keep the body cool. A cool body will not be achieved if you lack fluids, so you need to drink enough water every day.
