How to keep cool in hot weather Most of us welcome hot weather, but when it's too hot, there are health risks. Here are three ways to keep cool according to the NHS... Keep out of the heat if you can. If you have to go outside, stay in the shade especially between 11am and 3pm, wear sunscreen, a hat and light clothes, and avoid exercise or activity that makes you hotter. Cool yourself down. Have cold food and drinks, avoid alcohol, caffeine and hot drinks, and have a cool shower or put cool water on your skin or clothes. Keep your living space cool. Close windows during the day and open them at night when the temperature outside has gone down. Electric fans can help if the temperature is below 35 degrees. Check the temperature of rooms, especially where people at higher risk live and sleep. Most of them work by comparing the prices across hundreds of retailers.

This Dyson HEPA Air Purifier Is at an All-Time Low, No Need to Wait For Memorial Day
Dyson is a premium UK company that has established itself through brilliant engineering, minimalist design, and exceptional reliability. Comparable to Apple in domestic appliances, Dyson products rarely find themselves on offer so any discount of a significant amount is a big story. That is why the deal on the Dyson Purifier Cool TP10 (1st gen) at Amazon is so good: For a limited time, you can have this revolutionary air purifier and fan for just $299 which is a full 30% off its normal price of $429. This is an all-time low on this model and a special chance to bring Dyson's legendary performance into your life at a much lower price. See at Amazon Quality and Technology This Dyson product is both purified and cooled, and it employs Dyson's famous Air Multiplier technology in order to spread purified air uniformly throughout the entire room. As opposed to traditional fans or air purifiers that only exert limited influence on the immediate surroundings, the TP10 sends out a powerful stream of purified air and reaches every corner and helping to create a cleaner and cozier living space for your loved ones. One of the most impressive things about the TP10 is its totally sealed HEPA filter system. Dyson has designed this purifier to stringent HEPA standards which means that it filters 99.97% of particles as small as 0.3 microns. Dust, pollen, pet dander and even certain bacteria are all sucked in and trapped, so what comes in, stays in. This is especially useful for allergy patients or anyone worried about indoor air quality. The TP10 also comes equipped with a night mode, which cleans and senses the air under its most silent modes and silences the display so that your sleep won't be interrupted when your air remains fresh and clean. The Dyson TP10 is also very practical: Its sleek, bladeless design is also pet- and child-friendly for families. The unit moves up to 350 degrees and allows it to spread purified air extensively and efficiently. You may set it to turn off automatically after specified intervals of 1, 2, 4, or 8 hours for convenience and peace of mind, especially if you like to sleep with the fan running. Though the TP10 is not smartphone-compatible, it also comes with a curved, magnetized remote that easily fits onto the machine itself and hence is never out of reach. Given Dyson's rare approach to discounts, this pre Memorial Day deal is unlikely to last long. See at Amazon
