Pakistani television personality and medical professional, Dr. Shaista Lodhi, has once again used her platform for public benefit—this time by offering crucial health advice during the ongoing heatwave. Known for her vibrant presence on both television and digital platforms, Shaista took to Instagram to share some timely reminders aimed at keeping her followers sun-safe and hydrated in the peak summer months.
Avoid the Midday Sun and Stay Hydrated
In her Instagram story, Shaista advised avoiding direct sun exposure between 11 am and 3 pm, when temperatures tend to peak and can harm both the skin and internal health. She stressed that hydration isn't just a trend—it's survival, urging people to drink water even before they feel thirsty. Furthermore, she emphasized that plain water may not be enough in extreme heat. Instead, she recommended electrolyte-rich fluids such as ORS or coconut water to replenish essential salts and minerals.
