Summer Heat Increases Your Need for Fluids
From Tammy Roberts, Nutrition and Health Education Specialist
The summer heat of 2012 has been relentless. With these extreme temperatures sweating increases and so does the risk for dehydration.
The summer heat of 2012 has been relentless. With these extreme temperatures sweating increases and so does the risk for dehydration.
Hydration is important because water makes up about 60% of your body’s weight and is an important part of many body processes. It helps regulate body temperature, heart rate and blood pressure. Water is present in every cell in the body and helps nerves and muscles function. Water helps to transport nutrients and helps with elimination of waste.
Mild dehydration is when you have lost 2-5% of your body fluids. Symptoms of mild dehydration include thirst, dry mouth and throat, rapid pulse, low blood pressure, weakness or a lack of energy, and reduced quantity of urine. When there is a fluid loss of more than 5%, the body has severe reactions which includes pale skin, bluish fingertips and lips, rapid, shallow breathing, weak, irregular pulse, and confusion or disorientation. It can result in shock, seizures, coma and death.
An estimated amount of fluid for a person who burns about 2,000 calories a day is about 8-12 cups. “That may sound like a lot to drink but you really don’t have to drink that much. Fluid can also come from the foods you eat” said Tammy Roberts from University of Missouri Extension. Celery, cucumber, lettuce and summer squash are 90-95% water. Grapefruit, strawberries, broccoli and tomato are 90-94% water, and yogurt, egg white, fruit juices, apples and carrots are 80-89% water.
An important thing to keep in mind is that the thirst mechanism can become weak in senior citizens so they may need to implement a way of assuring they drink enough. “Some people pour a pitcher of six or so cups of water in the morning and assure they drink it by the time they go to bed” said Tammy. At the other end of the life span is children who often don’t honor thirst cues. It is important to assure they are drinking enough fluids. A good gauge of hydration is the color of their urine. A dark color is an indicator they are not drinking enough.

Summer is a great time for many outdoor activities. Just remember that if you are sweating, that precious fluid needs to be replaced. Next time you leave the house; don’t forget your water bottle!

Obituary - Wayne Deel
Graveside funeral services for Wayne Deel will be 3:00 PM Tuesday, August 7, 2012 in Sharon Cemetery, Drexel, Missouri. Visitation prior to funeral services from 1-2:30 PM at Mullinax Funeral Home, Drexel, Missouri (816) 657-4400. Contributions to Drexel FFA or Drexel Lions Club.
Wayne Deel, 84, died August 5, 2012 at Adrian Manor in Adrian, Missouri. Wayne was born January 17, 1928 in Miami County, Kansas, son of Carl Wilson and Vick Doris (Bodenhamer) Deel.
Wayne was a longtime rural farmer along with his father. He could grow corn taller than anyone in the area. He helped build Linn Valley Golf Course, and was a green’s keeper and mower until his retirement in 2010. Working at the golf course was just like being in a big back yard to him. People always said, what normal people got done in four days, Wayne got done in one. Wayne served in the U.S. Navy from 1945-1947.
Wayne took great pride in his yard and had a flourishing garden. He would always share his produce with everyone. He also enjoyed woodworking, and coon hunting with his best friend, Wayne Bishop. Wayne also took several big game hunting trips to the Rockies, which he always prepared for and greatly enjoyed. In later years, he loved to travel and went on many adventures with his children and extended family. He will be missed.
Wayne was preceded in death by his wife of 62 years, Dorothy; his parents; and brother-in-law Gene Ullrich.
He is survived by his children Vicki Hotsenpiller and husband Bill; Daryl Deel and wife Pat; Dixie Fink and husband Joe; Dennis Deel, Debbie Shannon and husband Doug; a sister LaVon Ullrich of Scottsdale, Arizona; and nephews Doug and David Ullrich of Phoenix, Arizona. Wayne also leaves behind 12 grandchildren; eight great-grandchildren, with two on the way!
