VoiceAmerica Host Dr. Camille Vardy Unveils Vital Heat-Related Health Insights Amidst Unprecedented Northern Hemisphere Heat Crisis

Posted: Tuesday, July 25, 2023 at 11:07 AM CDT

Phoenix, AZ -- (SBWire) -- 07/25/2023 --With record temperatures prevailing across the Northern Hemisphere and no end in sight, we are facing an unprecedented health crisis. Not only are we witnessing record-high temperatures, but we are also experiencing sustained high temperatures, day after day after day. It's one thing for the body to handle a few hot days; however, it's an entirely different situation when those extreme temperatures persist for weeks. Dr. Camille Vardy, a Functional Medicine expert, hosted a special episode on her July 21st live radio show of Healthy Wellthy U, where she delved into the early warning signs of heat-related challenges and provided valuable insights on how to protect against serious health consequences.

With long heat waves, the body's coping mechanisms get challenged for such an extended period that they compromise our ability to cope. The symptoms come on suddenly; we feel just fine - until we don't. Could we recognize the early warning signs that indicate our bodies are struggling? And would we know what to do? Would we understand how our chronic health issues, such as heart disease, diabetes, asthma, or neurological problems, might affect how we react in a heatwave? Or would we know to look for different signs in humid heat compared to desert heat?

Awareness is particularly important for people who spend time alone. Dr. Vardy says, "Symptoms of heat exhaustion can impair our functioning to the point that we may not be aware that we are unwell or may not have the presence of mind or physical ability to deal with it. For people who live alone or spend time alone, there is a concern that we may not recognize that we need help or we might not be able to help ourselves. It is so important that we stick together, that we look after each other, that we check on each other. We need each other."
