Hi friends! Scorching temperatures have risen across the country this week and we are all struggling to cope with such hot weather. Not only is it impossible to sleep at night, but also when working at home (at a distance) we try to concentrate with all our might, far from the usual air conditioner, which was left in the workplace.

However, there are a few simple tricks that you can try to somehow feel the inner coolness. Here are the best foods to add to your shopping list...

1. Tomatoes

Tomatoes are rich in the antioxidant lycopene, known as a powerful cancer prevention agent. Red and yellow tomatoes are 94% water, while green tomatoes are 93%. This vegetable is good in salad, perfect for sandwiches. It can be easily added to everyday meals.

2. Leafy greens

Dark green leafy vegetables 80-95% water, which makes them very easily digestible. This means that they quickly pass through the digestive system, causing a cooling sensation in the body.

3. Melon

Cool melon will quench even the most intense thirst. A small slice of melon makes an excellent refreshing impression. Melon is low in calories and rich in water (95%), making it also a cooling snack.

4. Watermelon

Watermelon is 92% water. Watermelon juice is one of the most purified forms of water and is an excellent kidney cleanser. It can help with skin irritation, sunburn, chapped lips, mouth ulcers, and fever, and is probably the most powerful diuretic for eliminating fluid retention. It is also beneficial for weight loss.

5. Celery

It's almost true that celery is a zero-calorie vegetable, 95 percent water. Plus, there are only 16 calories in a cup of chopped celery!

6. Broccoli

Whether you like it or not, but broccoli is great for everyone. This vegetable is known as a smart carbohydrate and is rich in fiber, which aids digestion, maintains low blood sugar, and prevents constipation. These cruciferous vegetables seem thick, but they are actually 91% water, although many would argue that a glass of water tastes better than this green alternative.

7. Soups

Soup automatically reminds us of a cold winter day when it's snowing outside and you are sitting on the couch sipping borscht. However, recipes with a high liquid content help to achieve hydration levels, and choosing a lighter vegetable cold soup, (beetroot, okroshka on kefir) the most suitable seasonal option.

8. Berries

Strawberries, blackberries, blueberries, raspberries and cranberries. According to traditional Chinese medicine, they generate cold energy in the body.

9. Cucumbers

Cucumbers are a great vegetable for hot summer days as they contain a lot of water, which helps keep you cool. In fact, cucumbers are 95% water. Be sure to keep them raw, as after cooking a lot of moisture and water comes out of them.

I wish you to endure the heat well and God bless you!
