In the summer, everyone likes to drink fresh fruit juices, but they are not enough to get the necessary vitamins. High temperatures make us sweat more. Thus we remove excess water, but we also lose our accumulated reserves of vitamins. The human body can adapt to any conditions, but why not help it cope with the heat more easily?
What are the most important vitamins for you in the summer?
First is vitamin C, of course, you know how useful it is for your immune system. But did you know that it helps your body cope with the heat more easily and helps prevent sunstroke? In addition, taking vitamin C boosts collagen production and makes the skin more radiant and soft.
You should not forget vitamin E, which, unlike vitamin C, can penetrate the membranes of your skin cells and provide you with additional protection from the sun.
How to get the necessary vitamins for the summer?
It is not necessary to take a huge amount of nutritional supplements. A very large part of the vitamins you need are contained in fruits and vegetables.
Add natural sources of nutrients to your diet. Are you wondering what these superfoods might be? Here are some of our suggestions for your summer menu:
Tomatoes
Tomatoes are extremely useful. They contain a substance that gives them their bright red color and through it, they provide protection from the sun’s ultraviolet rays. This substance is also useful for our cells. Tomatoes also contain vitamins such as potassium, vitamins B and E, which lower blood pressure, a problem that everyone has faced during the summer.
Celery

swollen belly on the beach, you can safely eat celery, because it stimulates the kidneys to work faster, making them clear waste and excess body fluid.
Cucumbers
They are vegetable that contains 95% water. This makes them ideal for summer because through them you will hydrate and get a variety of vitamins such as B and C as well as minerals such as copper, phosphorus, potassium, and magnesium.
