Will you be standing with the Twelfth Man? Try these tips to keep the Twelfth Man healthy and safe: • When dressing for the big game, keep in mind that wearing loose-fitting, light- colored, lightweight cotton or cotton- blend clothes allows air to circulate and body perspiration to evaporate. • Drinking water instead of sugar- sweetened beverages will help replenish body fluids. You may lose 2 to 3 quarts of water a day. Drink ing 8 ounces of cool water every 15 minutes is suggested. Use caution with drinks containing caf feine (coffee, tea and cola) and alcoholic bever ages because they may act as a diuretic that re moves water from your body, increasing urine production. You can’t always rely on thirst to tell you when you need water. • Sunglasses with UV protection, sunscreens and caps can all help protect you from the sun’s damaging rays. Remember to uncover (take your hat off) during yells though. • If you consume alcohol on game day, keep in mind that alcohol increases the level of body dehydration. The heat will increase blood circulation, and you may be unable to the body heat you would normally lose through perspiration. • Another precaution is to check the temper ature and the relative humidity. When the rel ative humidity gets to be around 75 percent, you may not sweat, and your body may be un able to lose the body heat you would normally lose through perspiration. • If you begin to experience dizziness, nau sea or chills, try sitting down for a while or| to one of the first aid stations at Kyle Field. The main station is located at the north end of the stadium (the horseshoe), and a station is lo cated on each deck as well. J If your body is not per- M spiring or producing sweat when it should be, seek medical attention at a first aid station immediately. Heat problems in cluding heat cramps, heat exhaustion and heat stroke can be very serious. Symptoms to watch for include mus cle aches and pains, ele vated body temperature, extreme fatigue, clammy skin, dizziness or fainting and lowered blood pressure. Drink extra water before you feel symptoms if you’re hot and perspiring. • If you’re tailgating with your family on game day, keep the food safe to eat. Bacteria can grow rapidly and spoil the food and your enjoyment of the game. Be sure the food is cold before placing it in the cooler. Use enough ice to keep the temperature below 40 degrees for storage of cold food. So enjoy the game, yell for the Aggies and stay healthy.
