Obesity and Metabolic Surgery Specialist Op. Dr. Türker Karabuğa made important recommendations by saying that sodium and potassium losses, which are essential minerals of the body, increase due to the effect of hot weather in summer or sweating during sports, and that magnesium deficiency can also be seen in hot weather.

Water Consumption Should Be Increased

In the deficiency of minerals; Saying that symptoms such as fatigue, muscle cramps, weakness, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, headache, and dizziness can be seen, Op. Dr. Türker Karabuğa said, “Fortunately, thanks to the increasing variety of vegetables and fruits, especially in the summer months, it becomes easier to meet your mineral needs from food. In addition, healthy fats such as nuts and avocados, which you will add to your diet in portion control, are also good sources of minerals. I recommend that you do not choose drinks that will increase mineral loss along with water from your body with their diuretic effect, such as coffee, energy drinks or sugary cold drinks. Instead, water consumption should be increased, and plain mineral water support can be taken on days when the above-mentioned symptoms due to mineral deficiency are severe.

Gastric Gastric Patients Caution

Providing advice for patients with tube stomach, Op. Dr. Karabuğa said, “Since the consumption of acidic beverages is prohibited in these patients, plain mineral water is also prohibited. However, it is okay for patients who have undergone bariatric surgery to keep the mineral water in an open container or mix it with water or buttermilk, then remove the gas and consume it.
