00:00Health officials have just issued an urgent warning across 18 U.S. states.
00:04If you live in the South or Midwest, put down that drink.
00:08A brutal heat wave is gripping the country.
00:11Temperatures are soaring past 100 degrees.
00:14And a deadly heat dome is making it even worse.
00:17But here's the shocker.
00:18Drinking alcohol right now could be life-threatening.
00:21Why alcohol is a diuretic?
00:23It makes you urinate more.
00:25That means you lose precious fluids, and in this heat, dehydration hits fast.
00:29As fluid levels drop, your blood volume shrinks.
00:32Your organs—brain, kidneys, heart—start to suffer.
00:36You stop sweating.
00:38And your body heats up even more.
00:40That's when heat stroke strikes.
00:42Nausea, vomiting, fainting, even permanent disability.
00:46And it's not just alcohol.
00:48Coffee and soda do the same.
00:50Even protein-heavy meals could raise your body temperature.
00:53Officials say ditch the drinks and heavy meals.
00:56Go for water sports drinks.
00:57Water-rich fruits like watermelon and cucumbers.
01:01Stay inside.
01:03Wear light clothes.
01:04And take this warning seriously.
01:06Every year, heat silently claims 1,200 American lives.
01:11But experts fear that number is 10 times higher.
01:14Don't become a statistic.
01:16This heat is no joke.
01:17There's plenty of ratings.
01:23We're not sure.
01:24It's not true.
01:24It would be fine.
01:25It would be fine.
01:26You passed it normally.
01:27Let's go.
01:28Let's receive this warning.
