Eat and drink properly
What is healthy to eat in summer? Fresh and light food. Fish can be a good choice. It can keep your body energetic and help fight against the burning sun. Colorful fruit and vegetables is another good choice. They not only please your eyes, but are full of healthy chemicals(化学物质). Tomatoes can help protect your skin against sunburn. Blueberries are good for your brain and eyes. The more color, the better!
With all those summertime activities you will be thirsty. What to drink? Water. Water has zero calories（卡路里）and is the perfect drink to stop you thirst. Try not to drink too many energy drinks, sports drinks and soda drinks which have lots of sugar and caffeine（咖啡因）in them.
Stay active and cool
Summer is a great season to enjoy outdoor activities and play. It’s also a good time to lose weight.
