What is Carolyn Scott's definitive guide to summer health and wellness?

Eat light and seasonal: Load up on hydrating produce (melon, cucumbers, berries, leafy greens), lean plant proteins, and healthy fats. Keep meals colorful and mostly plants.

Hydrate strategically: Aim for steady water all day, add electrolytes if you are sweating a lot, and limit sugary drinks and excess alcohol.

Protect your skin: Mineral sunscreen, hats, sunglasses, and seeking shade in peak sun. After-sun care with aloe or gentle moisturizers.

Move with the weather: Earlier mornings or evenings for walks, runs, or bike rides; swimming and water workouts to stay cool.

Travel smart: Pack healthy snacks, stay on a sleep schedule, stretch on flights or drives, and look for veggie-heavy, dairy-free, gluten-free options when dining out.

Support stress and sleep: Wind-down routines, minimal screens at night, and a cool, dark bedroom.
