I light myself on fire, and do my best. Usually in that order.

Aight, I鈥檓 gonna lay some knowledge on you. GMOs are not bad for you excepting a very few. Scientists at Purina, yes the dog food company, are creating genetically modified corn seeds so that corn can be grown in colder climates, warmer climates, have shorter production times, and generally just improving the traits of the plants so there are stable food sources in more areas. They are working on this in corn and other seeds to help avoid a global food crisis, and it鈥檚 thanks to genetic modification. There are so many examples of good GMOs, I couldn鈥檛 name them all if I had a week to type. Non GMO foods will be less pest and disease resistant, less flavorful, and have poorer nutrition in most cases. GMOs aren鈥檛 bad for you, they are introduced to improve quality and durability so food is more available.
The potato has been genetically modified ever since scientists realized they could fight back blight that caused the Irish potato famine
ALL citrus fruits are GMO hybrids of the pomelo, mandarin, and citron- the only 3 original citrus.聽
Most people have no idea what they鈥檙e talking about when they say they鈥檙e against GMO鈥檚. No idea.聽
We need to get around to realizing that genetic modification isnt contamination, or carcinogenic chemicals, or sludge, or evil godless mutations. They aren鈥檛 horrifying and they鈥檙e grown natural just like everything else.聽

Water/Hydration
It鈥檚 still super hot and will be for a while, so hydration is key!
Remember to not drink a lot of water in one sitting, but space it out over the day. If you drink a bunch at one time it can make you feel bad and you get bloated or even throw up.
Keep a water bottle with at all times if possible, or as often as you can. It鈥檚 a good idea to keep bottled water in your car at all times so you always have some handy.
If your water never stays cold, spring for a good quality stainless steel bottle, at least 20 ounces. Ice stays in them for more than 24 hours, even in the sun. Contigo is a really good brand for water bottles and travel mugs and they have some cool colors and different seals to keep you spill free.
If you don鈥檛 like to drink water, or don鈥檛 care for the taste, look up some fruit and vegetable infusions to try. They are generally really easy to do, and make your water tasty and pretty too. Lemon Cucumber is one of my favorites. When at restaurants you can ask for water with lemon and I鈥檝e never gotten an upcharge for it, plus it can make the water taste better if they just use regular tap water.
You can get apps to remind you to drink water and help you set water goals for the day or week. Some have hourly reminders or custom reminders to keep you on track.
Stay hydrated babes!

SUNSCREEN
You should always wear sunscreen, winter, summer, spring, and fall, even when it's cloudy. The UV rays are still there. POC, yall need just as much suncare as fair ppl. Wear that sunblock and tub it in well so it won't make you look too light or streaky. Hella fair ppl, reapply as often or more than your bottle tells you to. Keep an extra bottle in your bag or car in case you need more. You may need to put sunblock on your scalp so it won't burn. Have aloe gel handy!!! It's really soothing and not just for sunburn. Aloe plants make nice decor and are easy to keep alive, when you break off a piece of it there will be goo inside and BAM, you have fresh aloe gel. Stay safe and sunkissed babes!
