Foods to beat the heat

Posted: Updated:

(CNN) - When the weather is hot and sticky the foods you love may not seem as appetizing, but you can help your body beat the heat by changing your grocery list.

To replace that water you lose when you sweat, Registered Dietitian Rebecca Scritchfield recommends stocking up on fruits and veggies, which are almost all water, and quite nutritious.

Fill your cart with alternative sources of fat instead of processed or, especially, fried foods. Your best sources of fat in this heat are going to be from seeds and nuts and avocados.
