Good for your neighbors for thinking of you! Melons and cucumbers help to keep you from getting heat exhaustion/stroke and actually bring your body temp down. You can eat them when you have a fever too. It not only helps prevent the condition but is also a remedy should you get too heated. Just eat some melon or cucumber and then get some rest. Works every time for me.
