Hi,
Thanks for posting the query
Yes you should drink plenty of water and other fluids. Apart from that you should maintain the below said electrolyte balance to normalize the body temperature
Electrolytes – You lose electrolytes when you sweat. Electrolytes are minerals in your blood and other body fluids that carry an electric charge. Electrolytes affect the amount of water in your body, the acidity of your blood (pH), your muscle function, and other important processes.
Magnesium – Magnesium helps with body temperature regulation. Magnesium is an essential mineral for staying healthy and is required for more than 300 biochemical reactions in the body.
Potassium levels – Potassium is known as an electrolyte and is vital to cardiovascular health. It is important to know that drinking large amounts of soda and other sugary drinks can also deplete potassium. Potassium is a water soluble vitamin which gets excreted into the urine and stool; you must get potassium every single day in your food in order to meet your needs. Common signs of low potassium include leg cramps, and low energy levels.
