- Just in time for the torrid days of summer, a publication from the Food
- and Drug Administration is available. It is a reprint from the FDA Consumer
- Magazine, and its title indicates its usefulness at this time. It is called
- "Cool Tips for a Hot Season," and you will find this 8 page, full size
- publication a great source of useful information for this time of the year. It
- describes the effects of sunlight and the use of sunscreens, as well as
- "bronzers" and tanning pills. If you overdo it despite the good advice, the
- section on Soothing the Burn may help. A second article explains all you
- would ever want to know about "The Right Shades" and how sunglasses are
- constructed. The last piece in this publication describes jelly fish and
- stingray stings, some perspectives on shellfish as a food, and the precautions
- you should know about. It is an altogether readable and instructive
- publication. For your single copy, address your request to: FDA-HFE-88, 5600
- Fishers Lane, Rockville, MD 20857. Ask for a reprint of FDA article #93-1202,
- "Cool Tips for a Hot Season". No need for a self addressed envelope, this
- one's on the government. It will only take a couple of weeks before you will
- find your copy of this timely publication in your mail.
