This is one of major ways to prevent heat stroke. Do not wait until you're thirsty before you take water. Take more of fruits and less of alcohol and carbonated drinks.

Every season has an outfit for it. Hot season for instance the best outfit for it is light wears. This will help the body to cool itself after sweating.

No I have never had a heat stroke in my entire life and I haven't seen someone it happened to before, but I do hear about it.

In conclusion, heat stroke is a serious medical condition that can be quite detrimental to health if not taken seriously. The first aid given to a heat stroke victim is to move the victim to a cool place.
