Like lots of people, I'm on medication that makes it hard for me to regulate my body temperature- psychiatric meds. I've got a ventilated mesh suit already and a water sprayer, but last year still had a few instances of mild heat stroke and am struggling to get round all my hives without suffering the same again. I've seen these ice vests people wear but am wondering, asides from that and a neck fan ive akready got, if anyone has any hacks or supplements you can take to lower body temperature. Currently a garden parasol is about to get freighted round my home apiary but doesn't seem a practical solution in the long-term or at out apiaries. Beekeeping is feeling pure attrition in this, cheers
