Ang Rehiyon Uno at buong bansa ay nakakaranas ng matinding init mula pa noong Marso at inaasahan ito hanggang Mayo dulot ng El Niño. Ang El Niño ay hindi pangkaraniwang pag-init ng karagatan sa gitna at silangan ng Pacific Ocean na nagdudulot ng matinding tagtuyot bunga ng kakaunting pag-ulan. Ang kakulangan ng tubig ay hindi lamang nakakaapekto sa problema ng agrikultura lalo na sa suplay ng pagkain kundi pati sa nutrisyon ng bawat tao kaya binuo ng National Nutrition Cluster na sumasailalim sa Health Cluster ng DOH ang National Nutrition Cluster Advisory 1 na kung saan nakapaloob sa acronym na TUBIG PA MORE na layuning ipahatidang tamang nutrisyon sa panahon ng El Niño.
Tubig na iniinom at gamit sa pagluluto ay siguruhing malinis para maiwasan ang sakit na sanhi ng maruming tubig. Pakuluan ang inuming tubig.
Uminom palagi ng tubig at ibang inumintulad ng fruit juicepara hindi maubusan ng tubig sa katawan. Kumain din ng prutas at gulay na maraming tubig tulad ng pakwan, melon, dalandan, singkamas, saging, pipino, at iba pa. Iwasan ang softdrinks, alak, kape at tsaa na lalong nakakabawas ng tubig sa katawan.
Bigyan ng karagdagang tubig-inumin ang mga nagpapasusong ina.
Iwasan ang matinding init ng araw para hindi ma-heat stroke.
Gumamit ng malinis na tubig sa paglilinis ng katawan para maiwasan ang sakit sa balat at impeksyon.
