💧 The Importance of Hydration

Why do you need water?

Water makes up about 60% of your body weight and is essential for every system in your body to function properly. It regulates body temperature, lubricates joints, protects sensitive tissues, and helps flush out waste through urination, sweat, and bowel movements.

Signs of Dehydration

Even mild dehydration can drain your energy and make you tired. Look out for these signs:

• Dark yellow urine (it should be pale yellow or clear)
• Dry mouth and lips
• Fatigue or sleepiness
• Headaches or dizziness
• Decreased skin elasticity

Tips to Drink More Water

• Carry a reusable water bottle with you everywhere you go.
• Drink a glass of water first thing in the morning when you wake up.
• Add a slice of lemon, lime, or cucumber to improve the taste.
• Eat water-rich foods like watermelon, strawberries, cucumbers, and celery.
