The Importance of Staying Hydrated

Staying hydrated is important for overall health. It helps to regulate your body temperature, flush out toxins, and keep your joints lubricated.

When you are dehydrated, you may experience:

  • Fatigue

  • Headache

  • Dizziness

  • Constipation

  • Dry skin

  • Dark urine

The best way to stay hydrated is to drink plenty of fluids throughout the day. Water is the best choice, but you can also drink unsweetened tea, coffee, and fruit juice.

The recommended daily intake of fluids is 8 glasses for women and 10 glasses for men. However, your fluid needs may vary depending on your activity level, climate, and other factors.

It is important to listen to your body and drink when you are thirsty. If you are not sure if you are drinking enough fluids, talk to your doctor.
