Hydrate, Hydrate, Hydrate!

It's hard to do much without feeling like you're breaking a sweat.

So I thought, well, let's just review the basics of hydration and how it works, what happens when we don't have good hydration in our body and ways that we can make that something that's easy to incorporate into your lifestyle.

I'm going to make this a little bigger.

Why hydration matters, particularly as we get older.

Common signs that we're not drinking enough or incorporating enough water into our system.

And easy ways to improve our health.

We want to talk about how we can make this easy part of your day.

Well, I don't know if anybody has ever felt tired or dizzy before.

had a headache, or even felt constipated.

But these are all symptoms of mild dehydration.

And when you think about it, 60% of our body is made of water, 75% of the brain, and 80% of the blood.

So this not having enough water can really influence how your body works and create symptoms that, you know, if we're paying attention, we can address rather easily.

So water is going to help us do everything from deliver nutrients, remove waste, regulate your body temperature, lubricate your joints, support your digestion, maintain a good steady blood pressure, and support kidney function.

and even help your brain work.

It's a really important part of creating energy at the cellular level, which is fascinating because we don't think about it as so foundational, but I've had people be able to increase their water intake and really feel a lot more energy throughout the day and very steady and really notice a huge difference.

So it's not about just responding to thirst.

Sometimes we have to think about it in a wider perspective.

lens if we're having some of these other symptoms and make sure it's not something that we can address kind of easily.

This is just taking a long time.

I'm sorry, guys.
