Drink plenty of water throughout the day. Aim for at least eight glasses, or more if you’re sweating a lot or exercising. Electrolyte drinks can help replace lost salts.
Carry a water bottle with you. This makes it easy to stay hydrated on the go.
Eat fruits and vegetables with high water content. Watermelon, cucumbers, and spinach are excellent choices.
Monitor your urine color. Pale yellow urine indicates adequate hydration; dark yellow suggests dehydration. Consult your doctor if you have concerns.
Reduce caffeine and alcohol intake. These beverages can contribute to dehydration.
Listen to your body. Pay attention to thirst cues and drink water proactively, not just when you feel intensely thirsty.
Consider a humidifier, especially during dry weather. This adds moisture to the air, helping to prevent dehydration.
