Did you know…dehydration is a stress on the body?

In any surveys I’ve done over the years that ask people about daily water consumption, it’s clear that most people are at least slightly dehydrated.

But although many people know water is necessary for survival, most only care about the short term effects on appearance (ie/chapped lips, dry hair, or dry skin which can lead to wrinkles and premature aging) and don’t really consider what’s happening on the inside. What they don’t know is that dehydration can lead to hormone imbalance, weight gain, fatigue, joint pain, poor sleep, heartburn, muscle loss, headaches, and so on.

So go fill up your water glass and drink up! If you drink a glass for every hour at work, you’ve hit your minimum requirement for the day. Good luck!
