The Dangers of Not Being Fully Hydrated
Dehydration occurs when you lose more fluid than you take in, and your body doesn’t have enough water and other fluids to carry out its normal functions. If you start to feel thirsty, that means you are already dehydrated! A mere 5% drop in water levels in the body can cause a 25-30% loss in energy. Symptoms of dehydration include:
- Dry mouth
- Thirst
- Decreased and dark urine
- Dry skin
- Dizziness
- Headache
- Sleepiness
The Incredible Benefits of a Truly Hydrated Body
Weight Loss – Water increases your metabolism and helps you feel full! Did you know that thirst can be mistaken for hunger? Drinking ice cold water helps to burn calories because your body has to work to bring down that water temperature.
Increased Energy – One of the symptoms of dehydration is sleepiness and loss of energy. What better way to combat those feelings than to grab a nice, tall glass of water. Water helps your blood to transport oxygen to your cells. More oxygen means more energy!
Less Stress – Your brain tissue is 85% water. If you’re dehydrated, it’s causing stress on both your brain and your body. Decrease those stress levels by increasing your water intake.
Rejuvenated Skin – Fine lines and wrinkles are deeper when you’re dehydrated. Water is nature’s own beauty cream. Increased water intake results in hydrated and plump skin cells which can give you a youthful appearance. Water also flushes out impurities and improves circulation and blood flow, leaving your face clean, clear and glowing.

My little son likes to drink juices over water no matter what kind of bottle I put the water in. Any tips on how to get him to drink more water?
Hi, Braxton. We suggest you mix fruits and vegetables in your water to make flavored detox water. You can slice lemons, watermelons, strawberries, or even cucumbers to make your water more appetizing to your son. Mix these with alkaline water for the best results!
