Healthy U: January 2025 Edition
As the temperatures drop and the winter season settles in, many of us shift our focus to staying warm. However, one important health aspect often gets overlooked during the colder months: hydration.
Did you know that dehydration can still affect you in winter, just like in the summer? Cold weather, dry indoor heat, and reduced thirst signals can all contribute to an increased risk of dehydration. Here's how you can stay on top of your hydration game even when the chill sets in:
Drink Water Regularly: Don’t wait until you feel thirsty! Aim to drink water consistently throughout the day. Even if you’re not feeling thirsty, try to drink small amounts every hour.
Hydrating Foods: Incorporate water-rich foods like soups, stews, and vegetables into your meals. Fruits like oranges, apples, and pears are also great hydrating options.
