California hospital of its size has achieved. The hospitals also offer a broad array

Every cell in your body needs water to
stay healthy. Water also helps regulate
your temperature, cushion your organs,
lubricate your joints, and keep your
digestive system going strong.
Your body loses water through sweat,
when you use the restroom, and even
when you exhale. And that water must
be replaced. Keeping your body hydrated
is usually a matter of drinking something
when you’re thirsty and with meals.
In addition to water, beverages
such as milk, fruit juice, and even (in
moderate amounts) coffee or tea can
help meet your body’s need for fluids.
However, you may need to drink
more fluids when it’s hot out or if
you play sports or do a lot of vigorous
exercise. Otherwise, your body could
overheat or become dehydrated. You are
also more likely to become dehydrated
when you have a fever or diarrhea or
you’re vomiting.
Turn on the tap
Here are some ideas that can help you
stay well-hydrated:
Have some H2O to go.
Carry a
refillable water bottle.
Please your palate.
Don’t like how
plain water tastes? Add a lime or lemon
slice.
Plate up more produce.
Fruits and
veggies are often water-rich, including
carrots, tomatoes, lettuce,
melons, and oranges.
Up your intake.
Make
sure you drink water
before, during, and after
exercising.
Staying well-hydrated is a must
Stay hydrated.
