- Consume between 2 and 2.5 liters of fluid a day, bring you the food, such as fruits and vegetables, water and drinks. At meals it is also necessary to maintain proper hydration.
- Situations such as heat and environmental dryness and other special circumstances may favor dehydration. If you have symptoms such as thirst, dry mucous membranes and skin or decreased urine output, drinks with mineral salts-in particular sodium- and rapidly absorbed sugars can facilitate better rehydration.
- If you make physical activity and exercise, albeit moderately, you should hydrate before, during and after practice because exercise causes the removal of water and mineral salts. physical activities in the middle of the day are not recommended during the summer.
- If you perform some type of diet can vary your specific water requirements and therefore your hydration needs. Always follow a routine pattern of fluid intake throughout the day, with special attention to moments of warmth and physical activity.
