Signs that You are Dehydrated

Maintaining proper hydration is essential to overall good health. Without water, your cells can’t function, which is why humans can only survive a few days without fluids.

Unfortunately, many adults and kids don’t consume enough fluids, which can lead to chronic dehydration.

What’s more, conditions like diarrhea, vomiting, and excessive sweating can lead to acute or short-term dehydration.

Dehydration can negatively affect many aspects of health and even be life threatening in severe cases, so it’s important to know the potential signs and symptoms of dehydration in both adults and kids.

Now that warm weather is here, know the signs of dehydration. You’ll notice that some signs are just ‘weird’: Bad breath? Dark urine? Chapped lips? Take care when you are in the great outdoors for any of the following signs.
