hydration Focus – health tips for better health & wellness 

This list emphasizes the importance of proper hydration for maintaining optimal health. Here are the key recommendations on hydration:

1. Drink Adequate Water:

   – Aim to drink at least half your body weight in ounces of water daily. For example, if you weigh 100kg, you should drink at least 3 litres of water each day. Adjust intake based on activity level, climate, and individual needs.

2. Quality of Water:

   – Consume high-quality, pure water. Chek recommends using filtered or spring water to avoid contaminants commonly found in tap water, such as chlorine, heavy metals, and other impurities.

3. Hydration Timing:

   – Spread water intake throughout the day rather than consuming large amounts all at once. Start your day with a glass of water to rehydrate after sleep and continue drinking at regular intervals.

4. Electrolyte Balance:

   – Ensure a proper balance of electrolytes, especially if you engage in strenuous physical activities or live in a hot climate. Chek suggests adding a pinch of sea salt to your water or consuming natural electrolyte sources such as coconut water.

5. Avoid Dehydrating Beverages:

   – Limit consumption of dehydrating beverages like coffee, alcohol, and sugary drinks. These can contribute to dehydration and counteract the benefits of water intake.

6. Listen to Your Body:

   – Pay attention to your body’s signals of thirst and hydration status. Dark urine, dry mouth, and fatigue can be signs of dehydration. Adjust your water intake accordingly.

7. Hydrate with Food:

   – Incorporate water-rich foods into your diet, such as fruits and vegetables. These foods can contribute to your overall hydration and provide additional nutrients.

8. Customize Hydration Needs:

   – Consider individual factors such as body weight, age, activity level, and environment when determining your hydration needs. Customize your water intake to fit your specific circumstances.

By following these hydration guidelines,  individuals can support their overall health, improve energy levels, enhance physical performance, and promote better bodily functions.
