We hope everyone has a happy and healthy "Thirsty Thursday"! One of our Registered Dietitians, Leslie Johnson, provided important information on a simple, yet overlooked health tip- Drinking enough water! This wellness subject is one that confuses a lot of people! Hydration guidelines can feel all over the place because needs vary based on body size, activity level, environment, and even diet. 💧The general recommendation from the U.S. National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine is- •2.7 L (91 oz) per day for Women •3.7 L (125 oz) for Men This includes ALL fluids and water from food. Since about 20% of our water typically comes from food, that leaves around 75 oz (for women) and 100 oz (for men) from drinks like water, tea, coffee, etc.💧 With summer fast approaching, let's all focus on staying hydrated so that we can enjoy our favorite activities without feeling rough from dehydration! What are some ways that you find make it easier to drink more water? Are you hitting your daily water intake goal?
