Excellent article--thank you. It is a challenge for my parents to stay hydrated (late 80's) so I appreciate all the things you wrote about.

Articles like these should go on in a book! I hope you’re writing one or have written one. I can’t tell you how often I have passed out or come very close to passing out in the last 15 years. I have learned to also take electrolyte or amino acid powder with me to put in my water when I’m driving or shopping. I carry a little sachets around so I can just dump them in a bottle of water. It’s really funny how sneaky dehydration can be and we do forget to drink and I like the idea of sipping often. Thank you again for a great article!

How interesting - I’d never have thought of dehydration in the winter!

Exactly — most people don’t, which is why it’s worth talking about it
