Hydration Hacks: 5 Drinks to Avoid During a Heatwave

 

Sugary drinks like sodas and energy drinks can increase dehydration and cause a spike in blood sugar levels.

Both caffeine and alcohol can contribute to dehydration, which can be dangerous during a heatwave.

Water is the best choice for staying hydrated, but electrolyte-replenishing drinks like coconut water and sports drinks can also be beneficial during a heatwave.

Icy drinks may feel refreshing at first, but they can cause constriction of blood vessels and make it harder for the body to regulate temperature.

Urine color can indicate hydration levels; aim for pale yellow urine to ensure you are properly hydrated.
