Keep Hydrated!

With the onset of warmer weather, the risk of dehydration increases.  Here are a few tips that may help you stay hydrated this summer:

#1)  Put a bottle of water in different parts of your house, so no matter where you are, it is easy to have a sip.  

#2)  Stay away from beverages with high sugar-content.  If you prefer flavored beverages to plain water, add lemon or a fruit infusion.

#3)  Eat plenty of foods with high water-content.  Watermelon is an obvious choice (each bite you take of watermelon is 92% water!), but there are plenty of other options.  Try these:

          * Grapefruit (91% water)

          * Blueberries (85% water)

          * Bananas (74% water)

          * Tomatoes (94% water)

          * Carrots (87% water)

          * Bell Peppers (91% water)

          * Cucumbers (96% water)
