The best way to stay hydrated is to spread your water intake throughout the day. Here are a few tips to make sure you’re keeping on top of it:

• Drink a glass of water first thing in the morning when you wake up. Your body hasn’t had anything to drink since before you went to bed, so it’s a good idea to hydrate to start your day.
• Carry a water bottle with you throughout the day. You’re more likely to drink water when it’s easily available.
• Drink a glass of water before eating meals and snacks. Sometimes your body may mistake thirst for hunger, so this strategy can help prevent overeating too!
• Drink water before, during, and after exercise. The more you sweat, the more water you’ll need to restore your hydration status.
• Avoid drinking too much water close to bedtime, as nighttime bathroom trips could disrupt your sleep.

Remember to track your water intake today!
