Tips to Improve Hydration
- Water Always at Hand: Always keep a bottle of water nearby and drink regularly throughout the day.
- Flavored Water: If you don't like plain water, add lemon slices, cucumber or mint leaves for flavor.
- Monitoring: Monitor your fluid intake, especially on hot days or during exercise, to ensure you are consuming adequate amounts.
- Substitutions: Replace sugary drinks and sodas with water or unsweetened teas. These drinks can contribute to increased blood glucose levels.
