Why Hydration Matters:

Hydration is more than just quenching your thirst; it's fundamental to every bodily function and the cornerstone of a Sustainable Healthy Lifestyle. Water makes up about 50-70% of your body weight and plays a critical role in everything from regulating body temperature to transporting nutrients and removing waste.

Recognising Dehydration:

Your body gives clear signals when it needs more water. Common signs of dehydration include:

  • Thirst
  • Dark-coloured urine
  • Fatigue or dizziness
  • Dry mouth or skin
  • Headaches
  • Reduced urine output

It's important to start rehydrating before these symptoms become severe. Using your Metabolist® bottle regularly can help prevent dehydration and ensures you look after our planet.

How Much Water Do You Need?

There's no one-size-fits-all answer, as daily water needs vary based on activity level, climate, diet, and individual health. However, a general guideline for adults in the UK is to aim for around 6-8 glasses of fluid per day, which equates to roughly 1.2-2 liters or the equivalent of 3-4 full Metabolist® 750ml Shaker Bottle. This includes water, as well as other drinks like milk, fruit juice, and tea. Pay attention to your body's signals and aim for light yellow urine as an indicator of good hydration.

Benefits of Keeping Hydrated:

Boosts Energy & Brain Function:

Even mild dehydration can impact your mood, focus, and cognitive performance, making you feel sluggish and less alert.

Enhances Physical Performance:

Water is vital for lubricating joints, transporting oxygen to muscles, and regulating body temperature during exercise. Optimal hydration can significantly improve endurance and strength.

Aids Digestion & Nutrient Absorption:

Water helps break down food, allowing your body to absorb essential nutrients. It also softens stool, preventing constipation.

Supports Detoxification:

Your kidneys rely on water to flush out waste products and toxins, keeping your system clean and functioning efficiently.

Promotes Healthy Skin:

Adequate hydration contributes to skin elasticity and a healthier, more radiant complexion.

Regulates Body Temperature:

Through sweating, water helps dissipate heat, preventing overheating during physical activity or in warm environments.
