]]> Drinking enough water, especially on hot summer days, is extremely important for our body, for our energy levels and brain function. In case you’re struggling to drink enough water throughout the day, here are a few ways to hydrate your body besides drinking water.

Soups

Try to eat a bowl of soup for lunch every day in summer because this is a healthy and hydrating dish. Soups packed with veggies will help you up your water intake and stay hydrated.

Fruits and Veggies

Fruits that are rich in water are definitely a great option for hydrating the body when you’re bored of drinking plain water. Watermelon, strawberries, peaches, mangos, cucumbers, and oranges are all water-rich fruits and veggies that you can eat or add to your smoothies and salads.

Coconut Water

Coconut water is another healthy and refreshing alternative to plain water that’s rich in electrolytes and, unlike most other drinks, it low in calories.

Ice Pops

Treat yourself with delicious frozen treats that will keep you hydrated on hot summer days. Ice pops with fresh fruits are super easy to prepare at home and it’s a great dessert to have on hand.

]]> One of the easiest ways to keep your body healthy is to stay hydrated and for some reason, it’s really hard to drink the recommended amount of water. Water isn’t the only drink to keep you hydrated and there also some drinks you should avoid drinking. Here are three drinks that will hydrate you and two that will dehydrate you.

Best For Hydration

Water

Obviously the best way to stay hydrated is to drink water as it’s calorie-free and always available. If you’re not a huge fan of water, try putting some fruit slices in it.

Sports Drinks

Sports drinks are good after you’ve worked out or done high-intensity activity as they’re full of electrolytes. Make sure you read the labels because sports drinks can be full of artificial flavors, sweeteners, and sugar.

Tea or Coffee

Tea or coffee will give you a boost of caffeine without dehydrating you. You can also control how much sugar and additives go into your drink if you make it at home.

Worst For Hydration

Energy Drinks

Energy drinks have tons of added sugar and extra ingredients that you don’t need. If you want a boost of energy, drink tea or coffee.

Alcohol

Unfortunately, alcohol is super dehydrating and if you are drinking it outside, make sure you drink one cup of water for every alcoholic beverage you drink.
