How much water do you need in a day? How do we get electrolytes? Could my thirst be falsely interpreted as hunger? Are gummi bears hydrating?
Michael will definitely argue that last point in this episode. But there's much more in this conversation to help you hone in on your hydration needs. We discuss electrolytes, amounts, hydrating foods, thirst mechanisms and a few examples of circumstances where special attention to hydration is of utmost importance. Grab a cold one and join us!
