I bet you thought that you’re better hydrated in colder weather? It makes
sense…you’re sweating less so you’re able to hold more water. However, new
studies suggest that the cold air and indoor heaters can actually dehydrate you
MORE than a 20 minute walk…and it can severely and rapidly dry out your skin.
Make sure you drink at least half your body weight number in ounces of water
each day, summer and winter to keep yourself hydrated. Being properly hydrated
will also help improve your skin health and ward off blemishes. Proper hydration
will also improve your cognitive function and give you the energy you need to
make it through the fall and winter months.
