Limit added sugar
Sugary drinks can increase blood sugar levels and cause the body to excrete more water through excretion, thereby making it difficult to maintain adequate hydration.
Prioritizing drinks that contain less or no added sugar can help the body retain water better throughout the day.
Pay attention to caffeine content
Moderate amounts of caffeine usually do not have a major impact on most adults. However, consuming too much caffeine can increase dehydration because the body excretes more.
If you regularly drink coffee or caffeine-containing energy drinks, you should add filtered water or choose drinks with lower caffeine content.
Prioritize drinks with simple ingredients
Beverages with a short ingredient list often contain few additives that can cause diuretic effects. Filtered water or soft-flavored drinks with few added ingredients are often a suitable choice to help maintain adequate hydration for the body.
