Summer on peak, keep your self hydrated , may be it is draining
out our energy and you are not aware of it check out the symptoms of
dehydration , Unfortunately, thirst isn't always a reliable gauge of the body's
need for water, especially in children and older adults. A better indicator is
the color of your urine: Clear or light-colored urine means you're well
hydrated, whereas a dark yellow or amber color usually signals dehydration.
Mild to moderate dehydration is likely to cause:

Severe dehydration, a medical emergency, can cause:
- Extreme thirst
- Extreme fussiness or sleepiness in infants and children; irritability and confusion in adults
- Very dry mouth, skin and mucous membranes
- Little or no urination — any urine that is produced will be darker than normal
- Sunken eyes
- Shriveled and dry skin that lacks elasticity and doesn't "bounce back" when pinched into a fold
- In infants, sunken fontanels — the soft spots on the top of a baby's head
- Low blood pressure

- Rapid breathing
- No tears when crying
- Fever
- In the most serious cases, delirium or unconsciousness
Avoid cold drinks to hydrate as they are more toxic to
your body, pick healthy drinks like coconut water , lemon mint juice , normal
water , cucumber and melons to stay healthy in this summer. Always keep in
mind what to take where avoid to have fruits out side , it may cause infection
, always have fruits at home , out side best pick is normal water and coconut
water.
