Staying hydrated throughout the summer doesn’t necessarily mean making best friends with your CamelBak. You may be well-practised in guzzling water, but unless your body has sufficient amounts of the essential minerals<\/a> required to absorb and use the water to hydrate tissue and organs, you’re really just flushing it all through your system. The following foods<\/a> and supplements<\/a> will help your body stay hydrated and quench that constantly thirsty feeling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Coconut Water<\/a><\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

This low sodium, low carb drink is your new go-to during the long summer months of sundowners and outdoor activities. Coconut water<\/a> is a great way to stay hydrated, as it is rich in potassium, electrolytes<\/a> and natural sugars. Make sure you drink preservative-free coconut water<\/a> to get the best benefits!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Almond Milk<\/a><\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

This tasty milk alternative<\/a> is rich in potassium and magnesium<\/a> \u2013 two of the essential minerals the body needs to absorb water efficiently. Add some almond milk<\/a> to your smoothies along with ice cubes to maximise the benefit of both. Also, almond milk<\/a> ice cream? We approve.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Chia Seeds<\/a><\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

The mighty chia seed<\/a> holds about nine times its weight in water, so by drinking them (presoaked, of course), your body can digest and utilise water before it simply gets flushed out. You’re essentially sneaking hydration into your system through little omega-3 powerhouses, which is pretty clever!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Magnesium Supplements<\/a><\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

If you’re looking for extra help in the hydration department this summer, magnesium<\/a> could be just what your body is craving. This essential mineral<\/a> helps maintain proper water balance in your cells, allowing your body to absorb and retain the hydration it needs. Without enough magnesium<\/a>, your body can struggle to properly manage water, leaving you feeling like you’re just drinking and flushing it away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hyaluronic Acid Supplements<\/a><\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

While hydration starts with water, your body needs a little extra help to keep moisture locked into your tissues. That’s where hyaluronic acid<\/a> comes in. Known for its skin-hydrating powers, this natural substance helps your body retain water in the tissues, keeping your skin, joints, and organs plump and hydrated from the inside out. Taking a hyaluronic acid supplement<\/a> will help boost hydration and improve skin elasticity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With the right foods and supplements, you can keep your cells, skin, and joints happy and hydrated all summer long. Whether you’re sipping on coconut water<\/a>, adding chia seeds<\/a> to your smoothie, or giving your body a hydration boost with hyaluronic acid supplements<\/a>, these essentials will have you feeling refreshed and ready to take on the sunny season.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
