How to Drink Water Properly During Hot Summer Days?

Why proper hydration matters in summer

How to drink water properly in hot weather is essential to protect your body from exhaustion and dehydration. High temperatures increase sweating, which leads to water and electrolyte loss.

Without enough water, you may feel dizzy, nauseated, have dry mouth, or even experience rapid heartbeat. Severe dehydration causes fatigue, pale skin, sunken eyes, and fast breathing.

How much water do you need?

According to nutrition experts:

  • Women need about 2 liters/day.

  • Men need about 2.5 liters/day.

  • People who exercise or stay outdoors need even more.

Warning signs of dehydration

  • Dry mouth and tongue

  • Dizziness or nausea

  • Dark yellow or brown urine

  • Tiredness and lack of focus

  • Fast heartbeat

Hydration sources beyond water

Besides drinking water, try:

  • Vegetables: bok choy, kale, carrots

  • Juices: tomato, orange, grapefruit, apple, watermelon

These also provide vitamins and minerals to boost immunity and support skin health.

Tips on how to drink water properly in hot weather

  1. Don’t wait until you’re thirsty. Sip water throughout the day.

  2. Drink small sips instead of large amounts at once.

  3. Avoid icy water to prevent temperature shock.

  4. Carry your own water bottle when going out.

  5. Choose clean water or fresh juice.

Conclusion

Knowing how to drink water properly in hot weather helps your body stay energized and alert. Stay hydrated to enjoy your summer healthily and comfortably.
