~50% of our body composition is water~

We've all heard the cardinal rule for daily water consumption... "Adults need 6 to 8- 8oz glasses of water". But this isn't personalized for you or your activity level. YOUR WEIGHT determines your body's need. Other factors to consider are activity level, outside temperature, pregnancy, diet, and medications/health conditions.

Here's a more personalized way to estimate how much water YOU should be drinking:

1. Take your weight (in lb) and multiply by 0.5. That number is the minimum ounces you should be drinking per day.
2. For every 30 minutes you exercise, add 12 oz.

Example: 150lb x 0.5= 75oz

Exercise for an hour= (60min/30min) x 12oz= 24oz

Recommended: 99oz of water

Signs of dehydration include: dry mouth, headache, muscle cramps, dark or strong smelling urine.

Talk to a medical professional if you have questions about your hydration level.
