The Importance of Body Hydration

  1. Hydrates is important and that starts with drinking water. But there are also all kinds of foods that contain the so important moisture for our body. Furthermore, most creams moisturize, regardless of whether your skin is oily, dry or normal. Almost all of them hydrate. We consist largely of water, so hydration is vital. How do we optimally hydrate our body?

Why moisturize?

  1. Hydration is basically adding water to a particular substance. The body consists of water for 55% in women and 60% in men. The body therefore has a continuous fluid circulation. Take as an example the moment you have exercised. You have sweated during exercise and you have lost a relatively large amount of moisture. This can quickly increase to three quarters of a liter in a one-hour workout. That is the content of a water bottle, which is very handy to have filled with you. After exercise, it is important that you replenish the moisture immediately, but not with ice cold water. If the water is not too cold, it will be absorbed better. This way you regulate the moisture balance in your body again.

Sufficient drinking already starts in the morning

  1. It starts with enough to drink and that starts early in the morning. You have to replenish all the moisture you lost during night hours early in the morning. It is best not to drink cold but lukewarm water. Add a slice of lemon to make it fresh and the lemon also supports liver function. In addition, it has a detoxifying effect, which means that the waste products have to leave the body.

The rest of the day

  1. Try to drink that important one and a half liters of water throughout the day. If you drink coffee or alcohol, always have a glass of water with it. This immediately compensates for the alcohol or caffeine (removes moisture from you). If you want to drink something before going to sleep, which is also good to prevent dehydration during the night, do this half an hour before you get to bed. A small glass of water is sufficient. Having a glass of water next to your bed is fine, but it is more likely that you will wake up during sleep because you have to urinate.

Moisturizing creams and soaps

  1. Cream It is a misconception that moisturizing creams provide the skin with moisture. Moisturizing creams contain all kinds of active ingredients that ensure that the moisture is retained in the skin. These creams bind to the skin. You can use another cream, but always start with the moisturizing cream.

Soap

  1. Besides the moisturizing creams, there are also more and more (natural) moisturizing soaps. Moisturizing is also important in the shower. That starts with a not too hot shower and especially not too long a shower. Hot water can wash away the body's protective oils. Your skin can dry out in this way. Instead, take a short lukewarm shower with a naturally moisturizing soap. Get out of the shower for about five minutes. This is, if you don't need to wash your hair.

Value-added nutrition

  1. There are several nutrients that also have a moisturizing effect. Some of them do even more for you. Some random examples:

Finally

  1. If we don't get moisture, we will eventually die. The standard of about 1.5 liters per day is not an unnecessary luxury. Given the fact that moisture comes to us in several ways, it is actually not even such a task. But taking good care of your body with care, because that's what it actually is, doesn't hurt.
