Headline: UNCAPTIONED: These Foods Can Help to Keep You Hydrated
Caption: These Foods Can Help to Keep You Hydrated. Medical experts say that there are many misconceptions about how much water we should drink daily. "There's really no data behind the eight glasses of water a day thing." While drinking water is rarely a bad choice, foods such as fruits and vegetables are great options to help you stay hydrated. Specifically, strawberries, grapes, oranges, celery and cucumbers are chock-full of water and are great hydration choices. "We think that we need to drink a lot of water all the time because we hear that all the time." "Your body doesn't care where hydration comes from, it just needs fluid." In addition, most beverages, even some caffeinated beverages, will help to keep you hydrated. "You can achieve, and exceed, your daily fluid requirements through the ingestion of beverages and high moisture foods without drinking a single glass of plain water.", Dr. Tamara Hew-Butler, Wayne State University, via 'The New York Times'. Ultimately, doctors suggest the amount of water we should drink is specific to every person. "When it comes to the amount of water you need, it's like Goldilocks and the Three Bears." "I think the 'drink when you're thirsty rule' is one that's hard to argue against.", Dr. Dan Negoianu, University of Pennsylvania, via 'The New York Times’.
