Did you know as we age, the risk of dehydration generally increases. The body’s ability to conserve water reduces, and the sense of thirst often diminishes. Medications or medical conditions may also affect an individual’s ability to retain fluids.
 
As the temperature rises in the summer, so does our need to ensure we are sufficiently consuming the fluids we need. If you’re thirsty, you’re already mildly dehydrated. Drink plenty of fluids throughout the day, including water, juice, and soups. Plus, water doesn’t have to come from a glass. Try to eat fruits and vegetables high in water, such as apples, cucumbers, grapes, and watermelon.
