Eat These Foods For Hydration

Park City Utah is full of bikers, hikers, climbers, boaters, skiers, snowboarders, dog walkers, just about every outdoor activity - even going out looking at real estate in Park City can make you thirsty - here's how to combat dehydration.


Eat These Foods For Hydration

There are many benefits to staying fully hydrated.  Hydration can boost our energy levels when you get hot and give your skin a youthful glow.  If you’re tired of drinking more and more water to stay hydrated, try adding these foods to your diet:

¨       Citrus fruit: Grapefruit and oranges have antioxidants and vitamin C to keep you healthy.  Eat slices or as fresh juice.

¨       Watermelon:  It’s hyper-hydrating because it’s almost all water.  But it also contains nutrients like magnesium, calcium, and potassium.

¨       Cucumber:  This veggie is primarily water and can be sliced and added to a salad to give it a crisp, refreshing taste.  It’s also packed with the anti-inflammatory benefit of vitamin C and lignan.

¨       Fresh coconut:  Water from the inside of a young coconut is a staple for hydration in many countries.  It can replace the electrolytes in your body while also offering a rich store of vitamins and minerals.
