Did you know???-- The connection between hunger & thirst

Did you know that your brain can mistake thirst for hunger?

So, if you feel hungry before it's time to eat again, try drinking water.

Hydration
As little as 1-2% loss of your normal water volume can also cause fatigue, headaches, and negative moods in some people. Although experts disagree on exactly how much water is necessary, a well hydrated person has clear to light yellow colored urine.

Unexplained excess thirst or dark colored urine may signal a medical issue. Please consult your healthcare provider in these cases.
