That means when you’re dehydrated, your brain literally shrinks. I’m not kidding. A shriveled brain is not a fun brain. Drink up to keep your thoughts from getting wrinkly.
Another wild one: water makes you less grumpy. Studies show even mild dehydration makes you moody and tired. So next time you’re snapping at your dog, blame the H2O.
Your dog is probably dehydrated too. Don’t forget to fill their bowl.
Okay, back to the weekly gallon count.
If you’re an average, not-too-sweaty human, aim for 3 to 4 gallons a week. That’s about 48 to 64 cups. Sounds impossible until you realize coffee, tea, and watermelon count.
Yes, watermelon is basically pre-chewed water. Eat a slice and call it hydration. You’re welcome.
