Are you feeling all stressed out and feel like you need to explode?
Grab a cup of refreshing water before making any rash decisions and you may find that the stress is sipped away!
Do you think that sounds way too easy to be true? “Studies have shown that being just half a liter dehydrated can increase your cortisol levels,” says Amanda Carlson, RD, director of performance
Cortisol is one of the hormones which causes stress. Staying well hydrated help keeps Cortisol down which helps lower overall stress. When your body is dehydrated of the water it needs, you are literally putting your body under stress and the emotions that you feel is your body responding to that and telling you something!
Of course being hydrated won’t make your real world problems disappear but we all don’t need more stress in this stressful world don’t we?
