During activities of daily living, there are demands placed on the body both cognitively and physically. These demands are multiplied when performing an athletic endeavor. Many studies have demonstrated the negative impact dehydration has on cognitive and muscle functions, independently. The purpose of ...
Examining the effects of hydration status on cognitive function is a relatively new area of research, resulting in part from our increased understanding of hydration's impact on physical performance and advances in the discipline of cognitive neuropsychology. The available research in this area, albeit...
"We wanted to tease out whether exercise and heat stress alone have an impact on your cognitive function and study the effect of dehydration on top of that," said Mindy Millard-Stafford, the study's principal investigator and a professor in Georgia Tech's School of Biological Sciences. "We ...
Cognitive function is impaired after 2% body water (BW) loss, but mild dehydration (D, 锠 1.5% BW loss) may have limited impact on simple cognitive tasks. However, we hypothesized that complex executive function is impaired during mild D. We tested mild D effects on simple and complex ...

Water is needed by every cell in your body to function properly, he explains, and is vital in helping our bodies work through the toxins we all breathe and eat every day. Read on to discover dehydration's effects on your body and tips on how to keep your fluid intake where it needs ...
"We chose to study middle-aged andolder adultsbecause this is the age group where we start to see risk of cognitive decline," Rosinger said. Previous research has raised concerns about the impact of dehydration on cellular health, kidney function, biological acceleration of age, risk of chronic...
Yes, dehydration can significantly impact mental health. When you’re dehydrated, the brain’s ability to function properly is compromised, which can lead to issues like anxiety, mood swings, and even depression. Proper hydration is essential for maintaining stable mental health and cognitive functio...
"Fluids are necessary for almost every function in our body," says sports dietitianAnna Mitchell, RD, CSSD. "When you're mildly dehydrated — say, a 2 percent loss in body water — you'll see a decline in your cognitive function and a reduction in sports performance." ...
Increasing the client’s knowledge level will assist in preventing and managing the problem. Hydration and nutrition are the interventions with the greatest impact on the course of acute diarrhea. Traditional clear fluids are not appropriate for oral rehydration therapy. Many contain excessive concentrati...
