Although adequate hydration is essential for optimal brain function, research addressing relationships between hydration status and human behavior and cognitive function is limited. The few published studies in this area are inconclusive and contradictory. The impact of variations in hydration status, which...
this mineral-rich approach to hydration can be profoundly beneficial. It’s not just about quenching thirst; it’s about providing your body with the foundational elements it needs for everything from maintaining joint lubrication and flexibility to supporting cognitive function and ensuring sustained ...
Hydration plays a foundational role in children’s health, affecting everything from energy levels and cognitive function to physical performance and overall well-being. As a professional basketball player and Nutrition Educator, I’ve studied hydration science in depth—not just for peak athletic perf...

were of interest, and studies of extreme hydration conditions (eg, >8%body weight loss, water intoxication) were excluded. Theadverse effectsof these extreme conditions on cognitive function are widely acknowledged, despite limited research on extreme conditions with the topic of hydration research.23...
When athletes exercise, they lose fluids through sweat. If they do not replace these fluids, they can become dehydrated, which can lead to a variety of negative effects on their performance. Dehydration can cause muscle cramps, fatigue, reduced endurance, and impaired cognitive function. It can ...
Researchers at Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University studied the effects of water balance and cognitive function. Theydiscoveredthat mild dehydration, as little as losing 1 percent to 2 percent of body water, can impair cognitive performance. ...
Being even slightly dehydrated can have an impact on our cognitive function and cause brain fog. Recent studies have shown that inulin one of our active ingredients actually helps to reduce fat around the internal organs. This fat known as visceral is much more dangerous and difficult to lose ...
Preventing both dehydration and overhydration can decrease the risk of health complications. Reduced risk of falls and fractures Dehydration increases fall risk in the elderly by impairing cognitive function and coordination. Studies show a strong correlation between dehydration and falls in older adults....
