You might not have realised there are some very random signs that’s your body’s way of saying “I need water NOW!”
#1 During workout you are not sweating
If we will not drink enough water our bodies can actually stop us from sweating, so not only will we be thirsty, but out bodies won’t cool us down by sweating so the heat just stays TRAPPED INSIDE!
#2 You have bad breath
Saliva has bacteria-fighting properties, Wider explains. If you’re dehydrated, your saliva levels go down and so does your mouth’s ability to fight odor-causing germs. If you notice that you suddenly have bad breath for no reason, try drinking more water regularly. That alone may clear it up.
#3 Your oily skin has dry patches
If you are not having enough water in your body then it directly affects our skin. Just because you’ve got oily skin, you can get dry patches if you’re dehydrated because skin that doesn’t have enough water is lacking in moisture and not oil.
#4 You suddenly have food cravings.
Ever had one of those days where you just can’t and won't stop eating?! Well there’s nothing wrong with your stomach (despite what the people around you may think!), you’re probably just thirsty.
Your liver needs water to function properly. When it doesn’t get it, it signals to your brain that you need fuel, Wider says. Instead of craving water, though, it tends to make you think you’re hungry, causing food cravings.
#5 You are getting sick again and again
Start drinking more! Because every organ in the body relies on water, if you don’t drink enough your cells don’t get the right nutrients and minerals they need. You then get a lack of moisture in your mouth, nose and throat and it’s this that makes you sick.
