This summer safety month, we're highlighting ways to stay hydrated and be #SafeInTheSun. Follow these three tips to make sure you're not faced with dehydration. 1.) Don't wait to Hydrate! - Drink water periodically, not just when you're thirsty. Thirst is the first sign of slight dehydration. 2.) Don't dehydrate! - Coffee, caffeinated beverages, and alcohol are all dehydrating beverages. If water tastes too bland for you, add electrolyte-rich flavoring. 3.) Hydrate while eating! - Add foods to your diet that have a high water content. Fruits and vegetables such as: watermelon, cantaloupe, strawberries, cucumbers, tomatoes, and leafy greens are full of nutrients and water. Keep your energy up and hydrate while you do it! Know the signs and symptoms of early dehydration to stay safe on site!
