Your Dog Can Teach You Some New Tricks

We’ve all heard the old adage, “You can’t teach an old dog new tricks.” But when it comes to hydration, your pet already knows the perfect formula: drink water!

Water does more than just quench thirst. It helps with digestion and lubricates internal tissues and joints. When it’s hot or your dog is running around, that leads to more panting, so give him more water; without it, he will be dehydrated and get sick.

The same is true for you. Water makes up more than 60% of your body; some organs are more than 70% water. So, if you’re not drinking enough, your mind and body won’t be functioning efficiently or effectively.

So, follow your dog’s example. Drink the water you need. Set a goal for your daily routine. Most experts recommend 64 ounces and, just like your pet, drink more when it’s hot and when you work out.  If you’re hiking or climbing in high elevations, drink even more to avoid altitude sickness. 

The best way to make sure you’re on the right path is to sip from the “world’s smartest bottle”. HidrateSpark 3 smart water bottle reminds you when to drink, sends a push alert when you forget, and glows when you reach your goal.  It’s a cool way to develop great habits for health and wellness.
