Understanding Dehydration

Choose a preferred language

Dehydration happens when your body loses more fluid than you take in. You lose fluids through sweating, vomiting, and using the bathroom. Our bodies need water and other fluids in order to work properly. In fact, dehydration can cause very serious symptoms if not treated. So it's important to make sure that you stay hydrated by drinking plenty of water throughout the day.
