Healthy Hydration Tips For The Festive Season

It's easy to lose discipline over Christmas and drink one too many glasses of fizz. Still, there's no reason why you can't enjoy the festivities while drinking mindfully. Read on for our best holiday hydration tips.

Don’t mistake hunger for thirst (there’s a difference)

Salty foods, sugary desserts, and late-night tipples… hydration has never been more important than during the festivities. You might be surprised to know that what feels like  hunger can actually be a sign of thirst. In fact, 37% of us mistake thirst for hunger because we don’t always realise what our bodies are signalling.

Balance alcohol with hydration

According to Mayo Clinic, too much alcohol can weaken the immune system and increase your chances of falling ill. So, what can you do to prevent it? Begin by balancing your alcohol intake a vitamin-rich beverage, such as iPRO Hydrate. Enriched with vitamin C, iPRO Hydrate is an excellent way to aid your immune system during the holidays.

Avoid caffeine the morning after an evening of drinking

Fatigue, weakness, and headache: classic hangover symptoms typically cured by a hot steaming cup of coffee… or not. Dehydration exacerbates a hangover and adding a diuretic drink such as coffee to the mix is cautioned against. Moreover, coffee can aggravate headaches by narrowing the blood vessel in the brain. So, maybe think twice about caffeine after an evening of drinking.

Looking for something non-alcoholic? Try a mocktail

If you’re planning on enjoying some festive tipples this Christmas, have a glass of water on hand to keep hydrated. And if you’re abstaining from alcohol altogether, why not embody the festive spirit with a healthy twist on some mocktails with iPRO Hydrate? Our selection of fruity and refreshing flavours means there’s something for everyone.

Keep in mind this season…

A dehydrating trio of sugar, salt, and alcohol means getting enough hydration is even more important. If there’s too much fizz and not enough water going on, why not keep a case of iPRO Hydrate in the fridge for when you need a refreshment? It’s the perfect hangover cure that’ll quickly rehydrate and it’ll relieve feelings of grogginess.
