Dehydration is a serious condition that can lead to problems most of us would like to avoid. Unfortunately, an estimated 17%-28% of U.S. adults experience dehydration from time to time. Are you among them?

We imagine some people run the risk of dehydration just because they forget to drink water. Others might be out in the hot sun for hours without taking regular hydration breaks. But we have to imagine there are still others who don't drink enough water because they don't like the taste of their tap water. We get it. That is why we offer fresh water delivery.

All Water Has a Taste

You might think that water doesn't have a taste, especially if your tap water doesn't taste bad, but the taste is still there. It may be subtle, strong, or somewhere in between. Regardless, water's taste is a direct result of what is in it.

Tap water is typically municipal water that contains a certain number of chemicals utilized during the purification process. None of those chemicals are at dangerously high levels. Yet they still impact flavor. For example, some people can taste chlorine in their water.

If you are on a well, the taste of your water is a direct result of soil on your property. Your water could be especially hard to the point of tasting a bit like sulfur. Sulfur tastes and smells like rotten eggs.

Chronic Dehydration and Its Symptoms

Chronic dehydration is exactly what its name implies: a persistent state of being dehydrated. A chronically dehydrated person doesn't drink enough water. There have been numbers circulating for years suggesting that up to 75% of American adults are chronically dehydrated. But there is little supporting evidence in scientific literature. Nonetheless, chronic dehydration is a real condition.

Here are the symptoms:

• Dry or flaky skin

• Persistent fatigue

• Frequent headaches

• Frequent constipation

• Routinely dry mouth and eyes

Chronic dehydration is normally the result of not drinking enough. But it can be exacerbated in warm weather because of perspiration. The more you perspire, the more water your body needs to stay healthy. That's why it's so important to hydrate during the summer months.
