Your body is a hydro-powered machine, made up largely of water—about 60 percent, to be precise. And if you’re getting your sweat on in the summer heat, you can quickly alter that amount. By the time you feel thirsty, you’re likely already dehydrated—and even mild dehydration can alter how you think and feel.
So it’s important to keep sipping. But it’s not just what you drink, it’s also what you eat. Did you know about 20 percent of your water intake typically comes from food? That’s because fresh fruits and vegetables are full of H20—at least 80 percent, up to the high 90s. So you can crank up the amount of water you get from fresh produce, with juicy strawberries, watermelon, cucumbers, and tomatoes, all bursting with liquid and other benefits.
Being hydrated may help boost your weight-loss efforts, too. Research shows that people who drink more water tend to eat fewer calories overall. One study in Obesity showed that drinking a couple of cups of water before a meal can help you shed pounds. And another study in Appetite suggests that eating a salad before a meal can help you eat less.
So start chopping and dropping! These super simple and refreshing salads feature some of the most hydrating fruits and veggies.
