In this episode of the Foundational Health Podcast, Dr. Kevin Schultz covers the importance of proper hydration, highlighting it as one of the five pillars of Foundational Health. He discusses how staying hydrated not only helps you look and feel better, but also plays a crucial role in your body's ability to heal. With 75% of American adults chronically dehydrated, Dr. Schultz emphasizes the dire consequences of dehydration, including an increased risk of chronic diseases, poor brain function, and even accelerated aging. He shares simple, actionable tips for improving hydration, from drinking half your body weight in ounces of water daily to incorporating electrolyte-rich foods and beverages.

Dr. Schultz also outlines five key strategies for maintaining optimal hydration: drinking water consistently throughout the day, consuming fruits and vegetables, supplementing with electrolytes, exercising to enhance fluid circulation, and avoiding dehydrating drinks like sugary sodas and alcohol. This episode is packed with practical advice to help you enhance your overall health and well-being through better hydration practices.
