With temperatures predicted to be in the 80’s all week, active Arrowmen need to stay hydrated. Carry a water bottle, and remember to drink several bottles of water between each meal. Water bottles may not be brought into dining halls, but water refill stations are available outside of each dining hall. At meals, drink plenty of water – not just soda, juice, or sports drinks – and eat several servings of fresh fruit. Drink enough water to keep your urine a light, clear yellow color. Early signs of dehydration can include headache, dry mouth, thirst, light-headedness, and fatigue. Avoid dehydration by staying properly hydrated.
You will be active at NOAC – walking, playing sports, dancing, and many other activities that can distract you from recognizing how your body is feeling. Even though you may not be exerting lots of effort all day, you can still be losing water. So avoid the headaches and exhausting, and have a great NOAC experience by staying hydrated!
