Is your back hurting because it’s dry?

One of the main problems that we experience throughout our life and one that almost all of us suffer from is dehydration. This is something that typically comes on whenever we are young and by the time we reach our teenage years, we have effectively learn how to ignore the symptoms of dehydration. As we continue to get more dehydrated throughout our life our body begins to send stronger signals, such as back pain. If you are experiencing back pain because you are dehydrated, there is really only one way for you to be able to cure it, rehydration.

In order to rehydrate your body properly, you’re going to need to do more than simply drink water. First of all, we all tend to drink things that are dehydrating in one way or another. For example, many of us start the day off with a number of cups of coffee so we are starting the day off in a super state of dehydration. Sugary sodas, sports drinks and a number of other things that we tend to drink throughout the day can also have the same effect. It is important for us to quit drinking these and start drinking more water to the best of our ability. If you do have to have a cup of coffee during the day, compensate by drinking an additional cup of water.

Throughout the day, you need to make sure you’re drinking half of your body weight in ounces of water. For example, a 250 pound man would have to drink 125 ounces of water every day. If you exercise regularly, you’re going to have to drink more than that. You also need to make sure that you are taking natural sea salt every time you drink water in order for you to be able to retain it long enough to hydrate you. This will also keep you from having to go to the bathroom so often, a problem that many of us who start to hydrate ourselves experience.

As your body becomes hydrated you are going to begin to notice differences in the way that you feel. This is not only true physically but it may also be true mentally. Any inconvenience of drinking this much water is going to be overshadowed by the new way that you are feeling. Give it a try for yourself, you would be surprised with how well it works.
