Choosing Hydrating Waters Not all water hydrates equally. Waters rich in electrolytes, like mineral and coconut water, can enhance hydration, especially during physical activity.
Practice Advice: Drink electrolyte-enhanced waters during and after intense exercise or in hot climates to replenish lost minerals and maintain hydration.
Scientific Evidence: Studies published in the Journal of the International Society of Sports Nutrition indicate that electrolyte-rich waters improve hydration and recovery after exercise compared to plain water.
