Fall is upon us- hydration is especially important in the fall, even though it’s not as hot as summer:
🍂 Dryer Air & Lower Humidity
• Fall air is drier than summer air, which leads to increased water loss through your skin and breathing.
• Heating systems indoors can further dry the air, causing mild dehydration without you noticing.
🏈 Increased Physical Activity
• Fall sports season (football, soccer, cross-country) means sweating still happens, even in cooler weather.
• Sweat loss can be deceptive — you may not feel as thirsty but still lose significant fluids.
🤧 Immune System Support
• Fall is the start of cold & flu season.
• Staying hydrated keeps your mucous membranes moist, which helps trap viruses and bacteria before they enter your body.
☕ More Caffeine & Alcohol Intake
• Pumpkin spice lattes, hot coffee, and tailgate beers are all mild diuretics, which can contribute to fluid loss.
• IV hydration/proper fluid intake can balance these effects and prevent headaches or sluggishness.
🌡 Temperature Swings
• Fluctuating temps (chilly mornings, warm afternoons) can cause your body to work harder to regulate temperature, using up fluid stores.
• Hydration helps maintain steady circulation and energy throughout the day.
