How much water should I drink in Kerala heat?

Short answer

There is no one perfect number for everyone. Heat, sweating, body size, salt intake, activity, pregnancy, breastfeeding and medical conditions all change water needs.

Simple checks

• Pale yellow urine usually suggests reasonable hydration.
• Dark urine, headache and dizziness can signal low fluid intake.
• Heavy sweating may need salt and fluid, not just plain water.
• Kidney, heart or liver conditions need medical advice before increasing fluids.

JoFitness Nutrition note
