Episode Summary

If you’re struggling to conceive, if you’re being proactive about your fertility, or if you’re wondering whether drinking more water is enough, this episode is for you. This is part three of my foundations series, following sleep, nutrition and digestion. I explain why hydration is more than drinking water and how the type of water, its minerals, and the foods you eat all play a part. We cover signs of poor hydration, including dry skin, constipation, and brain fog, and the urine and blood testing I look at. I share my rules for clean water, why spring water matters, how to add minerals simply, and how to choose and care for your water bottle. You’ll leave this episode knowing how to hydrate in a way your body can actually absorb.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• Hydration is more than drinking water. The type of water, its minerals and the foods you eat all count.
• Dry skin, constipation, brain fog and the afternoon slump can be signs of poor hydration.
• Drink clean water that contains minerals, such as spring water, since water without minerals tends to pass right through.
• A pinch of salt, lemon or cucumber is a simple way to add minerals to your water.
• Water-rich fruits and veggies and decaf teas also count toward your hydration.
• Drink through the day, go easy on liquids before bed, and wash your stainless steel bottle often.
