Dear MEL Topic Readers,
Checking your urine plays a key role in your daily hydration habits
Water makes up about 60% of the adult body's weight. It is the main
component of most cells, organs, and tissues, and is vital for functions like
regulating body temperature, transporting nutrients, and lubricating
joints. Water works in conjunction with electrolytes, such as sodium,
calcium, and magnesium. Together, they help your body functions, your nerves
fire, and your blood pressure stay regulated. When you are dehydrated or
overhydrated without enough sodium, your body needs to work harder to keep
these functions balanced. How much water you need to take depends on your body
size, activity level, and the temperature and humidity you’re in. One easy way
to check the hydration level is by checking your urine. The ideal color is pale yellow. If it's
darker like the first pee of the morning, you need to take more water. If the
color is lighter, you’re hydrated more than enough. Now, consult with your
urine about how hydrated you are,
Read the article and learn how essential your hydration level is to
your body and health. https://edition.cnn.com/2025/09/30/health/how-much-water-to-drink-wellness
