Summer is coming…
and some of y’all are already running around dehydrated. 😩
Dr. P Says:
Feeling dizzy, weak, tired, or lightheaded is NOT always “just being busy.”
At Outlier Health & Wellness, patients throughout Queens and New York City often come in during warmer months complaining about:
🚩 Dizziness
🚩 Fatigue
🚩 Headaches
🚩 Muscle cramps
🚩 Dry mouth
🚩 Feeling faint
🚩 Confusion
🚩 Weakness
…and many times dehydration is playing a role.
Dr. P Says:
Water matters more than people think.
Especially for:
✔️ Seniors
✔️ Patients with high blood pressure
✔️ Diabetics
✔️ Patients taking diuretics (“water pills”)
✔️ People working outdoors
✔️ People constantly drinking caffeine or alcohol
Heat + dehydration can quickly become dangerous.
Signs you may be dehydrated:
🚩 Dark urine
🚩 Dry lips or mouth
🚩 Feeling dizzy standing up
🚩 Rapid heartbeat
🚩 Extreme fatigue
🚩 Headaches
And beloved…
iced coffee is NOT the same thing as drinking water all day. 😂
Dr. P Says:
Please hydrate BEFORE your body forces you to slow down.
