The elixir of life is water. Water is essential for human survival since it "directly impacts the body's blood circulation, body temperature, digestion, nutrition transfer, and other biochemical responses," according to Dr. Manjit Kumar, MD, Apollo Multi Speciality Hospital in Kolkata.

However, it's easy to lose track of how much water you're drinking due to a demanding work schedule. You've come to the correct place if you've been feeling dehydrated and want to increase your hydration levels.

"There is no one-size-fits-all formula for daily water intake," says Dr. Kumar. The amount of water you should drink each day is determined by several factors, including your body, health conditions, medications, and other considerations."

As a result, here are four expert-approved methods for staying hydrated at all times. Take a look at them below:

1. Carry a water bottle

 Carry a reusable water bottle with you everywhere you go. Having a water bottle on you at all times will ensure that you never run out of water. This will         also allow you to keep track of how much water you use on a daily basis. A sustainable choice is always a reusable water bottle.

2. Use a hydration app on your phone

If you find it difficult to keep track of your water intake on a regular basis, consider downloading a hydration app for your phone that will calculate how much water you require. It's wonderful for folks who have interesting work that requires them to sit at their desk for long periods of time — just listen for the alarm and drink.

3. Detox water

Plain water, which is then fortified with sliced fruits and vegetables, herbs, makes for a refreshing beverage. Choose seasonal produce to keep bringing variation to your detox water recipes. “Citrus fruits, berries and herbs such as ginger will make your beverages delicious”, suggested Dr Kumar.

4. Opt for fresh fruit juices, smoothies and soups

You can hydrate yourself in ways other than drinking water! If you don't enjoy drinking plain water, there are plenty of alternatives. To stay full and hydrated, choose fresh fruit and vegetable juices, tender coconut water, smoothies, and hearty soups.
