It can be tough to stay hydrated in the winter. That’s because when it’s cold outside, a big glass of cold water just isn’t very appealing. Plus, when we’re not feeling hot and thirsty, it can be hard to remember we need to drink!

However, with the dry air from indoor heating and prevalence of coughs and colds in winter, it’s super important to get enough water to maintain optimal health. Here are our top tips for keeping hydrated in the colder months. Drink up!

Drink Hot Drinks

If you don’t fancy cold drinks, try hot ones instead. Herbal tea, hot water with lemon, or savory broths are all great hydrators and will keep you feeling cozy. Just don’t rely solely on black tea and coffee for your liquid intake or you might face a caffeine overload!

Carry Your Water Bottle

Even in winter, carry your water bottle with you at all times to encourage yourself to drink throughout the day. You won’t want to schlep a full, heavy bottle around all day, which means it’s great motivation to drink up and lighten your load!

Set Alarms

If you are getting to the end of the day and realizing you haven’t been drinking, it’s time to set some alarms. Set alarms on your phone every couple of hours with notes reminding you to drink. Keep these on for a few weeks until drinking water regularly becomes embedded into your routine.

It’s been a tough week, but the weekend is finally here. Going out with friends means that a drink or two will be involved, but you’re trying to be healthy, so what do you do?

Firstly, it’s important to remember that having the occasional drink while leading a healthy lifestyle is totally acceptable. There are even some alcohols that could be considered “healthier” than others as they are gentler on your gut and blood sugar, and some do actually have health benefits. 

Red Wine

Thanks to its inclusion of antioxidants and polyphenols, red wine is actually good for both your brain and heart. Having the odd glass of Merlot or Cabinet Sauvignon can potentially lower your risk of cardiovascular disease. We’ll say cheers to that!

Tequila

If you are a fan of agave-based liquor, you’ll be pleased to know that it actually contains fewer calories and less sugar than most alcohols, making it the best choice to keep your blood sugar in balance.

Hard Kombucha

Hard kombucha is the alcoholic cousin of regular kombucha that has been fermented for longer, creating a higher ABV. But just like it’s non-alcoholic relative, both are rich in probiotics which improve gut health and aids in digestion.
