SC115 Unit 2 Discussion Are You At Risk For Dehydration?
Title: Are You At Risk For Dehydration?
Without food you could likely survive for days if not weeks. However, without water, you would only survive for a matter of days. Although water does not provide people with energy or calories as food does, it is essential to life and is often overlooked. Think about how much water you may or may not consume during an average day – is it enough? What do you drink? Water? Coffee? Juice? Soda?
Discuss the following in your initial post:
- What are your daily fluid needs?
- Do you meet your fluid needs on a daily basis?
- What factors influence the amount of fluid you need?
- Is it possible to meet your fluid needs without drinking water? Explain why or why not.
- How does the softness or hardness of water affect its healthfulness?
- What are the pros and cons of consuming bottled water?
