Aging Better
The older we get, the greater the odds our brains will forget to inform us that we’re thirsty. This is why it’s so important that we drink a sufficient amount of water every day, whether we feel thirsty or not. By making Brita® water a habit now you are creating a healthier future.
Aging well begins
with better water.
As you get older you can experience significant benefits by drinking plenty of water:
- May help prevent kidney stones
- May help ease constipation
- May help improve the condition of your skin
- May help improve mental sharpness
- Aids in digestion
- May help circulation
Keep drinking water. It’s important to know that a lack of thirst sensitivity isn’t the only thing that differentiates seniors from younger adults when it comes to dehydration. As you age, you may decrease your water intake because of fear of urinary incontinence, while others experience mild nephrogenic diabetes insipitus -- a type of diabetes that’s common among the elderly. Nephrogenic diabetes insipitus can cause dehydration.
Symptoms of dehydration:
- Dry, inelastic skin
- Confusion
- Fatigue
- Headaches
- Dry mouth
- Thirst
