Dehydrating Food Items

We often think about what to eat for hydration, but do you know there are some food items that can cause dehydration? Here are seven foods you should avoid in summer. Tap to check!

Chips

Chips can throw off your body’s water balance and make you more dehydrated. It’s better to avoid these salty chips.

White Bread

White bread doesn't have much fiber or nutrients and can upset your stomach, leading to dehydration. Whole grain options are a healthier choice.

Protein Bars

These snacks are popular, but they have a lot of synthetic protein and sodium, which might leave you feeling tired and dehydrated.

Pickles

Pickles are tasty but are loaded with salt, which can make you urinate more and become dehydrated. You can pair them with hydrating foods.

Instant Noodles

These quick meals are also high in salt and can lead to dehydration and an imbalance of electrolytes. Try a low-sodium variety of noodles.

Fried Snacks

Fried snacks often have a lot of fat, which can cause dehydration and upset your stomach. Baked or grilled snacks are a better option for your health.

Caffeinated Drinks

Drinks with caffeine can make you urinate frequently and dehydrate you if you don’t drink enough water.
