Your low energy might not be a caffeine problem — it could be a hydration one.

If you're constantly feeling sluggish, bloated, foggy, or just “off”, it might be time to stop blaming your sleep or stress — and start looking at your hydration habits.

Most women are chronically under-hydrated. Not dehydrated in the emergency-room sense, but just low enough for it to mess with your energy, metabolism, focus, and even mood — every single day.

The fix? It's not just drinking more water. It's hydrating smarter with electrolytes.

Why Hydration = Energy (Especially for Women)

Your body is made of 60% water, and every single cell — including the ones responsible for creating energy — depends on proper hydration to function.

Here’s what happens when hydration drops just a little:

• Your blood thickens → less oxygen to muscles and brain
• Electrolytes drop → nerve and muscle function slows
• Digestion slows → you feel heavy, bloated, or constipated
• Cortisol rises → hello, fatigue and irritability

Women also experience fluid shifts throughout the month due to hormonal changes — which makes proper hydration even more essential during your cycle.

Why Electrolytes Matter

Water is only half the equation. Without electrolytes — sodium, potassium, magnesium — your body can’t actually use the water you drink.
