DOCTOR RIVER WHAT'S UP DOC?
It is estimated that 75% of the US population is dehydrated, so imagine how dehydrated kayakers are. You might keep a water bottle handy, but are you drinking it? Kayakers tend to drink less than your average athlete by virtue of the fact that they are on the water and may not perceive their thirst or hydration status as easily.
WHAT IS DEHYDRATION AND HOW DOES IT HAPPEN?
Dehydration occurs when you lose more fluids than you take in.
