Most of us actively try to sip water and stay hydrated—and we’re successful, at least until winter sets in. Did you know that when the temperature drops our body naturally dials down our thirst cues making it that much easier to overlook our hydration? In today’s episode, we cover why staying hydrated is important for your mental wellness, and why including electrolytes—specifically Ultima’s electrolytes—in your water is also a must-do. Don’t drop off too early because our guest has a special announcement!
