For Thursday’s experiment, Vanda chose sports drinks, popular among his teammates. He drank them before and after school and during his basketball practice. While he felt hydrated and enjoyed the taste, he noticed he was a bit more jittery than usual, and the drinks seemed to make him thirstier. Lesson Learned: Sports drinks can help with hydration but watch out for added sugars and artificial ingredients that might do more harm than good. Friday: The Ultimate Hydration Mix On the last day of his hydration exploration, Vanda decided to mix it up: he started his day with water, had a small glass of juice with lunch for a sweet treat, and after consulting his coach, had a diluted sports drink after practice to replenish electrolytes. This combination kept him well-hydrated without any downsides, giving him sustained energy throughout the day and evening. Conclusion: Hydration Harmony Vanda learned that while there are many hydrating options available, nothing beats water for regular, all-day hydration. He also realized the importance of balancing his drink choices to suit his activity level and personal health needs. He shared these insights in a blog post titled "Hydration Nation," which included tips on how to stay hydrated and why it’s crucial for both mental and physical performance.
