Now is the high time to let go of any coffee intake guilt you have. Lifestyle wise, both young and adults alike are enjoying the aroma and refreshing taste of a cup of coffee whilst on move or at work. The myth that coffee is to cause dehydration remains to be myth, as a growing number of studies rule out coffee's dehydrating effect.
No need to kick of the habit, I shall say. For what has been said for years that it is so important to drink extra fluids with your coffee intake because coffee has been known to cause dehydration, is no longer true.It is recommended to drink around eight glasses of water a day, and coffee is no longer being seen as an enemy of that, but you are instead able to count your coffee beverages in the total tally. A study, conducted in 2007, looked at fluid balance, hydration and exercise in the heat, came to a conclusion that if you have no more than 300 mg to 400 mg of caffeine, there is no dehydration effect, either with exercise or at rest.
So go ahead, dose off, enjoy that distinct high that coffee gives you. For your cup of heaven would also be your hydration buddy from now on.
