Roughly 55% to about 78% of your body is made of water. When your body is low on fluids, it can create a chain reaction of events that may lead to overall discomfort. Dehydration occurs when you don’t drink enough fluids, or when you lose water quickly. Sweating, vomiting and/or diarrhea can cause you to lose fluids rapidly. Certain medications such as diuretics can also result in increased urination and ultimately dehydration. When your  body is dehydrated, your brain (73% water) and heart (73% water) can’t function as optimally as it would if it were properly hydrated. Dehydration may lead to confusion, anxiety, headache, fatigue, muscle cramps, constipation, high heart rate, and decreased kidney function.
