How to Stay Hydrated (The Smart Way)

How to Stay Hydrated (The Smart Way)

Drinking water is the first step—but if you’re sweating more than usual or spending hours outdoors, plain water may not be enough. Here are a few tips to stay on top of hydration: 

 
 

  • Add natural electrolytes: Coconut water, sea salt, lemon juice, and a pinch of mineral-rich salt can help balance fluids. 

  • Eat water-rich foods: Think cucumbers, watermelon, strawberries, oranges, and leafy greens. These hydrating foods also come packed with electrolytes and antioxidants. 

  • Avoid sugary sports drinks: While convenient, many store-bought electrolyte drinks are loaded with sugar and artificial ingredients. Opt for natural alternatives or make your own! 

 

Boost Your Hydration with Organika 

For an easy, no-fuss way to replenish electrolytes, we love Organika’s Electrolyte Powder. It’s made with clean, functional ingredients like sea salt, potassium, magnesium, and calcium—with no added sugars, artificial sweeteners, or dyes. Just mix a scoop into your water for a refreshing, lightly flavoured drink that supports hydration, energy, and muscle recovery. Available in several delicious flavours, it’s perfect for post-workout, long walks, or those hot days when water alone just doesn’t cut it. And the best part? It’s Canadian-made and easy to incorporate into your daily routine.
