By: Kerry Foreman, Owner and Founder of Muskoka Mornings®
Summer is the perfect time to enjoy the outdoors, but the hot weather also means it’s essential to stay hydrated. Dehydration can lead to a range of issues, from fatigue and headaches to more severe health problems. Maintaining proper hydration is key, and there are plenty of ways to ensure you’re getting enough fluids. Here are some tips to help you stay hydrated this summer, with some ideas on how to use No Yolking™ Dried Egg White Protein Powder to keep your blood sugar levels balanced.
- Drink Plenty of Water – Drink, drink and drink some more! The most obvious one is to stay hydrated and drink plenty of water. You’ll want to aim for at least eight 8-ounce glasses a day which should increase if you spend more time out in the sun or doing physical activity. Make sure to carry a reusable water bottle so you always have water handy.
- Enjoy Hydrating Foods – Incorporate hydrating foods into your diet! Fruits and vegetables with high water content such as watermelon, cucumbers and strawberries are excellent additions to your daily intake. Salads are also a great way to get in those veggies. If you’re on the go, pack up a Summer Mason Jar Salad that’s full of protein. They not only help with hydration but also provide essential vitamins and minerals.
- Refreshing Drinks with No Yolking™ Dried Egg White Protein Powder – When it’s hot out and you don’t feel like being in the kitchen, or eating heavier meals, incorporating No Yolking™ into your diet comes in handy. It’s an excellent way to boost your protein to keep your blood sugar levels balanced and great when added into:
- Protein-Packed Smoothies: Blend No Yolking™ with your favourite fruits, a handful of leafy greens, and some coconut water or almond milk. This combination not only hydrates but provides a good source of protein to keep you energized. Try out our Peach Smoothie.
- Refreshing Lemonade: Mix a scoop of No Yolking™ Dried Egg White Protein Powder into your homemade lemonade. The protein helps stabilize your blood sugar levels, preventing the spikes and crashes that can occur with sugary drinks.
- Iced Herbal Tea: Brew a pot of your favourite herbal tea, let it cool, and add No Yolking™. Use a handheld immersion blender to mix it well. This refreshing drink is perfect for hydration and provides a protein boost.
- Avoid Sugary and Caffeinated Drinks – While it’s tempting to reach for sugary sodas or caffeinated beverages, these can actually dehydrate you further. Instead, opt for water, herbal teas, or drinks made with No Yolking™ Dried Egg White Protein Powder to keep your hydration levels in check without the added sugar.
- Set Reminders to Drink – It’s easy to forget to drink enough water throughout the day. Set reminders on your phone or use a water tracking app to ensure you’re staying on top of your hydration goals.
- Monitor Your Hydration – Pay attention to signs of dehydration such as dark urine, dry mouth, dizziness, or fatigue. If you notice these symptoms, increase your fluid intake immediately.
- Make Hydration Fun – Make hydration more enjoyable by infusing your water with fresh fruits, herbs, or cucumber slices. This can add a burst of flavour without the extra calories or sugar.
Staying hydrated is crucial, especially during the hot summer months. By incorporating No Yolking™ Dried Egg White Protein Powder into your refreshing drinks, you can enjoy the benefits of balanced blood sugar levels while keeping hydrated. Remember, a little effort goes a long way in ensuring you stay healthy and hydrated all summer long.
