10 signs you're not drinking enough water

Do you sleep well but feel exhausted first thing in the morning? Water plays a role in transporting nutrients and producing energy. A lack of it forces the body to compensate… and this exacerbates fatigue.

  • Dry or dull skin

The skin often reflects what's happening inside. Tightness, lack of radiance, or a feeling of discomfort can be linked to insufficient hydration, even with a good cream.

  • Dark urine

This is one of the simplest indicators: the lighter the color, the better. A dark shade generally means the body is trying to conserve available water.

Unusual irritability
