Hydrate Before You Caffeinate

After 6-8 hours of sleep, your body is mildly dehydrated. Reaching for coffee or tea first can be dehydrating due to their mild diuretic effect. Starting your day with a large glass of water (room temperature or warm is gentle on the stomach) kickstarts your metabolism, aids digestion, helps flush toxins, and improves cognitive function. It’s a simple habit that ensures you begin your hydration goals on the right foot, making your subsequent caffeine intake more effective and balanced.
