Ah, summer. Finally some time to get outdoors for some fresh air! But beware–with all that activity comes a trade-off. Your body can lose water due to perspiration. Are you getting enough liquids to make up for the loss? Here are a few, easy ways to stay hydrated:

• Fruits are an excellent source for water. Watermelon is 90% water, so it ranks highest on the list. Oranges, grapefruit, and melons like cantaloupe and honeydew are also strong contenders.
• Vegetables, though not as full of water as fruit, can also provide a nutrient-rich water source. Stick with celery, cucumbers, tomatoes, green peppers, and Romaine lettuce.
• Bored with plain water? You have options! Milk,  juices and sports drinks are good options. Dress up plain water with some fruit or herbs.
• Last, be sure not to sabotage your efforts by excessive alcohol consumption. You should try to limit your intake, but if you are going to raise a glass, aim for at least a one-to-one ratio with water.
