Hydration and Spine Health

Staying hydrated is so important for your overall health and wellness, including the health of your spine. Here are some things you should understand about the connection between hydration and spine health:

  • Joint Flexibility: Dehydration can affect the flexibility of your ligaments and muscles that support your spine. This can lead to stiffness, pain, and an increased risk of injury. 
  • Nutrient Transport: Proper hydration is essential for nutrient transport throughout your body. Water helps to deliver the nutrients your spine needs to the spine. 
  • Posture Support: Hydration is essential for maintaining the bones that support your spine and posture. When your muscles are hydrated, it is easier for them to provide more support.
