Dehydration And The Elderly
Those over 65 years of age are aware of the changes that take place in our body as we age. Our eyesight gets poor, our hearing becomes less sensitive, our muscles lose their firmness, we get
tired more easily, our memory is not as good as it once was. However, there is one change that is not obvious, and it occurs without any noticeable outwards signs – this is what makes it dangerous,
especially during summer. When the heat causes us to sweat more, and our body’s water supply becomes depleted.
