Hydration and cognition: a critical review and recommendations for future research.
The limited literature on the effects of dehydration on human cognitive function is contradictory and inconsistent. Although it has been suggested that decrements in cognitive performance are present in the range of a 2 to [...]
MATERNAL HYDRATION INCREASES AMNIOTIC FLUID INDEX IN WOMEN WITH NORMAL AMNIOTIC FLUID.
OBJECTIVE: To test the hypothesis that maternal oral hydration would increase the amniotic fluid (AF) index in pregnancies with normal AF. METHODS: Forty women with a normal AF index (7.0-24.0 cm) were randomized to either [...]
Drink composition, voluntary drinking, and fluid balance in exercising, trained, heat-acclimatized boys.
This study examined the effects of beverage composition on the voluntary drinking pattern, body fluid balance, and thermoregulation of heat-acclimatized trained boys exercising intermittently in outdoor conditions (wet bulb globe temperature 30.4 +/- 1.0 degreesC). [...]
Voluntary drinking and hydration in trained, heat-acclimatized girls exercising in a hot and humid climate.
This study examined the effects of beverage composition on the voluntary drinking pattern, body fluid balance and body temperature responses of heat-acclimatized trained girls exercising intermittently in outdoor conditions (WBGT = 30.9 +/- 0.2 degrees [...]
