Important Notes for Seniors
Seniors may feel thirst less
The thirst sensation decreases with age, so it's important to drink water regularly even if you don't feel thirsty.
Dehydration is dangerous
Older adults are more prone to dehydration, which can cause confusion, falls, and other serious health issues.
Other fluids count too
Tea, coffee, milk, and soup all contribute to your daily fluid intake, though water is best.
