Listen to your body, not the hype.

“Drink eight glasses of water a day. You’ll be healthier.” We’ve all heard this same message time and time again, taking it to be fact. But what if it isn’t true? In a world where hydration has become a trend or a sign of purity, The Hydration Myth brings a science-backed look into drinking water, calling out its biggest myths.

As the chief of the Department of Women’s Health at Bassett Healthcare Network and a clinical professor of obstetrics and gynecology, Dr. Badalian weaves science and personal accounts with his patients to call out a culture obsessed with constant hydration. In this book, you’ll learn

• the signs of overhydration,

• how water bottles have become status symbols,

• the hidden dangers of IVs,

• water safety during pregnancy, and

• how to restore balance with your body and listen to its natural signals.

The Hydration Myth is a wake-up call to the beliefs we’ve blindly accepted, asking us to find the way back to trusting our bodies.
