Today we will focus on at least 8 cause of nocturnal dehydration, often linked to bad habits that we can correct, while others we will see how to overcome. One thing we should pay attention to however is the temperature of the water we decide to drink in the morning. Let’s avoid drinking cold water, which as we have seen in the past can cause even serious problems, let’s prefer it instead water at room temperature, some even recommend warm water. But let’s go into details and discover 8 causes of thirst in the morning.
Thirsty in the morning: 8 causes and remedies
Let’s start immediately by seeing the first 3 things that make us wake up very thirsty, linked to bad habits. They are in fact linked to nutrition:
Drink little during the day;Drink alcohol in the evening;Eat very salty things for dinner.
The first cause is very simple to prevent, it would be enough to drink enough water during the day. Nutritionists have always advised us to take at least 2 liters of water per day. Is it difficult for us to drink? Let’s try it flavor the water with aromas such as lemon, it could encourage us to drink more. Drinking alcohol at dinner in itself is not a problem, if we limit its use. However, if we drink too much or exclusively alcohol we will run into the problem of waking up thirsty. To overcome the problem we try to drink alternately, even water, in this way the problem should disappear. The third problem is also easily solved, let’s avoid dining with foods rich in sodium which will make us dehydrated. Instead, let’s try to dine with light and easy-to-digest foods such as vegetables.

Let’s now continue to look at the remaining reasons and find out if there are remedies in this case too.
Anxiety and stress;Sleeping too much;Sleeping with your mouth open;Take dehydrating drugs;High room temperature.
The two primary elements are in fact the antithesis of each other. Usually those who are stressed cannot sleep, this causes an increase in heart rate which creates breathlessness and makes us dehydrated. The remedy would be to look for ways to “slow down” so as to eliminate or at least reduce stress. On the other hand, if we are very lazy and we happen to sleep too many hours, we are looking for new stimuli. Sleeping too much is also not good for us and makes us very thirsty.

If unfortunately due to problems with deviation of the nasal septum, or due to obstruction of the same caused by cold o allergy we sleep with our mouths open, dehydration is a given. However, we can overcome the problem by having a bottle of water at hand or by inserting some humidifiers in the room at night. As far as drugs are concerned, however, we could ask our doctor if it is possible to move their intake throughout the day. Sometimes taking a dehydrating medication in the afternoon instead of the evening is enough to solve the problem. Finally, a room that is too hot makes us sweat and therefore the body will want back the liquids it has lost, let’s avoid therefore to have temperatures too high in the house in winter and we try to keep the well ventilated room in estate.
Conclusions
In conclusion we can say that many of the causes mentioned above are possible to preventalternatively we can get into the habit of having one next to us on the bedside table bottle of water always at hand. Drink small sips of water during the night could bring relief to our feeling of thirst.
