💧Hydration & Hormones in Midlife: Why Water Matters More Than You Think
Welcome! I'm Kirsty from Strength & Bloom Fitness, and in today’s video — part of the #TeamWater campaign led by the creators of Team Trees and Team Seas — we're diving into the science of hydration for midlife women.
💡 Did you know that hormonal changes in perimenopause and menopause affect how your body retains water, regulates temperature, and processes thirst? Dehydration can worsen fatigue, brain fog, joint aches, and even hot flashes. This video breaks down:
✅ How estrogen and progesterone affect hydration
✅ What water *actually* does inside your body
✅ How much you need (and why)
✅ The impact on exercise and recovery in menopause
✅ Why clean water access matters globally — and what #TeamWater is doing about it
---
🌍 Global Water Facts (Sources: WHO, UNICEF, WaterAid)
- 703 million people lack access to clean water
- Over 2 billion don’t have safely managed water services
- Women and girls spend ~200 million hours every day collecting water
👉 Join me and thousands of other creators as we raise awareness for clean water access, one video at a time.
