Comment on: "The Utility of Thirst as a Measure of Hydration Status Following Exercise-Induced Dehydration"

Eric D B Goulet. Nutrients. .

Abstract

In their study, Adams et al. [1] attempted to determine whether thirst perception could serve as a reliable marker of hydration status during 3 h of exercise where participants either dehydrated by 3% of their body mass or maintained euhydration through water intake, and following exercise where they either could not drink or were allowed to consume water ad libitum during the first 10 min of a 60 min long recovery period [...].
