Fluid Replacement how important is it?
Did you know that when you breathe from a scuba tank that the air taken into the lungs that nearly twice the normal amount of water is lost from your body. Diuretics contribute to the pre-dive dehydration, such as coffee, tea or alcohol. Divers must take into consideration some additional concerns for fluid loss and replacement. So the big question is how do I know when I need it. A good indication is if you are not urinating or your urine is dark yellow then yes, drink fluids. Dehydration also plays a role with increasing the risk of hyporthermia, Why is this? It reduces the volume of blood available for circulation to the skin. Dehydration also increases the risk of Decompression Sickness as a result of inadequate blood flow to the muscles and tissues. Waters and juices are the preferred fluid replacement of choice by most, others have there own opinion and results.
