The heat’s on, you're drinking plenty of water … yet you're still wiped out. Even if your hydration habits are spot on, you might still be dehydrated. Here’s why and what to do about it.  

What’s missing for proper hydration? 

Electrolytes. Especially magnesium. Magnesium helps your cells absorb, regulate and retain water. Without it, hydration can’t happen properly – no matter how much you drink.  

Is this common? 

Very. Over 75% of Brits drink less than 1 litre of water a day, and around 12% of GP visits for fatigue are linked to dehydration, often misdiagnosed as stress, burnout, or poor sleep.

How can I stay properly hydrated? 

Hydration isn’t just about quantity – it’s about quality. Magnesium ensures water reaches your cells and stays there. Without it, your body’s essentially letting water pass through.  

What are the signs of dehydration, even if I drink water?  

You might be dehydrated without realising it, especially if you notice: 

  • Low energy or tiredness 
  • Brain fog or frequent headaches 
  • Dry skin, cramps, irritability 
  • Dizziness or feeling faint 

These are classic signs your cells are running low on essential minerals. 

Cells and hydration

What can magnesium do for hydration?  

Magnesium is the multitasker of the mineral world. It:  

  • Regulates how water moves in and out of your cells 
  • Supports your nervous system 
  • Eases muscle cramps 
  • Improves sleep quality 

Can magnesium replace other electrolytes? 

Not completely, but it is a strong leader in the hydration lineup. While it doesn’t replace sodium or potassium, magnesium enhances your hydration routine, especially when paired with good water intake or other electrolyte support.
