Chronic dehydration
Other symptoms:
- A constant desire to eat something sweet;
- Difficulties falling asleep, superficial sleep;
- Dizziness, headaches;
- Dry mouth, unpleasant odor.
To test your body for dehydration, pinch the skin on the outer side of your wrist with two fingers, pull it half a centimeter, and then release. The skin should completely smooth and return to its original state in 1-2 seconds.
You can get rid of chronic dehydration by increasing the amount of consumed liquid (from 1.5 to 2.5 liters (50 to 67 fl.oz), depending on your weight).

If constant fatigue and other symptoms don’t disappear after several weeks, don’t waste your time – consult a doctor because the success of any treatment depends on how early it was started.
