Dehydration can be caused by fluid loss (through vomiting, diarrhea or excessive urination), inadequate intake, or a combination of both. The most common cause of dehydration in infants and children is acute gastroenteritis with its associated vomiting and diarrhea.

One should always store coffee beans in a glass, air tight container. Air is coffee's principle enemy. Glass is best because it doesn't retain the odors of the beans or the oils, which could contaminate future beans stored in the same container.

It is quite easy to understand that colonic irrigation can result in dehydration and electrolyte imbalance because of the constant washing away of minerals in 5 gallons of water.

They have a relatively greater skin area, so sweat more to keep cool. The elderly will often reduce fluid intake after lunchtime to avoid getting out of bed during the night. The sensation of thirst is often also reduced in elderly people, so they may not always drink enough to replace normal fluid losses.

In addition to the normal amount of absorption taking place in the colon, the body absorbs extra water as needed at a rate the body sets.
