You ever find yourself waking up hour on hour just to pee? I thought I was being responsible, hydrating like a champ with my 40 oz steel insulated mug. But according to Dr. Serena, my overachieving bladder has a name for its antics—Nocturia.
Nocturia is when you wake up multiple times a night to urinate. It’s not just annoying—it disrupts sleep, leaving you groggy and over it by morning. Turns out, drinking a small lake's worth of water too late in the day can be a culprit. Who knew?
Dr. Serena’s advice? Ease up on the hydration hustle in the evening. Simple, right? But when you’ve built a habit of sipping nonstop, scaling back feels like a challenge. I might have to start rationing my sips or finding a good cut-off time before bed.
Moral of the story: Sometimes, less is more—especially when it comes to water at the latte of the day.
