Why do Humans get dehydrated so quickly?

660 viewsBiologyOther

Been seeing that you should keep drinking until your pee is clear, but its quite astounding how quickly the pee turns dark. Like just 4h of no water or eating a meal will turn it dark. If water is needed so often how do people of the past (who probably don’t have that frequent access to water) even live?

A moderate level of dehydration isn’t going to kill anyone, at least not quickly. Were our ancient ancestors living with suboptimal hydration levels between times they could get to a water source? Perhaps. But you don’t need things to be perfect to live.
