It often happens during the summer that the hair naturally bleaches due to chlorine from swimming pools, salt water from the sea and, above all, the sun's rays, which cause melanin degradation. 

However, this natural 'discolouring' side effect could lead to dry, moisture-deprived hair that does not look good.

When one speaks of dehydration, one is dealing with a state in which the body loses more fluid than it takes in.

In fact, the body continuously loses fluids through a series of physiological activities ranging from sweating to urination, from faeces to breathing. Not to mention other episodes (such as vomiting and diarrhoea) that can cause further fluid losses. Losses that must obviously be supplemented.

In addition to these physiological conditions, dehydration can also be caused by pathologies and generally manifests itself through specific symptoms. Let's see which ones. (Source: humanitas.it)

Weight gain is basically the difference between the calories assimilated through food and the calories spent during the day through physical activity, metabolism and other factors. If you are on a low-calorie diet, and you notice an increase in weight, there could be various reasons.

From a change in metabolism to exercise, this is why even those on a strict diet may find themselves gaining weight.
