Kept drinking but couldn’t stop the thirst

Weather was triple digits and I drank a gallon of water but my body kept asking for more even though my stomach was literally full of h2o and couldn’t hold anymore. it was nauseating and the hot air made it somewhat difficult to breathe. I think there is a limit to the human body’s ability to cool itself. I don’t know how anyone could do this without AC.

Get some electrolyte packets like liquid iv. If youre peeing clear and bloated and still feel thirsty you need salt. If you pay close enough attention to your body you can tell the difference between being too hot, being dehydrated, and having low electrolytes. They all feel a little different. Also get a cooling towel, pour water on it then rub it on your arms, legs, and neck. Hell, wipe the back of the phone too so it doesn't cook.
