Because it’s not what you eat but the way that you eat it it is important to understand that the benefits of knowing why eating while moving can be bad for you? can be applied to more than just moving around. Exercise is is just one situation where dehydration is likely.

Being aware of all these situations and activities where dehydration can occur is key to knowing how to deal with stomach pains from dehydration.

The basic understanding of physiology covered in the related posts is useful to explain why I don’t have intense meals, ones that are hard for the body to digest before or during many every day situations:

• intense activity
• times of low water, either I’m dehydrated or will be because no drinks are available. 
• Long trips in a car, train, plain or other
• situations where I don’t want to need the toilet.
• during meetings
• at the cinema

It can seem obvious but it’s been really useful to know little tricks like this so I can be in control of myself during the day and make my body work for me all the time.
