The role of hormones in nighttime awakenings
The body normally produces more antidiuretic hormone (ADH) in the evening to limit urine production during sleep.
If a large volume of fluid suddenly returns to the bloodstream, this regulation may be insufficient. By stimulating drainage earlier in the evening, you facilitate the natural action of this hormone.
Hydration: timing makes all the difference
It's not about drinking less, but about distributing intake better.
Try to consume about 60-70% of your daily hydration before 3 p.m.
Limit coffee, tea, alcohol and large amounts of water in the 2 to 3 hours before bedtime.
If you are taking dietary supplements or medication, ask your healthcare professional for advice on adjusting the timing of intake.
These adjustments allow the kidneys to work harder during the day.
