2 a.m. dehydration refers to waking around 2-4 a.m. thirsty due to overnight fluid loss from breathing, subtle sweating, or evening diuretics like alcohol/caffeine/salt-heavy dinners.
Causes Breakdown
Circadian rhythm peaks cortisol/adrenaline at 3-4 a.m., mildly dehydrating; poor evening hydration or mouth-breathing exacerbates dry mouth/thirst.
Fun Rehydration Hack
