This should be something everyone learns. Many common headaches are just dehydration. When you've got a cold or flu, dehydration is common and makes you feel even more miserable. Got a hangover? This will make things better for you.

The only part of this I've never realized was how much sugar is needed to optimize it. Good to know for next time.
