Nope, only true in extreme cases. I was curious about that years ago, and while it might make you need to urinate more frequently, it doesn’t actually make you urinate more volume unless you consume way more caffeine than your body is used to. Now, alcohol on the other hand, anything over like 3-5% ABV does have a net dehydrating effect.
You do need salt, or that water just instantly becomes piss.
Instantly you say?
I believe they’re using ‘Instantly’ like this.
Wow xD
Idk, just, no? Bottled water or water from the tap or whatever all has no salt.
We do need a certain amount of salt, but it doesn’t need to come from the water, drinks do not need to be isotonic to hydrate you.
That’s really not the case. Most tap water and bottled water have some salt and the amount varies widely by brand/location.
Guess which water is used for the coffee buddy xD
Caffeine in the coffee is a diuretic though. It’ll make you lose more water through urination than if you drank the equivalent volume in just water.
Although caffeine is a diuretic, coffee is net hydrating.

This doesn’t actually seem to be completely true. The diuretic effect isn’t enough to really impact the benefits if drinking a 99% water solution.
