| Try the Jimbo Test. Picture three things in your mind; a cold drink, a cheeseburger, and a slice of cake.
* If the cold drink appeals, then you're probably thirsty/dehydrated.(Remember, drink to thirst as over-hydration kills.)
* If the cheeseburger appeals, then you're either after fat or salt.
* If the cake appeals, then you'll probably have to some carbohydrate.
| Too little fluid intake<ref>Even without dehydration, if you're not drinking enough to maintain urine production then you may become nauseated. This is because the hormone that reduces urine output also causes nausea.</ref>
|
* Rehydrate, but try to drink to thirst. Remember that over-hydration kills.
|
* Drink more
