(TikTok script) Check the chronic dehydration levels of a human in just 5 seconds like a doctor.
Updated: Aug 19, 2021

You can check your hydration level right now in just 5 seconds. No machines or robots are involved.
Just follow the following steps:
1) You have to pinch and lift the skin on the backside of your hand with the 2 fingers of the other hand.
2) Now, If you open the fingers you are pinching with, the skin on the backside of your hand retracts back.
If the skin retracts back quickly to its original position then this means that you are hydrated. Cool.
If the skin takes more than 1.5 seconds to come back to its original position, you need to drink water. You are dehydrated.
This process is known as the “skin turgor test” and your doctors will usually do this test on you to check if you are dehydrated or not.
PS. This test should not be done on old people who have loose skin. This test won’t give an accurate result if done on them.
So…The main question is... Do you need to drink water right now?
