                                Divers can lose a significant amount of fluids—between 0.25 to 0.5 liters per hour—underwater due to factors like breathing compressed air and immersion diuresis, which makes proper hydration a cornerstone of safe diving. This makes thoughtful nutritional planning just as important as your equipment checks.
