Savoury products. Salt in large quantities is present in almost all packaged products in stores because it is used as a preservative. When you eat salty foods, your body’s cells to send signals the brain that you are thirsty, as salt removes water from cells and causes them to dehydration.

The soy sauce. In June 2013, a teenager from the USA almost died once on a dare and drank a whole bottle of soy sauce.

But even small amounts of soy sauce contributes to dehydration.
Stock cubes and flavour enhancers. They are included in sauces, curries, soups and fast food like noodles. They add a distinct flavor to dishes, although contain large amounts of sodium. Be sure to follow the ingestion of flavor enhancers and food with pronounced taste, since it can lead to dehydration and increases the feeling of thirst.
