FLUID OVERLOAD
Further investigation is necessary to examine older adults under a fluid deficit condition to establish how older adults deal with fluid replacement and fluid overload situations. In addition, future research could aim to investigate more significant challenges to homeostasis using test drinks with greater electrolyte and macronutrient composition differences. However, under the conditions of the present study, it is evident that free water clearance is impaired in the first two hours following a fluid overload in older adults when compared with responses in young.
