Being dehydrated is bad for you in a vast variety of ways.

The harmful dehydration effects include fatigue, high blood pressure, asthma and allergies, skin disorders, high cholesterol, digestive disorders, bladder or kidney problems, constipation, joint pain or stiffness, weight gain and premature aging.
