Why does only orange juice quench my thirst since i caught a cold? i doubt water isn't hydrating me, i just still feel thirsty when i drink it.

Hydration: Water is more than adequate for hydration. Your body is craving sugar if you can only feel satisfied with orange juice. Do you have any medical conditions such as diabetes or kidney failure? The more sugary drinks you consume, the more fluid you will lose (hyper osmotic ).
