Rudolph Virchow described three conditions that predispose to thrombus, the so-called Virchow’s triad. This triad includes endothelial injury, stasis or turbulence of blood flow, and blood hypercoagulability.

Dehydration isn't the main cause of hypercoagulibilty. But since you've made the claim, how about posting a link to some peer reviewed science instead of some website?
