Water

[Rodimus]

It is very important to drink lots of water because water prevents blood clots and prevents constipation.

 

[fncceo]

Just not too much ...

In fact, the most important reason you drink water is, without it, hypernatremia sets in and can eventually cause loss of motor function, Rhabdomyolysis, kidney failure and death.

Of course too much water and you end up with hyponatremia, with many of the same symptoms and failures.

Which leads to the question.....when faced with not knowing if you are over or underhydrated....just water you gonna do???

This guy at work almost died from drinking too much water. He was in the hospital for a week or so. But he was drinking gallons a day..

Watch the color of your pee...

 

[Unkotare]

By the time you feel thirsty, you are already dehydrated.

Watch the color of your pee...

Thanks, it wasnt a very good joke.

 

[Rodimus]

Watch the color of your pee...

clear pee means you are drinking enough water. dark yellow pee means you are not drinking enough water and dehydrated.

Water is like fun to drink when you're hot!

 

[Unkotare]

If you get dehydrated too many times when young, you may get kidney stones when older. You do NOT want that.

One of the first raves I ever went to was called Water. It was out in midlothian tx. Fun times!

It was out in midlothian tx.

My roommate in college was from midlothian tx

There will be world conflicts over clean water someday because I dustry will contaminate it all in the name of a lousy dollar.

Oh okay was that roommate a bit of a hick?

 

[hjmick]

Kidney stones.

Healthy water intake helps prevent kidney stones.

If you've ever spent the night in the hospital with a loved one trying to pass a kidney stone, you would be drinking plenty of water...

Yeah - he did attempt to teach me how to speak Southern. Because of him, I can't pronounce Ice Tea without a Texas draw decades later
