Do you take water intake seriously?

[Gyfts]

Do you know that men need an average of 3.7 liters of water (that's about 15 cups) a day while women need at least 2.7 liters (about 11 cups)?

3+ litres is overkill and can actually cause more harm than good to some people

2 litres are the norms
if you already have heart, high blood pressure, or bladder/kidney issues where you retain water. even 2 litres can be too much if you are not excreting an equal amount

if you are sweating alot due to excessive exercise then yes more can help. but for majority of normal people 1.5-2 litres is the norm.

its also worth noting 2 litres of fluid is not the same as two litres of water
so dont include things like milk, orange juice, gravy, roast beef grease and many other 'fluids'  as part of the count

Also consider any solutes in fluids you're intaking. For example, caffeine is a diuretic and would cause less hydration than someone drinking the same amount of fluid absent of caffeine.

The body is good of indicating thirst when it needs water. Someone not conscious of water intake would still clear 3.5+ liters on average if there's enough water around and they drink when they're thirsty. I never make a conscious effort to drink a certain amount of water and am still adequately hydrated.

I once tried an application which was intended to track my consumption of water and let me know whenever I needed to drink more, so I could meet the minimum liters recommended. And I must say that it is harder than It seems to be, I found myself drinking a glass of water each hour or less and I went to the bathroom more than previous days.

So I am aware it is important to drink water and I do whenever I feel like it, but drinking water when one does not even feel thirst, it is rather uncomfortable.

[Wiwo]

What the heck is going on with all the water intake campaign online lately,  even in my local community there have been increased campaigns for water intake and this is very good for us all as we all know how important water is to the human body since about 80% of our body is made up of water so to stay hydrated we need to consume a lot of water on daily basis.

We have to give more priority to water in our daily consumptions,  but also for extra advice consume more water during the day and less water towards evening and try emptying your bladder before you go to bed.

[Roseline492]

Water is very essential in our life were as without water it becomes difficult to survive, water  is like an engine oil in our body were as when there is no more oil engine seize to work, so I don't jock with water I make sure I take a good quantity of water everyday to be hydrated.

[Pingrapole]

Water is the driving force that governs the body because without it, we cannot survive, but we do not keep track of how much water we need or keep.But how much water is needed in the body When the mind is in danger, it can be said that water is the most important function of the body Water for refreshment Blood circulation in the body is normal and all activities in the kidney are normal It plays a very important role in the normal functioning of blood pressure and regulates the temperature of the body through water.Another name of water are life, and it acts as the root of all health without water the life of human being is unsustainable.If we do not drink water properly, we invite the body to develop many diseases, so we should drink water properly.Nothing is too good to be balanced then it will bring good health in life.

[Gaza13]

Water is an important function for the human body. It is best for everyone to evolve to maintain health by drinking enough water, because the impact will be very helpful for our bodies. The important thing is that you fulfill your body's fluid needs first, especially for people. Those who work in offices with air conditioning and sit for too long continuously and rarely drink water, this will have a bad impact on the body. Because for office people, their bodies will respond to excretion through the urinary tract, if the excretion is not normal as usual it will have an impact. suffering from kidney failure. It's important for all of us to sweat it's very important too,
In contrast to work where we are directly exposed to sunlight, the more we sweat, the more we will feel the body's response, namely very high thirst and the need for fluids, which is what makes us healthy and fit.

[mich]

Well yes I think it is very important for us to make sure we do this. It is very important for us to drink lots of water each day to clean our bodies and to stay dehydrated.

If we do not do this we can have medical problems. I drink a glass of water in the first thing in the morning with my breakfast. And I will drink water all day and have another tall glass of cold water before my bedtime.

[Ikechi]

Drinking enough water is often emphasized as important, but I personally struggle to follow this advice. I don't feel thirsty very often, and sometimes I have to push myself to drink a cup of water even when I don't really want to. I only drink water after meals, and even then I usually don't finish a whole cup. I believe I need to work on being more disciplined when it comes to drinking water.

While you consume all the juicy and great meals at home, how seriously do you take your water consumption rate?

Do you know that men need an average of 3.7 liters of water (that's about 15 cups) a day while women need at least 2.7 liters (about 11 cups)?

Of these, do you even meet up with 50%?
 
Do you know that water intake
1. Prevent kidney damage
2. Help maintain blood pressure
3. Helps the digestive system and reduce dehydration
4. Boost skin and health and beauty
5. Cushion the brain and help with proper thinking.

Do you also know that failure to take enough water can lead to
1. Persistent headache
2. Lead to doled skinned
3. Unnecessary fatigue
4. Increase risk of stroke. Etc

When next you think about eating a great meal that is of a balanced diet, remember water is one major thing you shouldn't joke with for any reason.

I only managed 2-3  liters a day depending in the climate .

if summer , I can have more than that , but in cold season? na I only consume 2 liters .

[Ricardo11]

I drink water seriously all the time. Because if we drink less water, various problems will appear in our body, the biggest problem is that the brain does not work, because the blood in our body reaches the brain through very thin veins, if we do not drink enough water  But our blood will become thick, as a result, blood cannot reach the brain through those thin veins, as a result, our brain will slowly become dull. Also, drinking less water can damage our kidneys. Again, low water intake leads to high blood pressure. A variety of other problems also arise. So I drink water seriously all the time. And I drink a lot of water every day

[bitterguy28]

I maintained my 3-4 liters of water in summer and 2-3 when it is cold season.

because In summer we sweat a lot so we need to replenish the water , but in time that there are no sweating  I think there is no need to take more than enough?

We cannot deny the advantage and the help of water , because our body is composes of almost water so with that this is a healing process for our body having enough or even more water.

Drinking enough water is often emphasized as important, but I personally struggle to follow this advice. I don't feel thirsty very often, and sometimes I have to push myself to drink a cup of water even when I don't really want to.

not because you are not thirsty meaning you need not to drink water, because in places where it is colder you cannot feel the thirst but our body still needs this.

[vleroybrown]

The moisture level in the air around me seems to effect my hydration requirements. Hot days spent outside cause  perspiration in excess of a liter or more. Those days are 3 liter or more type days every time. Although when the air is dry, like now in the winter, I wake up with a desire to consume water. I prefer spring water without the treatments found in so many sources. There is a city park near me that has 8 different spring sources, each with its own minerals and ph profiles. Some of those are robust in sulfur. Drinking it can be a challenge, that has its own particular benefits.

[boyptc]

There is so much benefits for taking water and first, it is one of the necessities that we need for our body.

We can't live without water.

We live for a few days by just in taking water without food.

But I don't know how long a person can survive with food but without having water.

That's how important water is to our bodies and if there are people that don't take it seriously. I don't understand why they don't because it also cleanses our body toxins.

[johnsaributua]

Of course, the lack of drinking water intake is so felt for the body (dehydration), I agree that the benefits of mineral water consumption for the body are very many, the variety of excessive carbohydrates consumed in various countries varies depending on the abundant supply and sources in the country because they are just looking for delicious and overcome hunger, sometimes people only realize this, even though mineral water is a simple thing that can clean the rest of the metabolism in the body, and clean digestion, the effects felt by each person are different, some have migraines, some are like you mentioned there are also those who feel weak and not enthusiastic about living a lazy routine.

Health experts call for water consumption according to body weight and you can consult a doctor in your neighborhood, or you can visit the website => Hydration Calculator to calculate your daily mineral sufficiency. Have a great day in consuming mineral water regularly and sufficiently. Continue to strive to maintain good health along with adequate exercise and rest.

There’s laziness first of all some people see drinking water as a chore because compared to sodas, juice or other sugary drinks, water is not exactly the most delicious drink so instead of drinking water with enjoyment they tend to feel lazy to drink water seeing it more as a chore than a pleasure

[franky1]

in relation to blood sugar and insulin resistance/effectiveness and other hormones

you should not be drinking flavoured/sweetened(sugar or artificial sweetener) all day long.
your body needs a 4 hour break between flavoured things. because your tongue is the trigger of your hormone release which then handles what you ingest.

so if you are drinking sweetened things every hour you are triggering your hormones and insulin.. even if the drink is decaffeinated or artificially sweetened. the issue then becomes that because real caffeine or sugar never gets digested your body then adapts and stops working properly when the tastebud are triggered...
but then when real caffeine and sugar gets tasted your body is not ready to process it.. and the snowball start to roll

so having tasteless fluid/water each hour but only having sweetened drinks with your meal(4 hour gap) is the best option

yep having (adults) coffee with breakfast is better than having coffee an hour after breakfast
yep having (kids) OJ/milk with breakfast is better than having OJ an hour after breakfast

0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 0
|   sleep        | X |   water   | X |    water    | X |   water    | sleep

X being when you eat/drink flavoured stuff  

the reason people have a period where they crave caffeine is because their hormones are expecting caffeine
the reason people have a period where they crave sugar is because their hormones are expecting sugar

this mainly happens if the hormones that process caffeine/sugar are always active due to previous triggers setting them up to continuously flow. and when you dont provide it your body crashes

you need to program your body to not always be active so it doesnt make you feel lethargic all day. and instead your body responds properly at the proper times

its the same as food. if you always snack, you end up always being hungry every hour. so reprogram your body to not have hormones spinning through your body all day waiting for it. get them into the 4 hour routine by not triggering tastebuds every hour

Laziness or not.

What people need to realize is about the health benefits of intaking water at most times. No one stops you from drinking these sodas or sugary drinks.

But with that, you still need to intake water no matter what and how much intake you do for those calorie drinks.

[rodskee]

I tried maintaining 8 glasses a day of water but the problem is that sometimes I missed it
 , though in summer i can take more than that but in rainy season? i cannot even take 6 glasses because i
kept peeing lol.that is hard for me of course .

[jrrsparkles]

The average numbers are nonsense because its just the mean amount of total consumed so we don't really know what is the optimal amount needed, and our body knows how much water we need to drink so drinnk whenever you feel thirsty but avoid drinking even when you feel thirsty will lead to health complications and the most common one is kidney failure.
