When you don’t need to drink water

About the miraculous properties of glasses of water drunk in the morning before Breakfast, is commonly a legend. As about two liters of water that you should drink throughout the day to: a) start metabolism b) to restore skin youth and freshness, and C) to stay healthy.

Matter how great it may sound, for sure we know only one thing: optimal hydration allows the body systems to function normally, affecting both the appearance and health. In this context, the situation, when someone advises you to stop drinking, it seems unreal. But we still try, writes sundaynews.info.

So, you do not need to drink water when…

You already drank a lot of water

It happens incredibly rarely, but still- Yes, you really can drink too much water. So that its amount will bear a serious risk to health. The fact that exceeding the recommended dose (two, three or four times) upsets the natural balance of salt. And when the amount of sodium in the body decreases critically, there comes a condition known as hyponatremia.

This happens most often with athletes who drink water after a marathon and can’t stop, which leads to swelling of the cells, subsequently causing nausea, vomiting and cramps. Be careful: hyponatremia may also be triggered by problems with the liver, kidneys, heart, or pituitary, and in other cases, diuretics, antidepressants and pain medications.

You had a really big lunch

One of the easiest ways to cut calories is to drink a glass of water before you eat, that will naturally make you eat less (because the liquid takes place in the stomach). However, for the same reason, the consumption of too large amounts of water during or after a meal can cause discomfort, making you feel bloated. The main dish was quite salty, and now you incredibly thirsty? Take a few SIPS and wait — most likely this will be enough to quench your thirst.

You have long and intensively trained

We lose electrolytes, including potassium and sodium, through perspiration. That is why if you seriously sweat in training, you need to restore these important nutrients which aren’t in plain water. So instead of sweet sports drink experts advise to choose coconut water is rich in potassium, magnesium, sodium, vitamin C and fiber. Just be careful with the flavors that to this and add more tons of calories.
