Myths about water that it’s time to forget

Why you can not drink too much water during the disease and how silver affects its properties.

Myth #1: you need to Drink 2 litres of water a day
A few years ago, the daily rate of water was calculated by the formula: 30-40 ml per 1 kg of body weight. Today, nutritionists recommend to observe the rule of 8 glasses a day, but it is not binding. Drink when you are thirsty.

Myth #2: you can Not drink while eating
A myth that has nothing to do with reality. You don’t dilute gastric juice, and do not stretch the stomach, washing down the food. On the contrary, the use of water promotes hydration of the bolus and earlier saturation.

Myth #3: During physical exertion should not drink a lot of water
During workouts drink a must, to avoid dehydration. Drink water in small SIPS every 10-20 minutes.

Myth #4: During his illness should drink maximum amount of water
Acute respiratory infections and other diseases accompanied by fever, accelerated evaporation of the liquid through the skin and lungs. The result: an increase in the concentration of salt in the tissues. The amount of water in the ARD — 2-2.5 liters. Drinking 3 or more liters of water reduces the concentration of salt and disturbs the water-salt balance. In all important measure!

Myth #5: Summer daily rate of water increases
During extreme heat, increased sweating, and evaporation of the liquid, but that doesn’t mean you need to drink a lot more — it will be unnecessary strain on the heart and blood vessels. Follow the feeling of thirst, not established norms.

Myth #6: the Amount of water consumed affects weight
Water consumption depends on the speed of metabolism. The liquid in sufficient quantity slightly reduces appetite, but the direct link between water and weight no.

Myth #7: Ionized water is beneficial
On the topic of ionized water were hundreds of studies but none of them proved that it is useful. The Ph of a liquid does not affect the Ph of the cell — body strictly monitors this indicator and supports it at the same level, regardless of what we drink and eat.

Myth #8: the Water overnight — the cause of facial swelling in the morning
A healthy person should not be swelling even after a liter of water at night. With the exception of pregnant women. If after sleep you regularly experience swelling is a direct indication for seeking medical attention.

Myth #9: In boiled water there is bacteria
Boiling is not the best method of purification. High temperature does not destroy all bacteria and heavy metals. Use the filters — the modern market offers a large selection of such devices.

Myth #10: Spring water safe for health
The sanitary condition of many springs leaves much to be desired. Known not a few cases of E. coli after drinking spring water. Do not take chances! Obligatory preventive minimum — filter + boil.

Myth #11: the silver Ions enhance water quality
In a large number of silver ions purify the water, but don’t make it useful! Silver is a heavy metal that tends to accumulate with prolonged use. Importantly, without fanaticism!
