How to drink healthy water

​

What we commonly know

Is the daily recommended water intake truly correct?

What parts of the body benefit from drinking more water?

​

I'll share fun and detailed information about drinking water and hydration! 🤓

​

​

​

The daily water intake recommended amount that we commonly know is 2 liters.

Is drinking 2 liters of water truly the appropriate daily intake per person?

​

The answer is No! They say that's not correct. ❌

Everyone has different ages and physical conditions, and

Accordingly, the recommended amount of fluid intake varies.

​

Therefore,

Just because everyone consumes 2 liters doesn't mean it's good for health.

I can't really say that.

​

However, the World Health Organization recommends consuming 2 liters of fluids per day.

This is the average amount of moisture that people excrete from their bodies in a day.

​

Additionally, fluids can be consumed not only through water.

Because they can be sufficiently consumed in daily life through vegetables, fruits, and other foods.

There's no need to drink exactly 2 liters of pure water. 💧

​

​

So, how much water should we actually drink in a day?

​

How to calculate the appropriate water intake per person

​

✔️ (Height + Weight) / 100

​

The amount of water we need to consume in a day

It is proportional to the amount of moisture evaporating from our body!

Because the amount of water evaporated varies depending on physical conditions such as height and weight.

The appropriate intake amount varies from person to person.

​

​

It is good for health to drink plenty of water.

You've all heard that phrase, haven't you?

​

However, drinking a lot of water is not always good.

We recommend consuming an appropriate amount, neither too little nor too much.

​

▪️ When you drink too little water

​

Metabolism becomes sluggish, preventing toxins from being expelled.

Waste products are not being expelled smoothly, making it easy to feel fatigued.

Additionally, when there is a lack of fluids, calcium and uric acid in the urine tend to clump together.

Calculi can also form.

​

▪️ When drinking too much water

​

The concentration of sodium in the blood decreases.

Especially, if you drink too much water at once

Decreased sodium concentration and electrolyte levels can cause weakness, headaches, and vomiting.

​

​

​

​

Is it okay to drink a beverage instead of water?

​

These days, many people frequently consume coffee and tea like water.

Since coffee and tea are also fluids, drinking a lot of them is beneficial.

It can have the same effect as drinking a lot of water.

I think there are some people who are thinking about it!

​

Coffee and tea contain caffeine.

Caffeine is said to promote diuretic action, which expels water from the body.

Therefore, you may excrete more fluids than the amount you drink.

​

The best way to hydrate is by drinking pure water.

​

​

Drinking plenty of water is good for your health.

You've heard that phrase many times, haven't you?

​

However, drinking a lot of water is not necessarily good for your health.

As I mentioned earlier, even drinking a lot of water can cause enough side effects.

​

Especially for patients with chronic illnesses, it's good to pay close attention and ensure adequate fluid intake!

​

For diabetic patients, consuming insufficient fluids can lead to a hyperglycemic crisis.

Please replenish with enough water!

For patients with kidney disease, their kidney function is impaired, so they cannot properly excrete fluids.

Therefore, it is better not to drink too much water.

​

​

​

In patients with liver cirrhosis, the concentration of albumin, which helps maintain the osmotic pressure of blood vessels, decreases.

Therefore, because it is difficult for fluids to move throughout the body, you may experience ascites, and drinking too much water is not advisable!

​

In cases of heart failure patients, drinking a lot of water increases the blood volume remaining in the cardiovascular system, which raises blood pressure.

Since fluids can move to the lungs or brain where pressure is relatively low, leading to swelling, it is recommended not to drink excessive amounts of water.
