Misunderstandings of Drinking Water

1. Drink water only when thirsty

On this humid and stuffy day with the highest temperature of the year, we need to replenish our body with water at any time. When you feel thirsty, it means that the human body has lost 1%~2% of water. At this time, the kidney is already in a state of high load work, toxins are accumulated in the body, and the concentration of impurities in the urine is increased, which will threaten the health of the kidney and easily lead to Kidney stone disease, urinary tract infections, and Urinary system diseases.


2. Drink cold water

In summer, the first sip of ice cola is always so satisfying. However, frequent consumption of cold water or frozen drinks can easily lead to spleen and stomach deficiency and cold, resulting in symptoms such as fear of cold, lukewarm hands and feet, and cold stomach, which is not conducive to health. It should also be noted that after exercise, the heart rate accelerates, Telangiectasia dilate, and drinking water immediately, especially iced cold drinks, has a great burden on the body, which can easily cause damage to the heart, spleen and kidney, and even sudden death in serious cases.


3. The more water you drink, the better

We often say that we should drink more water in summer. But drinking too much water can also be harmful to the body. If the water intake exceeds the renal excretion capacity (0.7~1.0 L/h), it may cause acute Water intoxication and hyponatremia, which may lead to headache, nausea, vomiting, and memory loss. In severe cases, progressive mental retardation, trance, coma, and convulsion may occur.


So how is scientific drinking water?

Here comes the guide



1. Drink warm water in the morning

For the first cup of water in the morning, honey water, light salt water, coffee, milk, soybean milk, fruit juice and other drinks should not be drunk. Warm water is the most suitable. In addition, it is important to brush your teeth before drinking water, otherwise residual bacteria in the oral cavity may be brought into the body.


2. Drink small amounts multiple times, and drink less ice water

The healthiest water in summer is warm boiled water, and it is best to drink less or even no ice water. At the same time, try to provide preventive hydration by drinking 200-300 milliliters at a time, and replenish the same amount of water at intervals.


3. 8 cups of water per day

The Dietary Guidelines for Chinese Residents (2022) recommend that adult males drink 1700 milliliters of water per day and adult females drink 1500 milliliters of water per day. According to our commonly used disposable paper cups, we drink 7-8 cups of water per day.


4. Drink 4 cups of water well

200 milliliters at dawn

Drinking a cup of warm water with a volume of around 200 milliliters when waking up in the morning can reduce blood viscosity, promote systemic blood circulation, and awaken the gastrointestinal system, allowing the digestive system to start working throughout the day.


150 milliliters after nap

Drinking a glass of 150 milliliters of water after taking a nap can promote blood flow.


100ml before bedtime

It is not advisable to drink too much water before going to bed, so it is best to drink a small cup of warm water within 100ml, which can effectively dilute blood, prevent blood clots, and to some extent protect the intestines and nerves.


50 milliliters at night

For friends who have a habit of waking up at night, drinking two or three sips of water after waking up can accelerate blood flow, which is beneficial for the heart, brain, and blood vessels.



Drinking water is certainly beneficial for health
