   6 Common Mistakes While Drinking Water

1.     Drinking Too Much Water :

                                                   Yes it is possible especially when you force yourself to drink all this water especially without electrolytes that help you deal with this extra water. When you drink too much water, you can dilute electrolytes specifically salt and you can create a condition hypopatremia where there’s not enough sodium in your blood and that actually is a form of dehydration. So it is possible that drinking too much water can put you in a situation where you’re dehydrated.

2.     Drinking Water Too Quickly :

      This is not like a major point, it’s a minor point but when you drink water too fast, sometimes the sodium in your blood doesn’t have a chance to help balance this fluid and that’s one of the sodium’s jobs is to help balance fluid inside and outside the cell and so when you’re forcing too quickly too much water in your body than can actually create some swelling especially if it’s a lot of water because sodium will start going into the cell too fast and you’ll be deficient outside the cell so it creates this in balance situation.

3.     Drinking The Wrong Fluids :

                                                   You’re getting all your hydration from other fluids like coffee, tea, maybe alcohol which completely dehydrates you, soda which is completely dehydrating and yes there are certain people out there that think that soda hydrates you – it doesn’t. So when you are drinking like coffee and tea realize that both of those have a diuretic effect so they can be pushing fluid out of your body and not necessarily hydrating you and also if you’re on diuretic on top of that and you’re pushing all this fluid out of your body it can make you very dehydrated.

4    Drinking While Eating :

                                            Drinking while eating can dilute your gastric juices like hydrochloric acid and if you already have a weakness within this area you don’t have enough stomach acid or it’s not acid enough which is very common especially if you’re over the age of 45. Drinking more water with your meals will dilute your ability to digest especially protein and you may end up with gerd or acid reflux. So, Don’t over drink water with your meal.

5.     Drinking Extremely Cold Water In Large Amounts :

                                                                                            It can inhibit the vagus nerve. This is a minor point, it’s not a big point, some people can drink a lot of cold water but if your digestive system is already weak, let’s say you have get a lot of bloating or you have a lot of digestive issues and you drink a good amount of ice cold water that can slow down the vagus nerve which is responsible for digestion.

6.     Drinking Tap Water :

                                       Some people will say that drinking tap water is safe but they’re finding all sorts of things in tap water that are not safe. Not to mention the chlorine and fluorine but also glyphosate which is the chemical roundup ready that is involved with the gmo foods. You have chemicals that affect fertility, hormones, your brain; you have chemicals that are carcinogenic and on top of that there’s a lot of nano size particles, very small particles of plastics that you’re getting when you’re drinking the tap water.
