Guest guest Posted January 28, 2012 Report Share Posted January 28, 2012 Water intake should be 1/2 you bodyweight. So if you weigh 200lb drink 100 ounce of water per day. Tony Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 28, 2012 Report Share Posted January 28, 2012 It's nearly impossible to drink that much and can interfere with sodium levels. That is a whole lot of water. •Robbin On Jan 28, 2012, at 12:41 PM, Tony Szpara <tszpara@...> wrote: Water intake should be 1/2 you bodyweight. So if you weigh 200lb drink 100 ounce of water per day.

Guest guest Posted January 28, 2012 Report Share Posted January 28, 2012 My drinking water is limited. My Dr does not want me to drink much water because my body retains the water. I only drink what I need to take my meds.

Guest guest Posted January 28, 2012 Report Share Posted January 28, 2012 What do you drink for liquids, Lucille? Has he drawn per albumin levels on you? If those are low then you will retain fluids . •Robbin On Jan 28, 2012, at 3:04 PM, "Lucille" <lschacht@...> wrote: My drinking water is limited.

Guest guest Posted January 28, 2012 Report Share Posted January 28, 2012 I'm on diuretics so I can't drink much water or liquids. I drink apple cider, mango or peach nectar or herb tea. I only have one cup of coffee in the morning. Lucille From: Robbin Sent: Saturday, January 28, 2012 3:52 PM Subject: Re: Making Adjustments Water Intake What do you drink for liquids, Lucille?

Guest guest Posted January 28, 2012 Report Share Posted January 28, 2012 What condition do you have? I have high blood pressure (well it's not so high now that I have been exercising so much, in fact my bp med was cut in half and eventually hope to stop it all together-with doctors help, of course) and I take a bp med that has a a diuretic in it but have never been told to restrict fluids. In fact told water helps wash sodium out to help get rid of excess fluids.

Guest guest Posted January 28, 2012 Report Share Posted January 28, 2012 I have heart problems with two leaky heart valves, atrial fibrillation and enlarged heart. The fluids build up and have problems breathing. And my lungs, emphysema from smoking 3 packs a day for many years. I started smoking at 18 around 1947 until the late 70's. About five years ago I was in the hospital and they had to drain fluid out of my chest from the back and filled a tall container with this green liquid. I don't want to go thru that again.

Guest guest Posted January 28, 2012 Report Share Posted January 28, 2012 That is exactly the difference between others and your definate reason to keep fluid intake low. You keep on doing what your doctor says, plus doing all the good things on nutrition you can. Good thing you quit smoking as early as you did, we still have you here with us because you did.

Guest guest Posted January 28, 2012 Report Share Posted January 28, 2012 I had tried to quite smoking many times but always went back to it. One of the ladies at church told me that she quit by prayer. So I tried it and it worked. It took a few months of praying for it, then when I had that strong feeling to stop, I did and never had the desire for a cigarette after that.

Guest guest Posted January 28, 2012 Report Share Posted January 28, 2012 Lucille, Velda is right. Everyone is made special and have their own ailments. Between your doctor, good nutrition, and smoking cessation- you are on your way to be the best you can be . Kudos to you.

Guest guest Posted January 28, 2012 Report Share Posted January 28, 2012 I've been reading about alternative health since I married my first husband in 1947. He subscribed to the Prevention magazine. In those days it was nothing like it is today. It was all about natural healing. Nothing about drugs. It was very interesting but I did think some of those people were crazy.

Guest guest Posted January 29, 2012 Report Share Posted January 29, 2012 My grandmother had be put in the hospital one time because a well meaning friend told her to drink lots of water to help her constipation.

Guest guest Posted January 29, 2012 Report Share Posted January 29, 2012 Yes- this is true. Without viewing lab work or knowing the ejection fraction of the left ventricle, telling someone to drink more water can cause them death. •Robbin On Jan 29, 2012, at 8:41 AM, " A" <blwkk2@...> wrote: My grandmother had be put in the hospital one time because a well meaning friend told her to drink lots of water to help her constipation.

Guest guest Posted January 29, 2012 Report Share Posted January 29, 2012 Yup - some people believe that if something is good for you, more must be better…The basic rule is divide your weight by 1/2 and drink that many ounces in water per day. I doubt that holds true for a 300 lb. person. I am sure that 9-10 cups of water per day should be near the maximum.

Guest guest Posted January 29, 2012 Report Share Posted January 29, 2012 A few years ago, here in Connecticut in a bar, had a contest to see who could drink the most water and would win a prize of a good sum of money. Can't remember how much. A woman won and her prize was death. While drinking glass after glass she ran to the bathroom often. but after awhile she past out. They called 911 and she died on her way to the hospital. It seems all that water diluted her mineral levels and it caused death. At the bar, they thought water would be safer then liquor.

Guest guest Posted January 29, 2012 Report Share Posted January 29, 2012 I think it is a surprise to many people when they learn that even water can be a poison (in effect) by drinking too much it results in water intoxication and can result in death.

Guest guest Posted January 29, 2012 Report Share Posted January 29, 2012 I should have clarified. 1/4 tsp of sea salted added to ea liter of water. Here's some info you may find useful. Basically it's called the water cure recipe. Drink 1/2 your bodyweight in ounces of water per day. So if you weigh 200 lbs drink 100 ounces of water per day. You MUST add 1/4 teaspoonful of SEA SALT per liter of water. It is important to use SEA salt and not table salt. It originated by the Dr at this site. He had used the technique to treat patients while a prisoner in Iran in 1979. http://www.watercure.com/ A more updated site with testimonials, videos and more detailed information is here. People have cured cancer, depression, diabetes, lost weight and cured a host of diseases and illnesses. Unlike many scams out there they aren't selling you a magic pill or potion to cure you. http://www.watercure2.org/ For those who are worried about sea salt and high blood pressure read here http://www.celticseasalt.com/Salt_Your_Way_To_Health_W68C2.cfm I use Celtic sea salt which has about 80+ minerals. (Table salt has 2). http://www.celticseasalt.com/ Tony Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt that holds true for a 300 lb. person. I am sure that 9-10 cups of water per day should be near the maximum.
