What If You Stopped Drinking Water for 7 Days?

Показать описание
An average person drinks about 264 gallons of water a year. People take this liquid for granted and perhaps never think what would happen if they stopped drinking it. Well, let's see what dire consequences this action would have.
"Water" includes other liquids such as soda, juices, tea, and old plain soup. However, these options are perceived by your body mostly like food. If the level of water in your body drops by 1 percent, your survival instinct will kick in, and you will start to feel thirsty.
As water is supposed to lubricate your joints and the areas between the bones, its lack will make your whole body hurt as your bones will grind against each other. The condition of your skin will get much worse. Your brain will start to shrink. At first, this will be a temporary phenomenon, but if you don't recover your water balance, the brain may suffer from permanent damage.
You can survive without food much longer than without water, that's why feeding isn't the priority of your body. You will be more likely to feel nauseous than starving.
It's extremely important to notice the signs of dehydration on time and do everything to avoid such a condition. So, pay attention to your water balance if you gain weight despite your regular visits to the gym meaning that your metabolic rate has lowered, you feel feverish, your heart rate is elevated, your skin loses its elasticity and turns red, you feel constantly tired and can’t concentrate.
If you stay in the office during the day, put water on the table and take a sip now and then. If your job is connected with moving around, remember to put your water bottle in your backpack. It may seem surprising, but more than 20 percent of your daily intake of water comes from food. Try to eat more celery, watermelon, and cucumbers to support your water balance. Another way to introduce more liquid to your diet is broths and soups.

SUMMARY
-Water transports useful substances and nutrients to different organs of your body; it provides energy; it strengthens muscles and lubricates joints.
-When your body feels the lack of water, it starts conserving fluids. After a day or so without liquid, you will stop peeing at all. Your energy level will drop significantly, you will start to lose focus easily.
-Your mouth becomes dry, and it's hard to swallow. The color of your urine turns darker than usual. You feel constantly tired and can’t concentrate.
-Follow the rule of "8 by 8". This means that you need to drink 8 ounces of water 8 times a day. Take a water bottle wherever you go. If water is unavailable, try to find other sources of hydration.

I remember when I got really sick last year and didn't eat or drink water for 5 days straight. I ended up drinking some water on the 6th and food after 2 weeks. I experienced some but not all of the side effects in this video. For example, my eyes didn't hurt, but I did have incredibly shallow breathing and insane migranes. My stomach also hut an insane amount after rehydration, but none of my organs had shut down. Please stay hydrated, loves.

I'm currently 2 days without water and food and I feel fine. I don't think my organs will shut down any time soon.

Don't drink on an empty stomach. You will feel the effects of alcohol a lot faster if you drink on an empty stomach and increase the likelihood of feeling sick. Most food is better than none at all, but you should try to eat a more hearty meal that is rich in carbs and proteins that can help you absorb the alcohol, instead of just eating some fruit or a salad. Having a meal before you go out will make you much less likely to drink over your limit very quickly.

Sometimes, people go to hospital because of the lack of water in their bodies. I did. About 2-3 years ago when I was 10. They tell you, of course, that you need to drink more water but if someone thinks like me. We start finding excuses to stop drinking water and we eventually don’t drink water, and we only drink other liquids (like tea and juice). It’s been years now since I went to hospital, and I still avoid drinking water, sometimes calling it ‘disgusting’ and other times making up excuses like ‘I forgot’. I find it hard to stay motivated to drink water, despite the fact that it is affecting me both emotionally and physically. Telling a child that they need to drink more water whilst they are vomiting, can really provoke them to stop drinking it at all.
