      Main things:
      Don't drink cold water. Don't drink too fast, too much (unless you're replenishing electrolytes) or too quickly, or while eating (to avoid inefficient digestion)
      Obviously, tea, soda and the like are not water.
      I mean, it's a few tips, wouldn't call it CoMpLicAtEd. I think this helps to avoid ACTUAL physical complications if anything.

I see the direction UA-cam is going as well, but I’ve got to have my daily Dr. Berg video with my morning coffee. Everything else on UA-cam I could certainly live without.

      One more thing that is very important. Drink spring water if you can. It's not stripped of the mineral's that are essential to optimal health. Look it up. It's the best water you can drink. Distilled, purified not as good. Stay hydrated and have a good day.

    Mistakes in drinking water
    1. Drinking too much depleting minerals
    2. Drinking too fast, causing sodium imbalances
    3. Drinking the wrong fluids. Coffee, tea are dehydrating
    4. Drinking water with meals, keep low
    5. Drinking a lot of cold water can slow down vagus nerve
    6. Drinking tap water

    This is so true about drinking to much water. A few years ago drinking to much water caused me to become severely dehydrated and had to be hospitalized. Come to find out my magnesium and potassium levels were extremely low, which caused accelerated heart rate. The water was acting as a diuretic and I was flushing out nutrients and not replenishing them with a supplement or vitamin. Thanks Dr. Berg for your videos!

    I've been studying natural medicine on my own, and using it, for 40 years. All of the points you have brought up in this video are valid, for sure. I cringe when I see someone gulp down a huge icy sodapop with a meal. The end result is a net loss of hydration, and ice-cold drinks deactivate digestive enzymes. And people wonder why they have digestive problems! And so they take an antacid, which only exacerbates the problem. Years ago my aged mother had a heart attack, and while in the hospital, she developed edema in her feet due to congestive heart failure. She was at Loyola Hospital in Maywood, and the chief cardiologist there put her on water restriction. For my mom, a big water drinker, this was like dying and going to hell. I spoke with the cardiologist, and told him that water restriction has the opposite effect because it causes the body to hoard water. I told him that she should have all the water she wants, and it should be distilled water because distilled water lowers the osmotic pressure in the intestines, which helps to draw off the excess water. But I knew he would not take that seriously. After all, he was brainwashed in medical school and therefore knew better. And so, I took it upon myself to visit my mom every evening. I brought distilled water, and gave her as much as she wanted. She drank like a fish. The edema vanished very quickly. I called the doctor from my job and asked him how things were going with my mom. He was very happy. He said the diuresis treatment was very successful, and her edema was gone. I said, "I know. Now, let me tell you why that happened." He was speechless, and ended the call. This was back in October of 2003. Now, it is my understanding that the medical racket has changed its protocol for edema, and drinking lots of water is encouraged. I can't help wonder if that overpaid idiot promoted that treatment modality and took credit for it.

    Thanks Dr Berg, a subtle reminder always helps us😁. I’d pick water over any other drink, it’s the only one that satisfies my thirst. A lot of us don’t know what thirst is, as we mix it up with what we think is hunger. I always drink 500mls of water on waking, black tea with breakfast, 2 x cappuccino’s mid-morning, and the rest of the days it’s black tea and water. I use a jug filter (after off-gassing the chlorine; by leaving the water in a container without a lid, for half to an hour) and the jug is our guide to how much water we consume, and I think we are spot on. I also take an electrolyte supplement, along with vit D. I class us a pretty healthy, we always have plenty of veg, protein and especially as we are cutting out carbs and sugars. Thank you for sharing your great knowledge, I wish all doctors knew as much as you about nutrition!

      Waiting for Dr. Berg DC to provide evidence for his claim # 4.
      Did you conduct an experiment where you have followed 5,000 participants for 180 days to monitor fluctuations in stomach acid. Perhaps varying ages, genders, races? Did you allow participants to drink drink water during meals for the first 90 days, then ask them to dirk water after meals for the next 90 days so you can compare stomach acid levels?
      How long is . If I wait 1 second after eating is that ok? What about 30 seconds? Maybe 5 min? 10min? 1.25hr? 3hr? What is defined as "not during a meal".
      Equally important, does it even matter if stomach acid levels are diluted? How much is it being diluted? Is this dilution even a concern? For example maybe acid for diluted by 13.7% for 48min. Is that bad? Is the stomach acid still sufficient to digest food? If yes, the why are we even wasting time thinking about this.
      So again will Dr. Berg DC provide any evidence of his claims? Will he describe the process and mechanism that result in reduced stomach acid. Or... is he just expecting us to believe him because he has the word "Dr" in wrong of his name. What education, experience, and research does Dr. Berg DC have that qualifies him to give an opinion on the merits of delaying water consumption while eating.
      Maybe it is "bad" to drink water during a meal. Maybe d. But... maybe drinking water during a meal will allow for better bowel movements due to adequate hydration.. So now we have to make a decision to evaluate what is better, reduced stomach acid or reduced hydration. I don't know this. No one reading this comment has the answer. And the Dr does not have the answer. The difference is I am honest. But the Dr is talking with no evidence and everyone here is eating it up in a bowl of confirmation bias.
      Same thing with the vagus nerve . Any evidence? Medicine is a deep and broad subject. I find it very unlikely that one human in any life time could possibly have the time to become an expert in the area of digestive function AND nervous function.
      So when we have one person claiming to be an expert in 2 very different fields, it leaves me highly skeptical.
      The Dr is giving "expert medical opinion" which can alter the daily behaviour of anyone listening and following his advise. So I expect evidence and an explanation to understand if stomach acid reduction is real and if it is a concern.

    I constantly drank water for years and always had a bottle in my hand, 2yrs ago I started taking blackouts and I wasn't eating as everything I was eating or drinking was tasting like salt and I couldn't understand it, I went to the doctors and gave a sample of urine which was orange in colour, the doctor said I was dehydrated and needed drinks to put the electrolytes back in, I said "I constantly drink water how could I possibly be dehydrated" she said I was drinking too much water and I said how can you drink too much water, I was constantly sweating as well, so apparently you can drink too much water, I bought electrolytes for the water and keep himalayan salt in the cupboard, but I still haven't had a cup of tea as it tasted like salt and maybe that's good as I drank a lot of tea as well, I now know that when I start sweating I take some seasalt just a couple of dips in it with my finger, I was the last person I thought would be dehydrated.

    This happened to me twice. I was drinking more than a gallon a day. Got to day 2 and my heart rate sped up, and bloodpressure skyrocketed. I thought I was going to die. The doctors were checking everything but electrolytes. The ER doctors gave me BP meds. Which helped some. Another time this happened is when I was taking antibiotics. So for some reason antibiotics must deplete electrolytes as well. I had to figure this out on my own. So now I’m careful to keep my electrolytes in balance. Was a horrible experience.

    Most bottled waters have been found to have particles of plastic in suspension. You also don't know how long some waters have sat in bottles; stored for long in hot or sunny locations and you can have plastic leachate in the water. Water filters are much better. Here in the UK tap water is recognised to be excellent but varies across the country - I live in Scotland where it is considered 1st class. There is no lead piping in the UK which is still a problem in parts of the US.

    There is so much emphasis on drinking lots of water as the default and safe Go-To choice for making someone feel better or for medical treatment that it can result in dire consequences in some cases. I once reported to a hospital emergency room with difficulty breathing and the first thing the doctor orders is 2 large bags of IV fluids. Unknown to me at the time is that I was experiencing congestive heart failure and the fluids were the last thing i needed. My lungs later filled up with all that fluid and it because almost impossible to breathe. I had to be hooked to a large machine on wheels to force air thru while I was administered diuretics to help get rid of all that fluid while repeatedly & painfully coughing it up. Worse shape I've ever been in my entire life and felt like I was slowly dying by suffocation while gasping for every breath. The incompetent doctor that ordered the fluids disappeared from the ER and I never saw him again.

    I've found a liking for sparkling water and while I used to drink 3 or 4 cans of beer each night, now I prefer sparkling water.
    Having eliminated so much sugar with keto and fasting - and losing 103 pounds in 10 months - beer just tastes like fizzy sugar now. If I fancy some alcohol, like on an all inclusive holiday, I'll have a splash of tequila in soda water.
    Great channel.

      @kingzach74 2 роки тому +1

      The thing is you also get water from foods that you eat as well. Drinking lots of water without taking in enough vitamins, minerals, salts(electrolytes) can actually dehydrate you faster.
      Make sure you're not only drinking water. Most bottled water also has minerals added(distilled water has little to no minerals and isn't ideal for drinking), but often not enough to help you when you're already severely dehydrated. Drinking water when you're thirsty is obviously a good thing, but make sure you're also eating something with a little bit of potassium, sodium, and magnesium(particularly a balance rather than overabundance). Too much of anything really can be detrimental, while drinking water is certainly better than only drinking tea or coffee, a mix of fluids is certainly better than ONLY water however.
      Soups with balanced(very important) amounts of water, brother, salt, potassium, magnesium, and other vitamins and minerals are great, but again overdosing can be a problem with a lot of foods having large amount of sodium for preservation and so paying attention to how much you're taking is very important.

    I've started taking electrolytes this morning (thanks to your advise) and what I've noticed so far is that I haven't been hungry much today, having my first meal shortly (it's now 16:20, UK). This is amazing! I usually feel hungry like, every 2 hours and eat far too much! Tried to fast recently however, that was just not happening, bearly lasted until lunchtime.
    On average I drink 2.5-3 litres of water per day, drinking tonnes whilst I'm eating too, which I've now stopped or just take a sip if thirsty. I must've been flushing out too much electrolytes and that's why I was constantly hungry. My body obviously was deficient in vital nutrients or minerals etc. I'm guessing anyway, I'm no doctor lol.
    Thank you so much, will be watching a lot more of your videos 🙏🏻😁

    Yes, you can drink too much water. You can actually poison yourself with too much water. But it's pretty hard to do, and it isn't the problem most people have with water, which would be not drinking enough. The oft. cited 8-10 glasses a day certainly isn't too much. For most people, if you just drink when you are thirsty you will be fine. But if you are constipated a lot, or are a senior citizen (especially one who isn't very active), chances are good you aren't drinking enough. Dehydration is a way bigger problem than over hydration.

    Be careful asking an elderly person to drink too much - my 93 year old dad was advised by a nurse to drink 2 litres a day. Within a couple of weeks he was in hospital for a week with low sodium. He was having strange headaches, slumped on the couch, panic attacks and it took weeks to recover. A horrible time for him.
