How Water Affects Aging
How many times have your heard drink 8 to ten glasses of water everyday? How frequently do we actually drink that much pure water?
Would you believe that as you are reading this page you are dehydrating? We were all born as grapes, but now we’re turning into raisins. Your body was once more than seventy percent water and now, if you’re like most US citizens past the age of forty, you are lucky to have a hydration level above 60%. The bodies of most hospitalised old are less than fifty percent water.
Today, northern Americans consume more coffee and sodas than water. These beverages, together with tea and alcohol, are diuretics and dehydrate the body. All the moisturizer in the world will not restore a youthful appearance. By dehydrating your body you are actually pulling a hundred times as much water out of your skin through the urinary tract. Much worse than the skin dehydrating, is the dehydration of the internal organs, connecting tissues and the brain.
Insufficient liquid intake and excess water loss can disrupt vital cell function. The general public experience this level of hydration all day, nearly everyday . Water is necessary for all anabolic repair functions, and conversely, dehydration accelerates the process of aging.
A study at Fred Hutchinson Research Center in Seattle found that girls who drank 2 tumblers of water a day had virtually twice the chance of cancer of the colon than women who drank 4 glasses a day. The few girls who did drink eight or more glasses of water a day had less than half the chance of those who drank only four glasses. The organisation of increased water consumption may also reduce the risk for other kinds of cancer. In one study, the women who drank the most water were eighty percent less sure to develop bladder cancer than ladies who drank the least. Other conditions that often respond to increased water intake include the reduction of headaches, muscle aches, hangovers, fatigue, constipation, and heartburn. Drinking enough water will also reduce fluid retention and edema. Often it is hard for folk to grasp that drinking plenty of water basically decreases water retention. If you provide your body with sufficient amounts of pure water, it will not have to retain water in the tissues The body can become noticeably dehydrated before we really feel thirsty.
In the morning, you have a true need for water, but you may not feel it. For most people, the first liquid they consume is coffee, a drink that sucks the water out of our cells.
Try this test : Before you eat or drink anything in the morning, sip about 4 oz of water-no more. You’ll be shocked to see that in two to three minutes your mouth will feel parched. Drink another 4 oz. and in 2 – 3 mins you’ll be thirsty again. You may have to copy this six or more times before you are no longer parched. Add up all the four-ounce servings that you consumed, and you will discover your body’s true metabolic need for water.
