so today we’re gonna answer the question

should you drink water before going to

bed and the answer is no you should okay

why there’s actually two reasons number

one drinking more water is gonna make

you get up to the night and that’s gonna

interfere with your sleep okay so we

don’t want to do that so an average

bladder can hold a little more than a

cup and a half of urine before certain

receptors are triggered forcing you to

get up in urinate and there are people

that have to get up through the night

and urinate for other reasons because if

you’re a diabetic it’s gonna increase

urinary frequency if you’re taking

diuretics that’s gonna do it if you have

a prostate problem and by the way as a

side note if you have a prostate problem

just to avoid dairy and see if your

prostate problem gets a lot better

because you may have prostatitis which

is an inflammatory condition which could

be triggered by dairy but that’s a

separate video and then you have a

fibroid which is a mass pressing on your

bladder or a condition called hyper

Calci mia could do it as well i have a

separate video on that you can watch

that okay so number one we don’t want to

drink before you go to bed because it’s

gonna interfere with our sleep number

two dry fasting okay now this is going

to be my watered-down version of dry

fasting and no pun intended were you

gonna do not a really long dry fast and

by the way a dry fast basically means

you’re fasting without drinking any

water so the benefits of fasting are

huge but when you do dry fasting they’re

enhanced even more of course to a point

because you can’t go too long without

drinking water before you die but what

happens when you do fasting is it

triggers certain types of survival

mechanisms that actually then cause this

adaptation and these great survival

benefits that occur and doing a dry fast

also helps that so my recommendation is

to not drink pass let’s say six or maybe

seven o’clock at night and that will

give you a good enough time to be able

to empty your bladder let’s say an hour

and a half later and then maybe one more

time before you go to bed and then

you’ll get the benefits of the sleep

plus the benefit

of some dry fasting okay because you’re

doing a version of this you’re not going

24 hours you can drink in the next day

but it is a mini version of dry fasting

to a certain degree so it will give you

some benefits and also realize that your

body can can actually turn some of the

fat into water so when you’re burning

fat you are releasing some water as well
