okay in this section we’re going to talk

about water there’s several myths about

water the first thing is that your body

is 60 water that’s absolutely not true

your body’s not 60 made out of water in

fact none of your body is made out of

water it’s made out of fluid that has a

combination of water and electrolytes so

that includes your blood your lymph your

fluid inside and outside the cell

also water does not flush out fat

fat is water soluble it might be you

might be less hungry for about five

seconds until you have to use the

bathroom

this whole philosophy you need a glass

of water is totally not true

because i don’t know who actually came

up with that idea but it’s basically a

rumor made up by you know everyone knows

or they said the truth is that drink

when you’re thirsty and always put

something in your water whether it’s

lemon or unsweetened cranberry to add

for the electrolytes because your body

is made out of a combination of

electrolytes and water not just water

the last myth with water is water does

not flush out toxins

kidneys flush out toxins

so the question is does drinking more

water improve kidney function and that’s

absolutely not true if you drink too

much water you can actually die of a

disease called hyponatremia which is

flushing all your salts out and then you

end up with brain problems and heart

problems because you need the

electrolytes

so

the key is to drink when you’re thirsty

and don’t ever drink when you’re not

thirsty and add something to the water

more of electrolyte i like lemon
