yuzedo: Op, bro, can water made me looked like Denzell Washing-tin? I hope i wont PISS in bed! Pls advice, cheers. Fact is: the more you drink water or any liquid, the more you piss. So start drinking from 6 am and stop by 7 pm. And sip water from time to time, not just stay one place and down 1litre.Thats the one that has side effects. And manage how you drink water when travelling. Everyone must master his body needs by experience. |

sanb: I might be wrong, but I’ve never heard of any negative effect...If there are any, you can enlighten us; cos I’ll like to know....It’s all about knowledge; of which we learn something new everyday... Some say its not right to form the habit of drinking up to one litre at a time. Reason is that when the heart fluctuates,it may not be able to pump the increased volume of blood that excess water creates. Please ask a physician. |

Costa2000: Thanks op,as from now less beer and more water. Fact is: beer and all alcohol cause dehydration, and the best way to rehydrate the body is to drink water. Fact again: drinking water to keep the body constantly hydrated removes the crave for other srimulants, that advertisers lies make people believe are enjoyment. All stimulants are harmful, thats why Govts are now banning them. |

sylvia.maurice@: I think you might wanna read this: Water intoxication, also known as water poisoning or dilutional hyponatremia, is a potentially fatal disturbance in brain functions that results when the normal balance of electrolytes in the body is pushed outside safe limits (e.g., hyponatremia) by overhydration (i.e., over- consumption of water). Under normal circumstances, accidentally consuming too much water is exceptionally rare. Nearly all deaths related to water intoxication in normal individuals have resulted either from water drinking contests in which individuals attempt to consume large amounts of water, or long bouts of intensive exercise during which electrolytes are not properly replenished, yet huge amounts of fluid are still consumed.[1] Moreover, water cure, a method of torture in which the victim is forced to consume excessive amounts of water, can cause water intoxication. Water, just like any other substance, can be considered a poison when over- consumed in a specific period of time. Water intoxication mostly occurs when water is being consumed at a high quantity without giving the body its proper nutrients it needs to be healthy. Excess of body water may also be a result of a medical condition or improper treatment; see " hyponatremia" for some examples. Notable cases Leah Betts died on November 16, 1995 as the result of drinking too much water, though in the media her death was initially attributed to taking an ecstasy tablet at her 18th birthday party. On September 12, 1999, US Air Force basic trainee Micah J. Schindler died of heat stroke, severely complicated by water intoxication, two days after becoming seriously ill during a 5.8 miles (9.3 km) march. The Air Force changed its recruit training procedures as a result. On June 9, 2002, 4-year-old Cassandra Killpack of Springville, Utah died as a result of water intoxication when her parents forcefully fed her as much as one US gallon (3.8 l) of water in a short period while she was being disciplined. Her mother, Jennette Killpack, was convicted in 2005 of child abuse homicide. On October 12, 2002, 3-year-old Rosita Gonzalez of Hollywood, Florida died of water intoxication when her babysitter Nancy Gayoso punished her by forcing her to drink three US quarts (2.8 l) of water in a four-hour period. Gayoso was arrested and charged with murder in the first degree on March 10, 2003. After being declared incompetent to stand trial in 2004 and 2005, Gayoso was found competent on March 26, 2007. In 2003, Walter Dean Jennings, a freshman history major at SUNY Plattsburgh, was pledging the Psi Epsilon Chi "when he was forced to drink urine, stay awake for days and consume vast amounts of alcohol during a 10-day initiation and hazing process." According to PressRepublican.com, "On his last night of pledging the unrecognized fraternity, the 18-year-old was forced to drink gallons of water through a funnel, which caused his brain to swell from water intoxication and ultimately resulted in his death." Eleven members of the fraternity were charged with criminally negligent homicide. In a much-publicized case of fraternity hazing, four members of the Chi Tau House at California State University, Chico pleaded guilty to forcing 21-year-old student Matthew Carrington to drink excessive amounts of water while performing calisthenics in a frigid basement as part of initiation rites on February 2, 2005.He collapsed and died of heart failure due to water intoxication. On January 12, 2007, Jennifer Strange, a 28-year-old woman and a mother of three, from Rancho Cordova, California, was found dead in her home by her mother, hours after trying to win one of Nintendo's Wii game consoles. KDND 107.9 "The End" radio station's "Hold Your Wee for a Wii" contest, involved drinking large quantities of water without urinating. A nurse called the radio station to warn them about the danger in which they were putting people, but the disc jockeys rejected the warnings. Lucy Davidson, the winner of the contest, was severely sickened while picking up her prize. Civil charges against the radio station were filed by Jennifer's family,[20] and the family was eventually awarded $16.5 million in the ensuing wrongful death lawsuit. The FCC launched its own investigation to determine if the station violated the terms of its operating license. In 2008 Jacqueline Henson, a 40-year- old British woman, died after drinking four liters of water in under two hours as part of her LighterLife diet plan. Other notable fatalities due to water intoxication include Australian schoolgirl Anna Wood (although similar to Leah Betts, her death was incorrectly attributed to ecstasy use), 2002 Boston Marathon competitor Cynthia Lucero, and Washington, D.C. police officer James McBride. British actor Anthony Andrews survived a case of water intoxication in 2003. He was performing as Henry Higgins in a revival of the musical My Fair Lady at the time, and consumed up to eight litres of water a day. He was unconscious and in intensive care for three days. Jonathan Paul Dent, 29, became lost during a four-hour walk through Tasmania's Dial Range on April 19, 2011. He called his wife a number of times to say he was lost. Rescue crews found his body in bushland two days later. The coroner found that Mr Dent most likely died from exercise- associated hyponatremia (EAH), a condition caused by drinking too much fluid during prolonged exercise.

indeed water is a natural medicine. Having undergone an operation in 2011 my doctors advised I should form the habit of taking water every morning in an empty stomach....... Taking 5 sachets of pure water every morning till this day has made me a lot healthier without having an ordinary headache. |
Re: Functions & Health Benefits Of Drinking Water by Kandiiikane(m): 7:34pm On Mar 14, 2013 |
Lmaoooooo Lol, no your face doesn't peel off. Your skin sheds skin and this basically helps it peel quicker and evenly revealing a bright even skin underneath. The peeling looks like normal skin peeling. @jenneni where exactly do you stay? You can buy kojic acid soaps if you don't want to do a chemical peel. |
