Never once has my thirst reflex failed to keep me saturated. What’s wrong with these water enthusiast people?

Thirst alone keeps your pee clear to straw colored? If I rely on thirst alone mine will get much darker. Clear pee is good pee, I saw a friend get a kidney stone once, fuck that noise. I’ll do preventative maintenance by chugging some water every couple hours.

Kidney stones might be caused by drinking too much water, it anything, imo. My understanding is that they are made up of the deposits that are in water, like calcium and lime, so yeah I find it hard to believe that tripling the amount of deposits flowing through will prevent a kidney stone.

Yeah, we evolved the ability to thirst for a reason, and it works pretty well. The 8 glass per day rule was something pulled straight from the ass of some dude paid by coca cola to study how much fluid is healthy to drink.

Mine isn’t very reliable. I feel thirsty while the pee’s clear, or sometimes not thirsty while it’s medium yellow. Or I just have ADHD.

If you’re peeing too much you mat not be hydrating properly, make sure to take electrolytes too, like Liquid IV or Nuun tablets.
Droggelbecher@lemmy.world 3 months ago
Sometimes I drink so much water that I start noticing that I get thirstier the more I drink. Electrolytes are key then.
MataVatnik@lemmy.world 3 months ago
I used to drink a lot of water, and pee a lit, and still be thirsty. Stopped being an issue after I started taking electrolytes

Hyponatremia is actually a thing. A very bad and dangerous thing.
Donjuanme@lemmy.world 3 months ago
Had myself a case of diabetes insipidis (or something Latin like that). Was fucking awful. Now I’m back to my dehydrated self, but I’m not peeing 15 times a day

If you need to piss every 30 minutes then that sounds like you need more salt or hvae an UTI.
candybrie@lemmy.world 3 months ago
Unless you really are drinking that much water. If you’re drinking a few gallons a day, expect to be peeing constantly. Your body isn’t going to water to retain all of that and it has to go somewhere. Most bladders can only hold like 2 cups.
hungryphrog@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 months ago
I don’t think you’re supposed to put cups or any other vessels in your bladder.

Or the diabeetus
roguetrick@lemmy.world 3 months ago
Well by definition is diabetes. Not necessarily diabetes mellitus, but diabetes.

I stay away from hydrogen dioxide.
EisFrei@lemmy.world 3 months ago
Yeah that sounds super reactive.
Dihydrogen monoxide is a safer bet.

As hydroperoxyl is quite reactive, it acts as a “cleanser” of the atmosphere by degrading certain organic pollutants.

Isn’t there a community for that? c/hydrohomies or something. Don’t know which insurance and too lazy to search
