Could someone please provide evidence that drinking water beyond the minimum needed to prevent dehydration is.
of any secondary benefit to the body. Not speculation. It is said that it "detoxifies" the body and "flushes" it out. What emperical evidence is there of this? And also what specific toxins does it flush out. For example after a massage some populace say to drink water to flush out toxins. What exact toxins are they and are they demonstrated within urine since they are flushed out.
Answer: That's a 9 hour a week course on renal physiology in medical school (or a 500 page paper of reading). It's ummm, complicated. As for empirical evidence, there are several peer reviewed medical journals devoted to this exact topic.
However, if you doubt the existence of toxins, simply drink your own urine as your simply source of hydration for a few days. Seriously. You won't dehydrate because you are replacing most of the fluid in your body. You also won't live very long (and you will attain sick pretty damn quick). Why? Because most toxins in the body are released in the urine By products of majority metabolism that are poisonous beyond a certain threshold..
When you are told that after a massage what they in actual fact mean is waste products contained by the muscle tissue. Not toxins. That is the wrong word. It's built up lactic acid. Same thing that happen when you work out and you feel sore later. You hold a buid up of lactic acid.
Water hydrates the muscles and assists in the out flow of the lactic tart. distilled flushes the most. its the closest to actual h2o you can get. water next to flouride is not good for you and you should not drink it. dont take my word for it, do the research..
a research study only just released found no benefits to consuming more water as being biddable for you.
