Hydration
Hydration for exercise and sports
- 14-22 Oz of fluid/water 2 hours before exercise or activity
- 6-12 Oz of fluid/water every 15-20 min
- Any activity after 60 minutes, drink a sports drink. Natural without high fructose corn syrup like Propel products. Drinks or powdered packet mixes
- You must drink 16-24 Oz of fluid or water with electrolytes in it for every pound of body weight lost or maybe pound of sweat.
Day to day hydration for men and women
Men: 13 cups of water or anything with water in it, or 3.0 liters of water per day.
Women: 9 cups of water or 2.2 liters of water per day.
- When and if you drink milk, juices or pop, of course there's some water mixed with it, but normal water, especially reverse osmosis is more recommended. Shouldn't be drinking pop at all! Pop has phosphoric acid, which inhibits rust, it breaks down things, it's used in fertilizers, salt for ice apparently, animal feed, etc. It's bad for us & our teeth. Water hydrates, flushes out toxins, gives your blood more oxygen. Drink clean filtered water like spring or reverse osmosis water, it's alkaline. Distilled is only good if you're recovering from cancer or things like that because it draws out wastes from chemo. Although plastic is bad I still drink bottled water besides distilled water in a glass..
