Why are people suddenly drinking so much water?

Prolly because of Ands promoting Stanley cups.

I mean, you right. It's actually crown apple and sprite. Like I'm literally going to drink an entire gallon of water just go detox my body tomorrow, but that's because it's actually necessary.
Throw out all soda drinks and alcohol. I truly think drinking 8 cups of water a day a because you feel it's necessary is pretty pointless. You only need to drink enough water to not feel thirsty. Unless someone has some good points otherwise.

Drink some water man
How much just curious? Like guess how much water I drink a day, then tell me how much I should be drinking to be healthy by today's standards.
Posted by Soul
I remember a time when you only drank water when you were actually fucking thirsty. People didn't need a guide or schedule for that shit. You feel thirsty, then you drank water.
You need to differentiate between the body needing water, and the system signaling it's distressed. When your body signals thirst you're already quite overdue.
Oftentimes being dehydrated doesn't even really signal thirst but various different symtoms such as headache, irratibility, high blood pressure, all of which are associated to feeling fatigued/tired/sleepy. But no thirst. Happens to me from time to time..
Next time you think you are tired or had a tough day, have a glass of water or two, and you'll get a whole new perspective on the day.
And you really think limiting water consumption is going to keep the microplastics out of your body?

I get your point there. Also no, I don't believe reducing water consumption will reduce significant micro plastics. Though drinking from water bottles certainly will increase them. I also feel forcing your body to consume water all day and having to piss every 5 minutes isn't good for you. It's just forcing your organs to do more work then necessary imo. I feel people need to be dehydrated at times, and hydrated at other times. It's all about balance for strong organs.

Holy fuck that's way too much. You're bladder is truly working over time. Like I'm truly dumfounded you aren't pissing literally every 5 minutes.

Nah not really. 5L when I worked outdoors in construction was nothing. And I work in a hot factory now I'll do like 2.5 l at work and then I'm drinking another litre after work and I go to bed and have a bottle I'll polish off over night.

There is no consensus whatsoever in the medical community that you "should be dehydrated at times cuz it's good for you". None. Zero.
There are extraordinary circumstances when it would be beneficial for you to be dehydrated.., such as when you are on your deathbed and days away from your last breath.. but otherwise, if you are a healthy individual, your ideas are quite bonkers. There are no benefits for your organs staying dehydrated , only downsides for your entire system.
Your logic with "organs doing more work than necessary" (that's what they are there for, to take up what the body needs ) is same type of logic as when ppl say coffee will dehydrate you bc it's a diuretic but completely miss what 98% of that cup of coffee actually consists of.
There's 45L of water in my body. Once you start drinking lots your body will absorb it into ever corner like all your sinew and in your skin, everywhere.
Fasting however is beneficial.

It's less of me thinking being dehydrated is a positive thing but knowing putting the body though stress tests at times is 100% beneficial. If you coddle your body it will be much weaker then a body that has gone though reasonable amount of stress while keeping a proper diet and nutrition. I feel you can't argue that. I'm not saying being dehydrated is a good thing over s long period of time. I'm saying it's a good thing because the body truly needs to be stressed out at times to be strong. That is fact.
Diabetes. Or maybe excessive sodium intake. Most diabetics will feel excessive thirst and experience frequent urination because the kidneys are working overtime to lower blood sugar. Or in the Western diet, we just eat a shit ton of salt and we get dehydrated. Most of the water we consume should be found in fruits and vegetables anyway. And water signs also need water to stay hydrated and full of sometimes useless emotions 😂

I mean hell, are you taking a sip every 10 minutes of your shift? You are pretty much spending more time drinking water then actually working lmao!
2.5 I can see though. Maybe 5 in a hot day. It does make sense jokes aside.

Well shit, I'm probably a diabetic judging by my diet and health. God knows I won't see a doctor though. Isn't type 3 actually just Dementia or Alzheimer's? That's how 3 of my grandparents died.
What happens to diabetics that aren't treated? Is it only heart failure or stroke? If so I'm fine with not being treated. I rather die randomly then being misdiagnosed with random shit I don't have. Or dying mindless.

All the fruits and vegetables we eat are cultivated to be big and juicy through thousands of years of agriculture. The realist thing you can consume is a glass of water. Yeah but if you're sweating then you're sweating out salt, lots of it, you need more salt...last time I checked my bloods they were good for diabetes but I have been suspicious if it, that's just water sign emo paranoia.
Lately my stream has been slow as fuck. Then afterwards I have a tendency to dribble in my panties a bit. Also after working out all day my piss tends to be a dark amber color. It's like I have to piss really bad, but the pee is a dark amber color and it's a super small amount. Low key, should I be drinking more water?

Dude, you are confusing working out with dehydration.
You seem to be implying your body can adapt to dehydration overtime, much like it does with say cardio, thus becoming "stronger"?
If you're talking about mental strenght, as in learning to better endure thirst MENTALLY, that's something completely different. But if you are hoping your body will become stronger through some sort of adaptation process through dehydration.. nah bro, doesn't work that way.

Why though? I personally believe it does. A person trying to work towards fresh water with the option of stagnant water on the table would work much differently then the person working towards fresh water with no other option. The person with stagnant water is much more likely to cave in and take what is on the table.

But I really can’t drink water unless I’m super thirsty or else I get nauseous

Again, you are talking about MENTAL strenght.
Your body is dehydrated when it's dehydrated, nothing will change that. It cannot be trained not to be dehydrated if only you stay dehydrated for longer periods of time.
Because originally you drank water when you were thirsty but then it became Im thirsty I will grab a cola
People/society developed habits which aren't good for them
Your premise that everyone will simply do the right thing for themselves without needing to be told is very flawed. Hence why you see mega obese people and people dying from drug overdoses etc etc

Nah, you'll definitely know if you were type 2 diabetes or pre-diabetic. You will feel off and experience excessive thirst. Weight gain is generally seen as the contributor to type 2. If diabetes goes untreated long enough (and this is usually in the most advanced, severe stages of continuous high blood sugar over many many years), your blood vessels and nerves will be affected, as well as kidneys leading to kidney failure or blindness - due to the nerve damage caused by 'betes. But that's in extreme cases. You'll also need to regulate your blood sugar via insulin injections cuz.. that shit ain't going down by itself.
I'm pre-diabetic, I think. But to be 100% sure, I have to take a blood test.

If you think you might be a diabetic you better see a doctor anyway just to make sure. You know when you have it. Anybody should know the symptoms from it if their feeling any of them. Get a blood glucose monitor and check your blood sugar daily to stay on top of it and keep it maintained. Don't do like me who knew I had it but still did nothing about it till I almost fell into a diabetic coma.
Being in a constant state of hydration is revitalizing. Pee out all your sins of the day! Let’s also maintain our pearly whites with no soda or alcohol! Straight edge only!
Cause we have to be hydrated and healthy?
Good point you made out there. Yeah water is contaminated with pollution and plastic like you mentioned. It’s even worse if you’re sharing a bottle of water together where you might spread germs to another and I believe that still matters after COVID.
As for the scientifically part, you’re spot on about this too. Don’t consume way TOO MUCH water similar to other liquids, drinks, and food
I mean as long as you’re eating healthy and taking moderations and serving sizes, you’ll be fine.
