Answers:
12 glasses of water!? DAMN!!! A good benefit for me!? My pee looks like water and I can pee in other people's bathroom without flushing and they won't know a DAMN thing!!! LOL, just kidding, but drinking water is good to keep your body at constant temperature and to keep your body's metabolism good!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I've lost a lot of weight from sugared beverages to just water!. (20 lbs)

EDIT: To "carpediemmaster" You are wrong!.

Read over what you wrote, I'm a clear example of the diet "myth!." I've done NOTHING but switch to normal water, and anyone who suggest that diet soda is just as good for you as water is absolutely nuts!.

Also, just because your made up of 60% water doesn't mean it's clean!.!.!.!.Your body constantly replaces the old water with the new water, and if you keep doing that you will look and feel better, it is not myths!.

Drink lots of water! You wont regret it!. This Stanley Goldfarb is just one of those nobodies that tires to fake a story to have his fame!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I tried once drinking 8 glasses of water every day and I noticed my skin looked great !.!.!. wasn't as dry and the fine lines around my eyes kind of plumped out!.

I've read recently though that too much water just over taxes your kidneys and that 8 glasses of fluid a day can include stuff other than water (so doesn't have to be other drinks plus 8 glasses of water)!. I don't know though !.!.!. my skin did look good with the extra water!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Latest studies suggest that water does not do most of the things that are usually claimed!.!.!.
not skin, not fill you up!.!.none of those!.!.!.!.
I bought into all those things too, but now that I've read the latest, I only drink when I get thirsty!.
Even my marathon training trains that I should drink a LOT of water, but I've stopped!.!.!.and I don't notice any diffrerence on my long runs!.!.!.!.

Myth No!. 1: Drink Eight Glasses Each Day

Scientists say there's no clear health benefit to chugging or even sipping water all day!. So where does the standard advice of drinking eight glasses each day come from!? "Nobody really knows," says Dr!. Stanley Goldfarb, a kidney expert at the University of Pennsylvania!.

Myth No!. 2: Drinking Lots of Water Helps Clear Out Toxins

The kidneys filter toxins from our bloodstreams!. Then the toxins clear through the urine!. The question is, does drinking extra water each day improve the function of the kidneys!?

"No," says Goldfarb!. "In fact, drinking large amounts of water surprisingly tends to reduce the kidney's ability to function as a filter!. It's a subtle decline, but definite!."

Myth No!. 3: Lots of Water Equals Healthier Skin

The body is already 60 percent water!. So, if you take a 200-pound man, he's 120 pounds of water!.

Adding a few extra glasses of water each day has limited effect!. "It's such a tiny part of what's in the body," says Goldfarb!. "It's very unlikely that one's getting any benefit!." His full editorial is published in the current issue of the Journal of the American Society of Nephrology!.

One study published in 2007 on the cosmetic benefit of drinking water suggests that 500 ml of water increases capillary blood flow in the skin!. "But it's unclear whether these changes are clinically significant," says Goldfarb!.

Myth No!. 4: Drinking Extra Water Leads to Weight Loss

A more accurate statement may be: Drinking water is a helpful tool for dieters!.

"Water is a great strategy for dieters because it has no calories," says Madeline Fernstrom of the University of Pittsburgh!. "So you can keep your mouth busy without food and get the sense of satisfaction!."

But water is not magical, she adds!. Other zero-calorie options such as diet sodas are fine, too!.

Myth No!. 5: It's Easy to Get Dehydrated During a Workout

Dehydration sets in when a person has lost 2 percent of his or her body weight!. So for a 200-pound man, this means losing 4 pounds of water!.

Marathon runners, bikers and hikers all need to recognize the signs of dehydration!. "It is also obvious that individuals in hot, dry climates have increased need for water," says Goldfarb!.

The American College of Sports Medicine recommends that athletes drink 16 ounces of fluids a couple of hours before starting sports practice!.

But for a stroll in the park, no water bottle is necessary!. Goldfarb's advice: Just drink when you're thirsty!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
