Today, I will cover some interesting new concepts about water and its ability to hydrate your cells.
Water gets into your cells through small channels with help from electrolytes. A dehydrated cell has an imbalance of electrolytes and fluid, not just a lack of water. If you drink too much water, you can dilute certain electrolytes and become dehydrated.
Water is important, but we don’t get hydrated just from water. When you’re not thirsty and force yourself to drink a lot of water, this can cause various issues, especially if you exercise.
Other liquids like coffee, tea, soda, alcohol, and fruit juice can deplete your electrolytes and cause you to become dehydrated. Sports drinks may also cause more weight gain than soda. Even certain electrolyte powders contain a lot of sugar.
A good principle is to drink when you’re thirsty and don’t force yourself to drink too much. It’s also essential to get all of the electrolytes and avoid things that can deplete your electrolytes.
Keep in mind, if you’re prone to kidney stones, you should drink at least 2.5 liters of fluid with electrolytes every day.

Thanks for watching! I hope this helps you better understand the best way to stay hydrated.
I think the best thing to do is,drink when you are thirsty,eat when you are hungry and eat what you feel like eating. Oh and yes have that glass of wine..
As much as I appreciate your great knowledge and insights regarding human health and working so hard compiling these videos, I love them all, however, please remember that a human mind is incapable of storing every information that’s compiled in longer durations of these videos. Try keeping the videos in shorter durations and just give bullet points pros and cons only. This method will definitely help us learn – and more so, remember every hint and tip. Thank you 😊
I died of dehydration waiting for doc to reveal how to hydrate
i found it interesting that he provided two different study results about the sugary drinks from the Nurse’s Health Study 11:
"the study found that if a teenager or young adult was consuming at least 1 soda a day, they would have an extra pound of weight." then immediately goes on to say "teenagers that consume one soda a day, on a regular basis, gained an additional 2 pounds a day." then said those who drink the sports drinks, with added sugar, gained 3 1/2 pounds of fat extra on their bodies.
what he failed to mention was that this study only included women and also the time period for the weight gain. here’s the AI summary from Google about the study, specifically about the sugary drinks and weight gain correlation:
The Nurses’ Health Study (NHS) and the Health Professionals’ Follow-up Study (HPFS) have both found that drinking sugary drinks is associated with weight gain, type 2 diabetes, and cardiovascular disease.
Weight gain
The NHS has found that drinking more sugary drinks is associated with weight gain.
One study found that drinking one additional 12-ounce serving of a sugary drink per day was associated with a 0.20-kg (about half a pound) higher body weight in one year.
Thanks
I’m a singer, have to drink lots of water, especially on show days. How else do you stay hydrated?
to stay hydrated throughout your day and workout: water, pink Himalayan salt, beet root powder, ashwagandha, magnesium, and creatine work great…🙏🏻💯✅🐺
Thank you so much for this information . 🙏
Dr Eric Berg 😊
I started making hibiscus tea by the gallon. I rarely crave water, but I DO crave the tea (cold) ALL DAY LONG, and it has health benefits (like iron, antioxidant, vitamin C). Also, I have switched to sea salt.
Can you please talk about microplastics don’t know what’s best way to drink water. Tap? Etc…
If i dont have cold water available.. i wont drink it. I forget.
What about coconut water ?
Nurse advice was to drink Gatorade after low sodium blood test results. Suggested tok much water. Problem I get too hot and need water and drink water for indigestion, and if short of breath or exhausted, it helps.
I drank a gallon of water a day for 30 days, and the skin on my face was unbelievably soft and smooth. This was not a sustainable practice, though. I stay plenty hydrated without that much water.
Recently there have been many articles I’ve seen online saying to drink 8 glasses of milk a day. This is crazy. I couldn’t imagine trying to drink 8 glasses of water and 8 glasses of milk a day.
Soda cones in 20 ozs.
Drink water when you’re thirsty, & have as much as you need to quench your thirst. Done.❤
I put salt on my food and I’m generous with it. I don’t usually add it to water. When I did the 41 hour water fast I was only drinking ginger water I woke up in morning temp went up got dizzy didn’t know what was going on. Had to eat chocolate and honey before I felt better.
I just discovered your videos yesterday,VERY grateful,MANY health challenges!!!😌🙏🏼🙏🏼🥰☮️
I oxygenate and had hydrogen to filtered water. Then I add a cap of ACV. Plain water tastes bland to me now. My everyday beverage is coconut water with a splash of lime juice topped with plain club soda. Super hydrating
From what I see the majority of people does not need to be alarmed to drink less water, so this gives the complete wrong message. It’s like warning from anorexia while the populations problem is obesity – but then this is what we have seen talking about the last 10 years and even billboards got replaced showing obese instead of slim people.
Thru my mid life I was so occupied, non-stop, with house and office chores, I never drank a cup of water, throughout the whole day (no time for the toilet really). I just drank a cup or two of coffee only. Looking back I don’t know how my body kept going. But later I had renal stones and after menopause I suffer from severe hot flushes that I no longer could keep a job and the renal stones are troubling on and off, will it weaken the kidneys, I worry now.
Just look at your pea.
If it’s dark, drink. If it’s like water, back off. Nice golden showers
My hubby says I don’t drink enough, but I can’t force myself to drink if I’m not thirsty. Never have. I only drink when I’m thirsty. He drinks tons of tea and coffee and can’t work out why his sleep isn’t good 🙄
I hesitating drinking water while watching this video 🙄
Are electrolyte waters okay to drink especially for CKD and T2D
A 77 year old person who is taking medication for relief of pressure at the skull base following a fall has loss of appetite and nausea. The doctor suggested drinking Ensure Gold powder with milk to avoid malnutition. Its this good advice and what alternatives would be better?
During WWII in the South Pacific theatre, coconut water was used as a blood plasma substitute in field hospitals. Yes, coconut water directly into the blood stream
I’m experimenting on consuming distilled water in every thing possible to the body
I’ve done this for about 20 years
I also put baking soda in my decaffeinated tea
I can say that my eye sight

Like a lot of other things

Thank you Dr Berg for the information ❤
Watching this as I go back to work as I grab my hydro flask to drink water lol oops
What? You must be kidding. Water is essential for survival. Cheers with beers!
Who else do not worry about this.
I am pretty sure that most people have the ability to feel their needs.
Other than Magnesium what is the most important electrolyte to have when trying to stay hydrated while ASLEEP? I’m only sleeping 4 hours due to severe dehydration when I wake up.
Prior generations that had clean environments, clean water even out of the hose and good fresh foods without gmo’s and UPF’s were fine not drinking all that water everyday.
Water is a gift from God
Dr. Robert O. Young says to put organic baking soda in water. He says water is worthless. I also put Utah salt, a packet of crystal lemon and a little ginger.
You are supposed to pee pale, not clear…..

Thank you Dr. Berg🙏🏿🥰
Half Gallon a day. Not a Gallon.
Water is in a lot of fruit other things. But yes 32oz of water is needed
My mother used to say yes we need water, but don’t drink so much that you wash all the good things away in your body.
I drink water, tea, coffee and juices without sugar.. and I am healthy.. sea salt is added to my diet and urine tests are great.. I also drink one-two cups of coffee a day and one cup of water to balance the coffee as it does as you mentioned dehydrate you.. it is a diuretic after all.. love your channel..
I wouldn’t be able to eat if I drank 8 glasses water to drink. I drink plenty of water
In the past people drank beer, because water wasn’t safe to drink. Maybe we should return to drinking beer.
