i have read in a Phd Professor Covey that you should drink water standing  in day and sitting in night and the reason was that at day u need alot of water so when ur standing ur body can make a use of it very fast, but at night u need to go to sleep so u dont need alot of water, drinking while sitting makes the water to be stored in the intestines and used slowly.

you drink that much because your body is telling you to drink.  maybe you just get dehydrated easily.  regardless, you can never drink too much water.

haha!  no on the life guarding thing. . . gatorade is lovely and will keep you hydrated, but it's best to drink water too, cuz water is nature's purest form and obviously what our body needs!  in fact, i'm gonna go drink some right now!

If you put your hand in a semi-full glass of water, the water spills out.  Same idea.  With him inside, there's not much room left.\n\nAlso, when you stand up, there's gravity so it starts dripping now.  It's all perfectly normal.  Wipe it off and go back to bed.

You would die from the drop in your sodium level before you could ever 'drown"  Its called watering posioning. I have included a link for you

Alcohol prevents the reabsorption of water in the kidney.  It blocks ADH (which helps water reabsorption).  When you drink you will have to pee more often.  The only thing I would suggest is not drink so late, or not so much.

They would immediately become... LESS THIRSTY!\n\nHeh.  Deionized water is just a fancy name for extremely pure water.  It has been so thoroughly cleaned by filtration and iron exchange that it has a resistance to electric current of 18 megaohms... much greater than ordinary tap water.  It's got no negative impacts on the human body (well, I suppose you could drown in it) so you could drink it, bathe in it, use it for cooking, etc.  This would be a very expensive way to get your drink on, but it won't hurt you.

maybe your holding it up when you like to pee you should not holding it up or delay it....also drink a lot of water....i was once in your condition....my doctor said that i should not delay when i want to pee and drink a lot of water..now I'm OK and healthy but if I'm wrong and your situation is not the same as mine try to consult to the doctor maybe you have serious problem

i dont think so. it does have an effect. too much water may dilite your blood. the best solution is to self restrain and control the amount of water you drink. \nwell, good luck to you. hope everything is all right. ;)

These two methods never fail. Really 'Never Fail'.\n\n1. Pour water into a glass until it is almost overflowing - put your fingers in your ears (blocking them) now bend over and drink from the glass of water - it might tilt abit so a plastic one may be better. Your H'cs will dissapear.\n\n2. A little dangerous - lie down on your back and simply hold your breath for as long as you can - exhale slowly - repeat if the Hc's are still there. Don't overdo this one.

Because you're body is still dehydrated.  The only fluid that truly hydrates the body is water.  All other beverages are digested through the digestive system as though they were a food - just learned this after being in the hospital with dehydration from seizures and stroke occuring at the same time - I now have to drink 120 ozs of water a day or my body feels sluggish and undernourished - if I drink another beverage - I have found it is usually unsatisfying as far as quinching thirst.  If your water is from your tap it may have a chemical in it you're reacting to - so I would suggest bottled water.

As long as you eat and drink normally, nothing should happen. If you drank deionized water without consuming anything else for a very extended period of time... significant amounts of your cells would probably rupture. Your body maintains an ionic strength equilibrium, that is maintained through the process of osmosis. If the environment outside your cells becomes decreased in ions, water will flow into the cell across your cell membrane to maintain the ionic balance. If too much water is taken up into the cells, they explode. However, it would take quite a while to deplete your ionic store so low to cause this to happen on a large scale. If deionized water were introduced directly into your, say, bloodsteam... then the local environment around your blood cells would be so low in ions as to cause your blood cells to rupture... This is why you will see saline solutions, not water, pumped into people in the hospital to keep them hydrated. \n\nConversely, if you drink sea water, you rapidly overload your extracellular fluids with salts, increasing the ionic strenth outside your cells. Water flows out of your cells to balance the ions, and your cells literally dry up. Since your body used water to flush excess ions from your system to avoid a build-up, when your only way to replace that water is to add huge amounts of ions, that requires more water to flush out than you are  taking in... well... you "dry up" and die. That is why you should NEVER drink sea water.\n\n:-)

Hiccups are a spasm of the diaphram.  Hold your breath and while doing so, take your middle knuckle and hold it against your windpipe.  This keeps any air from getting through.  It has always worked for me.  It's probably the same principle as people telling you to try and drink water while you are holding your breath, however I think it's more effective than drinking water, because you aren't allowing any air to get in.

The water is more pure and clean without dirt and air pockets.  Standing water is more likely to have foreign particles in it which makes it impure.

Oddly enough it is drinking more water and avoiding salty things, it also helps to sit and elevate your legs for brief periods of time.  I had that same problem with two of my pregnancies.

Although I have not read this book, I do understand the importance of water, and how little of it we really get. Also the quality of the water leaves something to be desired. Weather you drink bottled or tap, you really have to drink a lot, because of all the other things that are in it. Most people walk around "drinking from the toilet" (your bowel). Because when you do not drink enough water your body must get it from somewhere. And despite what most think, you CAN NOT get enough water from sodas, tea, and coffee. I found what I believe to be the best water in the world, it is a filtration system and they even have a sports bottle so you can have GOOD water where ever you go. You can check out the link below to see these things, and please drink more water no matter if it is bottle or tap.
