What If You Stopped Drinking Water for 7 Days?
An average person drinks about 264 gallons of water a year. People take this liquid for granted and perhaps never think what would happen if they stopped drinking it. Well, let's see what dire consequences this action would have.
"Water" includes other liquids such as soda, juices, tea, and old plain soup. However, these options are perceived by your body mostly like food. If the level of water in your body drops by 1 percent, your survival instinct will kick in, and you will start to feel thirsty.
As water is supposed to lubricate your joints and the areas between the bones, its lack will make your whole body hurt as your bones will grind against each other. The condition of your skin will get much worse. Your brain will start to shrink. At first, this will be a temporary phenomenon, but if you don't recover your water balance, the brain may suffer from permanent damage.
You can survive without food much longer than without water, that's why feeding isn't the priority of your body. You will be more likely to feel nauseous than starving.
It's extremely important to notice the signs of dehydration on time and do everything to avoid such a condition. So, pay attention to your water balance if you gain weight despite your regular visits to the gym meaning that your metabolic rate has lowered, you feel feverish, your heart rate is elevated, your skin loses its elasticity and turns red, you feel constantly tired and can’t concentrate.
If you stay in the office during the day, put water on the table and take a sip now and then. If your job is connected with moving around, remember to put your water bottle in your backpack. It may seem surprising, but more than 20 percent of your daily intake of water comes from food. Try to eat more celery, watermelon, and cucumbers to support your water balance. Another way to introduce more liquid to your diet is broths and soups.
