Man my head was hurting for a few hours but it weard of so lesson learned don’t deink too much water

[@MrSupercar55]

When I get a headache the first thing I do is drink more water, as I read somewhere that more than 90% of headaches are caused by dehydration, including the notorious hangover, which occurs after a night of consuming large amounts of alcohol because alcohol is a diuretic, which increases urination. Of course other conditions can be to blame for headaches too, such as head injuries, migraines or influenza viruses, otherwise known as “the flu”, and this is where things can get very problematic because inadequate hydration is not the root cause of the headache. Couple that with the fact that excessive water intake also causes headaches at first, and if hydration is continued from then on, it can cause worse symptoms, including coma, brain damage, seizures and, if you’re really unlucky, death and you’re looking at a vicious cycle with some pretty unpleasant consequences.

[@shrimpflea]

It's pretty simple. Only drink when you are thirsty. If you're thirsty all the time, see a doctor.

[@hectorguzman28]

No one is hoing to drink gallons of water even if they wanted to. I used ti have a job that made me sweat a lot a used to drink almost three gallons some times. Now i drink less water i dont sweat like i used too because my job is different, but now i drink water according to my body weight, which is 11 glasses of water a day or more if i need it. The problem is many people think they drink too much water when in fact, their body is not used to drink the water they need, because they drink other kinds of drinks. You have to get your body used to drink only water every moment every day and forget abouy sodas, juices, etc, and you will notice after a week or so that your body is asking you for more water. You think your body is what it is, that's a lie doctors say, your body is the way it is because that's the way you think. So first uou have to change the way you think to change your body, and your body will change its bad habits. Another thing is if you are drinking enough water for the size of your body and you have swollen feet, that means you are not taking enough magnesium and potasium, dont blame the water.
