Plain water hydrates, thats its whole thing lol

[@tardishousemafia5246]

I think the key word here is purified water, not plain water. I’m guessing the purification process strips the water of some of the minerals that are usually in it, which I guess could include some electrolytes

[@Pinkrevenge101]

I see but won't the salt make u more thirsty

​@@tardishousemafia5246then the water would strip out your electrolytes or over hydrate and dilute the electrolytes in your cells. Not dehydrate.

[@mimi_qmi]

​@nonchiii4548 electrolytes actually help the water be absorbed in your intestines. However, it's not really necessary to put extra minerals/electrolytes in your water if you're eating enough.l, because that's where the sodium and glucose and others will come from. Extra elektrolytes in your water are helpfull when you are losing a lot of water (ex working out) so that you can rehydrate more easily.

Plain purified water doesnt dehyrdate you. Adding salt to your water can dehydrate you..

​@@loveofearthcowhat dehydrates you is distilled water (aka purified to the level that it's plain h20 without anything in it).

Unless you are severely dehydrated drinking plain water will hydrate you. (Because of solutes and the way they are used to control the water water in and out of you cells, if you are really dehydrated, having water can actually dehydrate you more, in that case you need some electrolytes)

Who told you that jazz about water?

[@samaraluv]

If you remove everything from your water ie distilled you have to replace the trace minerals

[@korzhick5983]

@@samaraluvbut that doesn’t dehydrate you Dehydration happens when your cells get stripped out of water, which happens due to osmosis: water moves from a solute with low osmotic pressure to a solute with high osmotic pressure. High osmotic pressure is created by dissolving more particles (glucose/minerals) in water. This means, if she adds more minerals to water that she is drinking, then less water will go into the cells. For more water to go into the cells and hydrate you - drink normal clear water.

[@mozorellastick2583]

You aren't dehydrating yourself. Unless you're an athlete and you've just completed a very intense workout which has severely dehydrated you, have food poisoning or another similar condition which has had you vomiting and/or having diarrhoea, or are otherwise severely dehydrated or at risk of it, plain water is recommended over salt/electrolytes. The reason that you need to drink electrolytes when experiencing severe dehydration is because your cells can't uptake the water you're drinking due to your salts/water levels being disturbed therefor affecting their ability to absorb the water via osmosis. And in order to help your cells uptake the water you don't just need sodium and chloride (which is what Himalayan salt is made of) but also potassium, calcium, magnesium and other metallic salts that your cells need. So basically all you're doing is drinking salt water and giving yourself eventual hypertension. Drink normal plain water and if you're ever severely dehydrated you can either drink some Gatorade or your doctor or will give you packet electrolytes that actually include the full range of salts you need to help with hydration, not just sodium

[@rachaeltrujillo9960]

If you’re sweating excessively then worry about your salt intake. If you’re wanting to make sure you get in electrolytes try pedialite. Be very careful not to overdo it though on salt. High blood pressure can be dangerous when preggo.

Water does hydrate. Yes, a little salt will definitely help with hydration, but its very quickly too much and then it does the opposite. The right ratio is 0.9% salt or minerals. Regular water usually has some minerals in it already, so you dont have to worry about adding extra salt!

[@Soupssssssssssss]

[@asmith3057]

[@Phoenix_of_Sun]

I'm sure you are, but be careful about the amount of salt you are adding to your drinks. It looks like you did 3-4 twists of the grinder. Most grinders grind about 0.75 grams of salt per twist so that's 2.25 - 3 grams of salt or 873 - 1,164 mg of sodium. That's about ~45% of your daily requirement in one drink. Normally, we get plenty of sodium and other electrolytes from the food that we eat or multi-vitamins we take. Not judging or anything, you know your life better than someone seeing a momentary clip. Just please be careful, too much sodium can really hurt our bodies.

I just recommend not having the Nooch. While you’re pregnant you’re more likely to get yeast infections. Nooch is just yeast, it’s honestly not the best for us to consume, but while pregnant you’re risking yeast infections if you eat it(especially regularly). Speaking from experience and what my OBGYN told me with both of my pregnancies. Expecting my 3rd soon!

[@nmg6248]

That’s is misinformation. Remember, many doctors have EXTREMELY limited nutritional education. The yeast in nootch is not only a completely different type from Candida albicans (the type that causes yeast infections) it is killed in processing and so inactive. The nutrients nootch provides can help your body fight off yeast overgrowth however

I don’t worry at all! I’d actually be more worried if I wasn’t eating plant based seeing as a majority of the babies we see today who have NICU stays & see various amounts of health issues at birth are not raised plant based & are raised on a standard American diet consisting of junk/fast food. I did a lot of research on what to eat to make sure I’m hitting all my marks while pregnant & im doing a great job.
