How much water should I drink? The doctor revealed that 3 common mistakes in drinking water were misconceptions, and the number of people with urinary tract infections increased in summer

Have you observed your urination? If the color becomes darker, it means that the urine is too heavy, mostly because of insufficient moisture intake; if the urine becomes deep yellow after exercise, quickly replenish the water and return to normal. Zhou Gu, director of the Urology Department of Shutian Clinic, said that under normal circumstances, the urine is transparent and light yellow. If it is mixed, accompanied by frequent urine, burning, and even swelling, lower back and abdominal pain, hematuria, be careful of urinary tract infection.

"Doctor, when the weather gets hot, I will relieve urinary pain. What should I do?" The summer is here, and the number of female patients diagnosed in the urology department has increased, and the main cause is to feel uncomfortable in urination. Zhou Gu said that the heat of the weather accelerates sweating, which leads to a decrease in urine volume and bacteria tend to stay in private places. Drinking more water can increase the amount of urination and the number of times, expel bacteria from the body, and at the same time reduce the chance of bacteria growing in the bladder.

How should I drink more water? The cells, tissues, and organs of the human body all need water to run. The amount required by adults a day is calculated as the average weight of x30cc. For 50 kilograms of women, at least 1500cc is required. In addition, sweat evaporation is added. It is recommended to drink 2000-2500cc. Zhou Gu reminds that the amount of water needed for each person is not the same. For outdoor workers or sportsmen, the replenishment should be doubled due to large amounts of water loss.

Some people buy 2 liters of water for fear of insufficient water consumption, but they may not finish drinking it at get off work and have a good drink. Zhou Gu emphasized that by taking water in an average section of "small amounts and multiple times", the body can maintain stability. If you pour more than 500㏄ at a time, it will damage the stomach and change the acid balance of the stomach tract. If you drink too much water, you will urinate and lose more water in the body.

The soaked water is tamped, it has a soda taste but no sugar, and zero calories are not burdened. Many people think it is a new choice for drinking. Zhou Gu reminds that soaked water contains carbonate, which is not suitable for people with poor stomachs, and is prone to symptoms such as gastrointestinal uptake, indigestion, and gastroesophageal reflux.

Insufficient drinking water is not only caused by urinary tract infection, but also occurs due to symptoms such as urinary tract and heat stroke, and stones are also likely to occur. According to statistics, 1 in every 10 people in China has a stone problem. Summer is the best season for urinary tract stones. Zhou Gu said that drinking more water can dilute urine and prevent stone formation. If the stone causes urinary tract obstruction, it will inflame and damage the kidneys. It is impossible to improve by eating and drinking. We should seek professional doctors as soon as possible to help with the treatment.

Error drinking water and thinking

1. In order to drink 2500cc, drink more than 500㏄ at a time, which can easily damage the stomach.

2. Drinking soaked in water or tea or coffee will stimulate the stomach, tea and coffee will be diuretic, and caffeine will affect sleep.

3. Wait until you are thirsty before drinking water. This is the state of always "slight water loss" in the body.
