Judy vents and puts down and attempts to mind read.

I am simply another poster sharing what has been helpful to me. Was what I wrote unclear to you? Or is this your usual reality-avoidance behavior? Because it's a complete non sequitur. Nobody said it was an academic forum or a journalistic one or that you were anything but another poster. I think I read this in the book You're Not Sick You're Thirsty. And that's your some people in the health care industry?? A book by a quack? It was first published many years ago so I'm not surprised that new findings are available. And heaven forbid you check to see whether there are new findings rather than spewing out the old ones. Just too much bother, says Share to herself. Instead I'll cite some people in the health care industry to make myself sound all authoritative and all. I notice you carefully deleted what I said about the new findings, along with the URL to a story about them. Think you could be just a little bit more dishonest, Share? Sorry to spoil your ploy, but here's what you deleted again: As it happens, I'm challenging you. Recent studies in the British Medical Journal appear to show that the notion that if you're thirsty, you're already dehydrated, is false. Thirst (as one might expect on the basis of common sense) turns out to be a finely sensitive mechanism for determining one's degree of hydration. It seems that the meme you repeat was started by the manufacturers of sports drinks (GatorAde, etc.) in an attempt to increase sales, and has now become common wisdom. Except that it's wrong: http://health.yahoo.net/experts/dayinhealth/are-sports-drinks-harmful-or-healthy Scroll down to the heading Undermining a Natural Body Signal: Thirst for more. --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, fairfieldlife@yahoogroups.com wrote: Judy had written: Share, citing some people in the health industry does not give what you say any additional credibility, it just makes you appear to be trying too hard to sound as if you're well informed.

My advice Share: you don't need someone in a book to tell you when to drink a glass of water. Or to tell you when to pee, do you?

authfriend: Share continues her reality-avoidance approach after having cited a book by a quack... So, it's all about Share. I guess this is the point where we get up close and personal. Go figure. Discussion Tips: 1. Use bold or italic to emphasize words or phrases, or for quoting, but avoid using bold for the entire body of your message. 2. Some discussion group readers don't read rich text formatting such as bold, so compose your message for the lowest common denominator. 3. Try to use plain text to compose your messages - don't use fancy typefaces with words or letters in color. 4. Indicate quoted text with a right angle bracket. 5. Don't post flame-bait to the discussion group in an effort to start a war of words over how much water to drink every day.

John, rule of thumb is divide your weight by 2 and that's how many ounces of water you ideally drink per day. I was very motivated to do this when the temps were in the 90s.

Depends on your dosha doesn't it? Your body will tell you unless you have so messed it up it doesn't even know anymore. Published recommendations are for the masses where they assume people don't drink enough water, eat too much fatty food and therefore are overweight due to that (instead of the fact they may well be eating too many carbs).
