Drinking Too Much Water Can Be Dangerous
Did our ancestors walk around all day with water bottles, sipping nonstop? No — they didn’t.
Yet today, water is constantly pushed on us everywhere we go: restaurants, meetings, gyms, social events. We’re told to drink all day long, regardless of thirst.

Don’t get me wrong, water is essential. We can’t live without it. But here’s what almost no one is talking about. When you consume excessive amounts of water, especially after exercise, you can dilute sodium and other critical electrolytes. This creates a dangerous imbalance in the body.

How ???????
I had a friend that did this. They felt very unwell for a long time until their doctor tested for electrolytes and concluded that they had this condition and were effectively just flushing out all the good minerals they need in their body.
Does anyone else still get a sugar craving after eating a meal? Don’t worry, you’re not alone! Try incorporating plain organic grass fed Kefir.
Flavored kefir has up to 35 grams of sugar per cup. Long-fermented, unsweetened kefir has the lowest sugar content.
Yeah, what causes that? @starkefir57

That might be why they specified plane
This over drinking of water 💦 put my little brother in the ICU. He was in a couple hospitals for about a month consecutively.
He got brain damage.
He’s no longer with us.
I am so sorry to hear that.
It’s brave of you to share that as an example.
I’m sorry to hear that you lost your brother 😢
So sorry to hear that, may his soul rest in peace
So sorry for your loss. GOD bless you and family with strength and healing 🙏 ❤
@morgienaicker7353Hey, thank you for your sympathy. Appreciate it.
I am so blessed to have found out about Dr Berg from a Nurse . She told me always have more than one doctor. She said never trust having one doctor , always check the reviews and ask around . She was getting ready to retired
Ssssss, Let us not talk about that your body Needs Potassium! 😧😊
Good for you Barbara ❤
Thank you so much for teaching us how to not neglect our health.God bless you always 😊
Big Food and Big Pharma are “tearing people apart”
And big water
Errm rivers and streams everywhere?? No need for bottles😂
Omg thank You for addressing that Dr Berg! Back in high school, they say drink 8 glasses but it never made sense to me because I never wanted to drink that much every single day! Not because I didnt want to, but I never got thirsty to that extent. I only drank as much as I wanted when I got thirsty! I did use bottle but only to keep it close to me so I do not feel lazy to drink when I get thristy.
It also ignores the fact that some people are twice the weight of others. So would require different amounts of water.
I been stressing this to everyone I know for years. When was water in bottles sold like they are today? When I was a kid in the 90s I dont remember going to store and seeing water bottles. Maybe on bottom self in cooler. Now there’s a whole section for water.
Water bottles were popular for bikes and sports in the 90s the ones with the nozzle like you see hockey players use
I only drink when I am eating and when I am thirsty. I never bought into the health fads.
If you are drinking too much water when you eat, be careful because that dilutes your stomach acid, which is needed to properly digest your food.
@elainethomas1894
Facts!…❤❤
@elainethomas1894I don’t drink too much water when I eat. I only drink when the food I am eating makes me thirsty.
I heard it is better to drink water 30 minutes before or 30 Minutes after eating. Could someone please verify?
@detuquy3037
Yes, 30 minutes before and more like 1 to 2 hours after depending upon the foods and quantity!
AFTER LIVING IN THE US FOR DECADES AND EUROPE I JUST REALIZED THAT AMERICA IS THE ONLY COUNTRY THAT DOES THIS
When Bedouins are on the move in deserts they don’t drink. They drink when encamped. They know something.
So they don’t have to stop to pee Lol

I dont pay Amazon taxes. Is your traveling medicine show wagon on ebay?
Yes I get your vitamin D with K2 from Amazon
I stop shopping on Amazon for many years! There are many counterfeit products with exact same name! I rather shop directly from your website Dr. Berg!
I had a buddy that qualified for the Olympics he was a runner he drank so much water he washed out his electrolytes‼️
Really? Barbara O’neal an expert in health and very healthy herself drinks a lot of water specially first thing in the morning. She runs a very popular health retreat I believe in New Zealand
Simple solution…switch back to natural animal fats which aid cellular fluid retention, and avoid engineered seed oils which do the reverse.
They forced us to drink water in boot camp, trying to prevent heat stroke in the South Carolina summer. One girl passed out while we were in field training and was convulsing a few minutes later. EMS took her.
Doctor once told me after I said I’m going to drink lots of water…careful you’ll blow out your kidneys!😏
They also didn’t wash their hands and died during childbirth.
I’ve noticed recently that whenever I eat healthy, my thirst is low or hardly there…HOWEVER whenever I eat unhealthy foods it cause me to be extremely thirsty
