I think skin pinch test doesn't work for young people. I feel dehydrated most of the time, but my skin reverses back less than 1 sec.

[@lokeshpakala607]

Yeah it doesn't. It's a test done on kids when they have diarrhoea leading to excess loss of water.

[@disharai8840]

Yeah same here

[@notherepim]

Exactly, that test doesn't tell shi, I'm dehydrated af which I know as a fact because I never drink water, my skin came back in less than a second, now that doesn't tell anything ahah.

Thank you. Agree. Dr. Huberman, a Stanford neuroscientist, suggests 8 ounces every hour for the first 10 hours of one's day. I'm astounded at how much better I feel staying hydrated. Heed the advice of this young physician. Drink water and....quit alcohol!

[@maheruninamdar7270]

That tip was great

[@sngs9565]

True...8 glasses per day is good nevertheless, studies were conducted in the 1940s. Nowadays, many health experts also advise drinking when you are thirsty as well. The reason is, that consuming water does not mean replacing electrolytes, in fact dilutes quite an amount of sodium. You may drink 8 glasses of water per day yet do it intermittently, reducing its frequency (Dr Eric Berg)...Let's keep ourselves healthy!

[@RedLadyRush]

Good evening Doctor, could you please talk about gastritis and how to heal from it? Thank you for all the content that you give to us every day.

[@Nawab4286]

I drink 1 glass of water in a day. Skin test is normal. I am not sure why there are videos asking to drink 8 glasses. I don't drink tea / coffe / cold drink. I have 1 glass of milk.

[@mariamdarchia8722]

Do you eat lots of fruits and vegetables?

[@Yolk421]

Hi Doctor,,,
l am a medical student of Bangladesh...
l have been suffering from abdominal distension,belly fat, what can I do?
some times l try to eat healthy foods,my cravings for chocolate,junk food,l can not control...

[@royjohnson465]

~~For belly fat:: No sugar, and Low to No carbohydrates.
~~Eat “brown” Basmati rice and use 100% whole wheat (wholemeal) flour.
~~For good health:: No vegetable seed oils(“no” Canola, Corn, Soy, Sunflower, Safflower, Grapeseed, Cottonseed, & Rice Bran oils), and always drink a warm~hot drink along with eating meals.
~~Look up:: Keto (Ketogenic) Diet, and also Ketosis & Ketones for losing belly fat weight.

[@judyhyland499]

TY for this

[@angellee9307]

Half a gallon is the latest standard

[@teresitaturner4813]

Check your sodium level ,before you drink 65 Oz a day,because if you have low sodium you need to drink only when your thirsty ,it is important to limit your liquid intakes because having problem with low sodium is dangerous too, besides the medicare only pay the sodium tablets,but if the doctor prescribed you a powered sodium is to expensive it cost 95 cents per packet and the doctor will advice you 2 to 3 packet of Ure- Na.some patient can recovered and stabilize their sodium level if he followed the strict liquid intake ,you will have seizure problem,tremor problem balance problem,and you always feel weak

[@thebatman1889]

What if sodium is imbalance

[@CricketNewJersey]

Yes I have a tendency for low sodium so I have to be careful not to drink too much water

[@mehmoodakousar7165]

Hi! This is about my mom. She is suffering from a stomach problem which nobody is able to diagnose properly. We would have consulted 25 doctors at least across all types of medicines ( allopathy, siddha, homeopathy, psychiatric, ayurvedic anything you name it) I don’t have my father. He passed away due to cancer. I fear I am losing my mom as well. All her reports come back with mild acidity mostly. But she is not able to get through the day without pain/bloating or difficulty in breathing as whatever it is, it makes her restless. Please help 🙏🏻

That hand looked 70 years old . I'm 34 and nowhere near. My skin went instantly flat after the pinch. I drink water normally not excessively. Typically 6 bottles a day. 2 on the morning between 9 and 11am then 4 more for the remaining 8 hours of my day until dinner time and bed

Drinking more water doesn't necessarily mean being more hydrated. You also need salt/magnesium so that cells absorb the water.

I had a friend, once, and at school we sat together at lunch quite often, and mostly just chilled.
I was drinking water and she looks at me and asks, “Why do you drink so much water?”
I look at her with anxiety and realized I’ve never seen her drink water at school.
She thinks me drinking 3-6 bottles a day is a lot?
So I told her, “I’m not drinking a ton. This isn’t even a lot.”
“You’re always drinking water!”
…your never drinking water, friend…
Moral of the story; drink water!
