How water much are you drinking?

ammonia smell in urine

Since starting Iodoral, I have a VERY strong ammonia smell in my urine and on my underwear. Could this be related to the detox that is happening? Anyone have any ideas?

Funny you should ask about my water intake because that is a big part of my symptomatology. I am never ever thirsty and I know this is part of my endocrine problems. I only drink when I must mix my ultimate alkalizer powder into some water to get it into me or when I have to mix my vitamin C powder in water to get it into me. Other than that, I drink one or two cups of green tea per day. I am never ever thirsty and would have to force myself to drink more water. Do you think this ammonia stuff is from dehydration?

You are not drinking enough at all! You will not be thirsty if severely dehydrated. You will be tired, achy and your body will not detoxify the junk out. Your adrenals will struggle as well. You should be drinking at least 3 quarts a day - more if you are overweight. You should take your weight and divide it in 2. That is the number of ozs you should be drinking. I had to force myself to do it in the beginning. I didn't drink much all day. Cup of coffee and maybe some juice. Nothing other than that. I was very dehydrated when my Dr tested me.

mentioned the possibility of dehydration, and it's likely. I

would say there's no question, you are dehydrated, but one must be careful

of adrenal status.

I'll say if one has an adrenal problem they will be dehydrated regardless or

water intake. It tends to cause frequent urination (not always, but the

closer you get to 's Disease level, the more likely it is) , and the

more water one drinks, the more it simply gets excreted.

People running marathons have died because they've sweated out their salt,

and drink too much water. You need sodium to live. (You need cholesterol

to live too, but they'll be happy to lower it with statins.)

That's why some with low adrenals don't like to drink water. That and the

fact, the more water they drink, the further the sodium balance is depleted,

even if it looks normal on labs, it may not be so.

I never felt when I drank water that it was actually hydrating me, because

it wasn't. I was never really thirsty either. I just drank water because I

was supposed to. So, I would take some to my desk and sip a little bit at a

time.

It's really not healthy for someone with low adrenals to drink excessive

amounts of water, as this just depletes the sodium, and makes them feel

worse.

I have to add in here, I was one that for about 30 years NEVER drank water. I

hated the taste of it. I tried all kinds and only when I started taking sea salt

at 1/2-1 tsp twice a day did water start tasting good to me. I now drink about 3

quarts a day and even though my adrenals are healed, I still take sea salt in OJ

1/2 tsp every morning, and this keeps me hydrated and feeling healthy.

I also never drank water, and I was puffed up with edema, hypo poster child. The miracle for me was Armour thyroid. For the first time I was thirsty and also sweated.

Tell me about it. I love my water juice tea and coffee. For the last

2 years I have had low sodium and am in the bathroom every hour at

least.Fluids may lower my sodium more but to go without is worse.I

finally ordered iosocort this morning to see if this is adreal or

not.I don't have any hyper symptoms and am up to 2 1/2 grains of

armour after only 5 weeks.Because of lack of symtoms I didn't think

this was adrenal.Yesterday though I did feel a little shaky, I just

figured this was 1 to many coffees I guess I was wrong.How bad is the

caffine when your taking armour? Thanks

You sure seem extemely dehydrated to me. 3 quarts of water a day is

good for someone weighing 200 pounds. Not in tea, with vitamin C, or

other powders. But 3 full quarts of pure water each and every day.

In the hot summer months, I drink 6 quarts of water.

Exuding ammonia smell is what precipitated my health issues. I even developed a

tear in my

cartilage in my knee... I was so dehydrated it turns out that my joints even

became dried out. I

bought a body water % sensing scale by Soehnle called the RIO. It takes the

guessing out of the

equation. It is the best health tracking device I have ever bought. It costs

about $99. It also

checks body fat % and muscle %. Salt and minerals allowed the cells to retain

the water clearly

shown with the use of this scale.
