Re: Chronic lack of thirst?

Yes Kyla, I am just like you. I don't like to drink anything and

especially water. I am almost never thirsty.

Water carries off toxins, carries nutrients to the cells and lubricates

the joints. Anybody who does not drink adequate amounts of water daily

is setting himself up for major problems down the line.

Hi Ethel,

I think what Kyla means is that is pure torture for a few of us to get

our daily water in because we don't like to drink and never get thirsty.

A few people I work with and even my hubby need to have something to

drink all of the time but. Its no problem for them to drink lots of

water. I on the other hand really have to push to drink anything even

soft drinks or tea. Never drink coffee.

But we do drink water because its recommended on thisprotocol!!!

Kyla,

I thought I was the only one like that. While everyone else drinks

something with their meal, I rarely want anything. I too make a concious

effort to drink water or juice just because I know I should T.

Hi Kyla,

That's a bit worrying actually and I'd say you're chronically dehydrated.

Starving people don't feel hungry after a while and couldn't eat a normal meal

if offered to them.

I'd get a big bottle and measure say, 4 glasses of water into it and then sip it

slowly all day and make sure you drink it all. As your tissues take in the water

you'll probably start to feel thirsty and then can put up your water intake to 8

glasses a day, the amount recommended for normal body functioning.

Tea and coffee don't cut it as they're diuretics. My husband was a carer for a

disabled person who limited his fluid intake to two cups of tea a day so that he

wouldn't have to get out of his wheelchair. While it's easy to understand his

motivation, he refused to believe that the lack of water would make him ill. He

eventually ended up in the emergency room of the local hospital with severe

dehydration and had to be put on a drip for several days.

Chris.

I hear all the time about people with excessive hunger, lack of

hunger and excessive thirst...but rarely do I ever hear of people

having a total lack of thirst. For many years now, I have had the

problem of having a very poor thirst. I can go all day without

drinking any fluids, except for the odd cup of coffee or two.

Somedays I go all day and drink absolutely nothing. Not because I

choose to, but because my body just doesn't get thirsty. At the

end of the day, I have to force myself to drink a bottle or two

of water, leaving my stomach very bloated and upset.

I know this is weird, but when I pour a 4 oz glass of water, it is very easy

to drink. So I do that, then pour another and drink that. If I pour an 8

oz glass of water and try to drink it all at once, it is hard to do. Is

that weird or what? But it's a thought - you might try that as well.

Kyla,

Yes, I have the same experience. But lately my new dr is so adamant that I

drink as much water as possible that I have finally begun to get used to it

and it doesn't affect me now. I drink as much as I can in the evening and i

am starting to walk again!! I have RA. So now I am a believer!!! If that is

all it takes...I can do it. Have you ever read the book " Your bodies various

cries for water " ? Good book.

Do any of you experience an almost complete lack of thirst?

Perhaps it's more common than I think?
