I wonder how one cleans up a water spill. Using water? ;-0
Can we...can we still use it in agriculture? There are cubic metric tons of it coming down out of those grey puffy things up in the sky there, and I want to make sure it’s not ruining our grape vines.
>>And I thought our bureaucrats were morons.<<
Yea, right?
>>Wasn’t that the reason GatorAide was developed for athletes?<<
Perhaps, but the looney lawmakers placing a two year prison penalty for claiming water hydrates? Really? I mean seriously?
I know, it’s crazy but I actually have seen articles in the past concerning water requirements in which some claimed that a person could get the necessary water just from food. Personally I don’t believe it unless “food” includes some very thin soup. Also it depends on environment. I know one young man who majored in archeology and he talked of working on a dig in the summertime where he consumed FIVE GALLONS of water during the day and claimed that he did not urinate until he got home after work and spent some time in his air conditioned room. He said that during the day he would sweat out more water than he could consume.
interesting, thx for the info
glad it sounds like you are doing better?
ok, so people had better make sure they don’t try to live on coffee only ;^)
The EU house is on fire and they want to ban water.
Water does not cause hydration.
Debt and welfare state does not cause economic collapse.
EU has it all figured out. /s/
Yeah, it is dumb. But then I’ve never looked at any bottle water ingredients to see what the claim is. Every consumable I think has to have an ingredients label.
It has potassium too I think which is very important. You do heavy activities like biking and hiking you’re depleting electrolytes such as sodium and potassium. Actually electrolytes are ions in the water.
Well I can’t argue your experience. I do know that when you sweat heavily you’re loosing potassium and sodium which is essential for your health. Anyway, just saying. I think I may have gone overboard on this discussion since I was coming from an EMT position and am used to hydration IV packs.
What's even scarier-er is the ingredients that are added to consumables. Can't even have a candy bar or soft drink without monosodium this or phosphate that, hydrogenated this and sorgum that.
I just want some sugar, just sugar will ya... :)
Wow. Just Wow.
Stupid people with power.
I was remembering this dental story about how dentists were complaining their patients teeth were not as healthy as they should be because people were drinking bottled water where minerals were removed or something to that effect. I probably have gone a bit overboard since I’m coming from an EMT position where we carry hydration IV packs.
When I was a kid my mom would get mad at me for hitting the brown sugar box in the pantry. I would put brown sugar on just about anything or eat it out of the box.
You say that like it's funny.
The comments on the Telegraph site are pretty funny. Especially since they’re coming from a bunch of HATEFUL HYDRATION DENIERS!!
This has been identified as the principal failure of that sort of confederation which has never been tried again in the known universe.
We don’t need inorganic minerals? Are you sure that’s right?
Not using dihydrogen monoxide causes a horrible death from diaphoresis. This suggests many OWS folks have a limited time to live before diaphoresis will kill them and all folks near them dead. Be careful, diaphoresis is a killah!
Government by definition is the running of an enormously complex system that directly affects men, women and children by total incompetents.
