I am 72. I was dehydrated for years, without knowing it. BP high, urine color dark When I began hydrating (1/2 my pound weight = ounces of water per day) my urine lightened, my BP normalized, I could read without glasses (still do, except those damned phone books) My kidneys would "clench" with minor pains. Dehydration can eventually destroy them. Back then, I never felt thirsty. When dehydration becomes chronic, that is often the case. Please, stop talking opinions and start to read some good information www.watercure.com and www.watercure2.com are good places to start. As we get older, more and more people become chronically dehydrated. But they don't feel thirsty. Here are 13 symptoms: http://www.care2.com/greenliving/13-symptoms-of-chronic-dehydratio n.html Judy Down Maine

If you don't feel thirsty then I wouldn't have thought it would be necessary to drink; the same as if you are not hungry, then you don't (or shouldn't), eat. Isn't there something about overloading kidneys if you drink too much?

Your body needs water to function at all. Your body even needs water to breathe. Try fogging up a mirror with no water in your system. Faith G. No virus found in this outgoing message.
