WATER and YOUR BODY
          BET YOU DIDN'T KNOW "THIS" !!!

How many folks do you know who say they don't
want to drink anything before going to bed because
they'll have to get up during the night!!

Something else I didn't know ... I asked my Doctor
why do people need to urinate so much at night time.

Answer from my Cardiac Doctor:

Gravity holds water in the lower part of your body when
you are upright   (legs swell).

When you lie down and the lower body (legs, etc.) is
level with the kidneys, it is then that the kidneys remove
the water because it is easier.

This then ties in with the last statement!

I knew you need your minimum water to help flush the
toxins out of your body, but this was news to me.

Correct time to drink water...
Very Important. From A Cardiac Specialist!
 
Drinking water at a certain time maximizes its
effectiveness on the body:

2 glasses of water after waking up -
   helps activate internal organs

1 glass of water 30 minutes before a meal -
   helps digestion

1 glass of water before taking a bath -
   helps lower blood pressure 

(who knew that ???)

1 glass of water before going to bed -
avoids stroke or heart attack 

(good to know!)

I can also add to this... My Physician told me that
water at bed time will also help prevent night time 
leg cramps.
Your leg muscles are seeking hydration when
they cramp and wake you up with a Charlie Horse.  

(this I know for sure!)

A Cardiologist has stated that if people would share
this information.. and people would "use" this info
many lives would be saved.

How about sending this to your list
and everyone you know.
