Until a few years ago, most nutritionists recommended high-carb, low-fat diets for those who wanted to lose weight. This is just a small example… In general, everyone speaks with confidence that what comes out of their mouth is true. Apart from specific information such as exercising is important for a healthy life, being overweight is unhealthy, and insomnia is bad for health, there is a lot of misinformation spread from ear to ear. Health theories based on nothing are too numerous to count…
HOW MUCH WATER SHOULD BE DRINKED?
The research on the health effects of not drinking water is clear: You will die! But things get complicated when you try to determine how much water someone needs each day for good health. The general consensus is “drink at least 8 glasses of water a day” which is not a bad thing, but if you ask anyone why you should drink water, they may not actually know.
The real answer is this: Drinking a certain amount of water doesn’t seem to have any health benefits. It doesn’t make your kidneys work better or flush out toxins. How much water you need per day depends on many different things, such as temperature, how much exercise you get, and how much water is in the food you eat, but it’s usually not something you need to plan for.
IS COFFEE GOOD OR BAD?
Studies show that coffee drinkers are less likely to develop prostate and other cancers, but caffeine does cause anxiety. Coffee may aid weight loss, but it can also raise our “bad” cholesterol levels. It helps us perform better physically, but makes us sleep worse. So is coffee good or bad? You decide this now.
