Influence of water drinking on resting energy expenditure in overweight children.
BACKGROUND: It was previously demonstrated that drinking water significantly elevates the resting energy expenditure(REE) in adults, and that low water intake is associated with obesity and lesser success in weight reduction. This study addressed the [...]
“Pilot study: Effects of drinking hydrogen-rich water on muscle fatigue caused by acute exercise in elite athletes.”
"BACKGROUND: Muscle contraction during short intervals of intense exercise causes oxidative stress, which can play a role in the development of overtraining symptoms, including increased fatigue, resulting in muscle microinjury or inflammation. Recently it has [...]
Problem: thirst, drinking behavior, and involuntary dehydration.
The phenomenon of involuntary dehydration, the delay in full restoration of a body water deficit by drinking, has been described extensively but relatively little is known about its physiological mechanism. It occurs primarily in humans when they are [...]
Effect of aging on regional cerebral blood flow responses associated with osmoticthirst and its satiation by water drinking: a PET study.
Levels of thirst and ad libitum drinking decrease with advancing age, making older people vulnerable to dehydration. This study investigated age-related changes in brain responses to thirst and drinking in healthy men. Thirst was induced with hypertonic infusions (3.1 ml/kg 0.51M NaCl) in young (Y) and older (O) [...]
