    1. The elderly drink more water to prevent aging, many elderly people do not have a strong desire to drink water, and always think that less exercise and less sweating can lead to less water. In fact, once a person reaches middle and old age, the water in the cells will be reduced by as much as three to four percent compared with that in youth. Because of this, most of the middle-aged and elderly people will have wrinkles, if they can't fully replenish water, not only will the wrinkles worsen, but also affect the normal urination.

    Therefore, the elderly actually have an urgent need to replenish water. In fact, there are many ways to replenish water, and the advice of authoritative nutritionists is: boil vegetables and fruits in soup, drink tea (strong tea is not suitable), drink cold boiled water, etc.

    It is worth noting that if the elderly can drink a glass of cold boiled water after getting up in the morning, it is very helpful to the body. Because after a night's sleep, the body consumes a lot of water from sweating, urination, and breathing, the blood becomes thicker, and the lumen of the blood vessels narrows due to the reduction of blood flow. This will easily cause accidents such as cardiovascular and cerebrovascular embolism.

    The elderly are at high risk of this type of disease. Therefore, supplementing water at the right time and in the right amount can not only reduce blood consistency, promote the dilation of blood vessels, but also have the function of clearing the gastrointestinal tract, thereby helping digestion and preventing constipation. As for the amount of water intake, it depends on the physical condition of the elderly, and it is best to have a small amount and more times.

    For the elderly, the water intake should not be too much each time, so as not to increase the burden on the heart, kidneys and other organs; In addition, although middle-aged and elderly people sweat a lot after labor or exercise, they should not drink a lot of water. 2, but you should also pay attention, because the typical manifestation of diabetes is "three more and one less" - polydipsia, polyphagia, polyuria, but weight loss. Not all of them have this symptom, but I think it's better for you to be careful!!

    Better go check it out!! Hope the above can satisfy you!!

    You may have hyperosmolar dehydration, which is called dehydration. It is usually caused by the body losing water and salt, such as sweating profusely. In this case, you drink plenty of water not only does not relieve the symptoms of thirst, but worsens it.

    In the case of hypertonic water loss, 5% glucose solution can be supplemented, because 5% glucose solution is an isotonic solution like normal saline, and the normal morphology of cells will not be affected after supplementation, but the hypertonic state can be corrected because glucose is used by cells after supplementation.

    Therefore, after supplementing with 5% glucose solution, normal saline should also be supplemented. Glucose solution should also be available in pharmacies. If you are troublesome, you can brew a glass of sugar water and a glass of salt water directly at home.
