Do you often drink mineral water to get stones

Mineral water is the water we often drink in our daily life. Mineral water is rich in minerals and can provide trace elements for human body. But we often hear that drinking mineral water can lead to stone, is it true? How about drinking mineral water? Let's have a look.

Is drinking mineral water easy to get stones

No, there are many reasons for getting stones, but drinking mineral water alone does not necessarily lead to stones.

1. "Incrustation" in teapot is a simple physical phenomenon, which is different from "suffering from urinary calculus". After the mineral water is boiled, calcium and magnesium ions in the water combine with carbonic acid to form some insoluble substances, which is called scaling. Therefore, we suggest that "natural mineral water" should be drunk at normal temperature.

2. "Urinary calculi" belongs to pathological state and is a complex physiological and biochemical process. Pathological stones are mainly composed of epithelial cells, clots in organs, cell colonies, phosphates, oxalates, urate, etc., so these "stones" are not simply physical calcified stones.

3. Regular drinking of mineral water can wash the urinary system, dilute the urine, wash the kidney, ureter and bladder, prevent inflammation and make the internal environment unfavorable to the occurrence of stones; mineral water can alkalize the urine, prevent crystal salt from escaping and dissolve the stones.

4. Mineral water can supplement magnesium ions, which can form substances not absorbed by blood with excessive calcium ions in the body, and then be discharged out of the body through intestines.

5. Mineral water can dilute the blood, reduce the blood viscosity, reduce the concentration of harmful substances in the blood, protect the liver, promote bile drainage, and prevent stones. In short, regular drinking of mineral water, not only will not induce stones, but also play a role in prevention and treatment.

Is it better to drink mineral water or boiled water

Both of them are OK. Water is good for people's health, but there is no difference between them.

1. Water is not the only source of minerals the body needs. The demand for minerals is relatively low. Various minerals and trace elements are widely found in various foods, such as grains, beans, fruits, vegetables and nuts.

2. As long as we have a balanced diet and a normal and reasonable diet, the mineral intake can completely meet the needs. Only for special reasons, people who need to supplement certain elements should strengthen the intake of certain minerals under the supervision of doctors.

3. Lukewarm boiled water can improve the activity of LDH in organs, which is beneficial to reduce the 'fatigue element' - lactic acid accumulated in muscles, so as to eliminate fatigue and rejuvenate spirit.

4. Boiled water can not only quench thirst, but also promote metabolism, regulate body temperature, increase hemoglobin content in blood, improve immune function and disease resistance.

5. Functional drinks are easy to affect ingestion and digestion and absorption of food, resulting in malnutrition, some contain caffeine and other components that stimulate the central nervous system, so children and the elderly should be careful to use functional drinks, even if the ordinary people drink functional drinks for a long time, it is also bad for health, because the sugar in the drinks can inhibit the ingestion center of the human body, which is easy to cause dehydration.

Precautions for daily drinking

1. The urine is colorless, transparent or light yellow - sufficient water, which can supplement a small amount of water; the urine is dark yellow - which means lack of water, which should be supplemented with a large amount of water; the urine is very thick and has a small amount of urine - which means serious water shortage, which requires medical treatment.

2. According to the principle, the human body needs to take in about 2 liters of water every day, that is to say, "8 cups of water" is enough. But it's not that everyone should drink 8 glasses of water every day. Sometimes it's hot, cold, sweaty and so on. They need more water.

3. Half a glass of water before going to bed can protect your heart! Because of the lack of water in the body, there will be blood concentration, slow flow, and less blood entering the heart, which may lead to chest tightness, suffocation and other symptoms of angina. If before going to bed, or at night to supplement the right amount of water, reduce blood concentration, can to some extent avoid angina.

4. Be sure to drink water before exercise so that you can perform better during exercise. When there is enough water in the blood, muscles and cells can get more oxygen and nutrients, which is not easy to fatigue.

5. When drinking, you should drink more water. There are diuretic ingredients in alcohol, which can dilate blood vessels, raise body temperature and cause water shortage. Therefore, drinking more water can reduce the discomfort of thirst after drinking.

6. It is best to boil the water after dark, because the water quality is the best at this time.
