AboutSusan Lee Ottevanger, Wellness Coach Expertise There is nothing on earth more important than your
body, your health. With a little knowledge, there is
nothing in life you have more power, more control
over. If you are tired of feeling bad, stop eating
badly. Most of what we eat most of: only a human
mistakes this stuff for food. Distinguish real,
satisfying food from the mere flavored packing
material that keeps you hungry. If you`ve been on
every diet twice and are going crazy, I can give you a
path to Peace in the Kitchen.
Experience In the late '80's my weight up and down reached a crisis. Arthritus in my back made it painfull to move. Balancing blood sugar had me eating more often. Eating more, moving less, miserable. My doctor smiled, said "just move more and eat less". This from a medical professional about to burst his buttons. Not a working plan. I knew I had to write my own, so I started researching what was new to put with what sorta worked for me in the past. Eat protein, eat carbs, just not at the same time. Never go around hungry, listen to your body, it can tell you what it needs.
Question We all know that drinking water is beneficial to our health, but is it possible or unhealthy to drink too much water? How many liters is ideal for a 40 year old male? 1,8m tall and 80kg. 45 mins per day exercise, in hot, summer conditions as well as air conditioning.
Answer Hi Claire,
Yes it is possible, but it takes the extreme. At the Grand Canyon, people start a hike early in the morning when it is cool. Most hikes tend to be uphill in the cool, down when it gets hot. At the Canyon, people go down with lots of energy, then turn around and the real work begins. That is when you can drink so much water that it can trash your electrolytes. I bring bananas and raw nuts.
Drink lots. Best test: urine should be pale yellow.
