Can anyone explain the drinking shitloads of water thing?
I know there was some guff science saying drink two litres or something like 20 years ago, and at the same time yeah we should be hydrated
But is there a new angle to this that I am miss in my old fart ways?
Is it like fitbits? The adverts show a lean beautiful person, but the target demographic are potato people? If you are a little spud-u-like that’s cool I’m just trying to highlight the disparity.
Anyway what’s with the giant water bottles. Is it about pissing? Do they drink to piss every 15 mins? Plz explain

The things that look like they belong upside down on a water cooler?
It's just more gym fashion like Gymshark/fitness brand crap right?

Very much not pier reviewed, nor
but ime drinking a lot of water improved my skin.But it's just such a faff to drink loads and go to the toilet all the time. Plus my skin is acceptable as is.

We have a couple of TikTok-ers at my work. They spend more time in front of the mirror or filming themselves than anything else.
They Must get something out of it other than just a few likes from total strangers -

It's bullshit, but bullshitters always want to go one better than the last bullshitter. I used to see this on strength training forums, where somebody would be talking about the importance of hydration and the gym bros would out-boast each other about how much you were supposed to drink till somebody said "You have to keep drinking water till your piss is as clear as the water you were drinking".
It's stupid and unhealthy. Making yourself have to piss that much drains your body of salt and other minerals.

As someone who routinely gets into a hyperfixation and doesn't drink water all day and then wonders why I have a banging headache and am lethargic, I find having one of said big jugs in my room or with me most of the day stops this from happening.

But it also drain the toxins. Right?

Remember going to school and one blue drink being my only hydration all day, even if we played football for an hour at lunch and had PE. I was fine.
I drink more now but maybe only a pint of squash and a cup of tea during the day.

I did this traditional for of king Fu for a few years. In the old manuals translated to English in the 50s it said you only need one small cup of tea a day. No water especially cold water.
The adherents to this piece of insanity were easy pickings by the end of a long day training. All wobbly and tunnel visioned

While living in Asia for a few years, I learned to stopp drinking chilled water. Tepid/slightly warm is far better.

The 2 liters of water is a random quote, especially as how can that be the same for an office worker in an air conditioned environment compared to someone more active and sweating.
You need to go by the colour of your pee.
As for the bottle thing, fashion thing maybe.

How did your skin improve? As I'd like to know.
I drink a lot of water due to one of the meds I take (middle age thread) so drink lots of water as I'm always thirsty. -
