I am a former player and now coach. Let’s say the players are in a game or strenuous football practice for 3 hours in 100 degree heat, are you saying the common guzzling of plain water is problematic in these circumstances for youthful athletes or should they drink fruit juice instead? (milk wouldn’t work in the heat). Or gatorade would work fine too?
Reading this article makes me cringe many years ago I dieted for 3 months with an acid/alkaline pesce-vegetarian diet and they recommended a gallon a day of water! No wonder I was cold all the time during that weight loss. I have put my body through a lot experimenting! I have also drank probably 1/2 gallon many days over the years as a lasting after effect psychologically following the general advice.
Thanks for putting the nail in that coffin stupid idea!
If it were me, I would drink oj or milk with salt and sugar, or even gatorade or water with added electrolytes …anything but large amounts of plain water.
