Drinking Water and Dementia

Pitje vode in demenca

Ali ste vedeli, da skoraj polovica Američanov pije manj kot štiri kozarce vode na dan? Noro, kajne? Izkazalo se je, da je dehidracija velik problem, ko gre za staranje in zdravje. Študije kažejo, da lahko dehidracija pospeši krčenje možganov, kar je pogosta značilnost staranja in demence. MRI pregledi so celo pokazali, da se lahko več delov možganov ob dehidraciji zdi tanjših in zmanjša njihov volumen.

In še to - že rahlo zmanjšanje vnosa vode, na primer za 3 ali 4 odstotke, lahko takoj vpliva na ravnovesje tekočin v možganih. To lahko povzroči simptome, kot so utrujenost, glavoboli, meglenje možganov, nihanje razpoloženja in zmanjšanje ravni energije.

Ampak brez skrbi! Dobra novica je, da lahko učinke dehidracije obrnete v samo nekaj dneh preprosto s tem, da pijete več vode. Splošno pravilo je, da pijete osem 8-unčnih kozarcev vode na dan, kar ustreza približno dvema litroma.
