Why do people take for granted water and dont drink it as much when others need it? -

I notice people are so obsessed with coke and all this other sh**less drinks that are bad for you. We don t drink as much water, don t realise that water is medicine. I was a reading a book called quot;Your Body s Many Cries for Waterquot;. Now I appriciate water but I notice other don t which is sad because we have the resource when others don t. FROM the book: As a result of extensive research into the role of water in the body, the author, a medical doctor, believes that he has found chronic dehydration to be the cause of many conditions including asthma, allergies, arthritis, angina, migraine headaches, hypertension, raised cholesterol, chronic fatigue syndrome, multiple sclerosis, depression, and diabetes in the elderly.

Let me tell you, I read this book too, something like 2 years ago, and since than I accustomed myself to drink at least 2 liters of water per day, and sometimes even more. I hear many times people complaining they are thirsty, and then begin searching for a coke or other artificial drinks. People exchange water by tea, coffee and other drinks.. Most of them don t know that coffee dehydrates the body, taking away calcium and body liquids. Others artificial drinks are so unnatural, containing food colors and other chemical materials, that damage the human body. Our body lacks water, and people think they will complete its shortcome by all those quot;poisonedquot; cokes and sprites. Terrible, what can I say.

Im sorry to break the news to you guys but, We live in the modern world. We have faster and better ways to clean undrinkable water now. We cant run out. All that running out of water mess was like, 14 years ago. But to answer your question. Soda tastes better than regular drinking water. some people like water, some people like pepsi. we do have more soda lovers, cuz it taste better.

In the future, wars will be fought over water, and I guess this is true to some extent today. People in wealthy society like the US take a lot of things for granted, water being one of them. It s good that you know about this. Spread the word!

People don t realise what s the best for them.They depend only upon their taste and just to show that they are quite mordenized. People will not realise it until they are dying for water. They think these drinks are more cheaper than a bottle of water but they don t think about the amount of water they are wasting without any cost.

Well, these people will pay the price with their health. Water is like oil for an engine-it can run low but it damages the motor over time.

well i know people who prefer to buy coke, soft drinks etc because they say that its cheaper than bottled water. and some people dont drink it out of the tap if they live in metro areas where the water is treated coz they dont like the metallic taste from the chemicals. i personally think those are stupid reasons. just pay the extra $1 for bottled water if you have to

I guess people don t realize what they have until it s gone.
