Turpentine baths

You're eating? This is it!

If you have an ordinary Russians porassprosit, he spent nearly two weeks of the holiday season, a typical story would look something like this: "Twenty-Ninth observed at work. Thirtieth cleaned the apartment, the evening went to Aunt Masha - congratulations in advance, until she went to the village. Thirty-first of the six houses covered table. They sat down, ate, spent a year old. They began to watch television, send guests salad, vodka, salad ... More And then they beat and chimes: sat, ate salad, vodka, chicken from the oven ... First woke in the afternoon, and sat down to eat yesterday. By the evening - the neighbors with champagne and cognac. Second went to visit Gale - sat down to eat ... Third went to a restaurant. Fourth went to the cottage, melted bath nazharili kebabs. They sat down to eat ... "But it was still ahead of Christmas, the father-mother-in-law but at a party, Christmas Eve, my brother came from the North, half-eaten eaten ... Phew!

After the New Year many of us probably feel bloated after having gorged itself, and - and how to stay if you that every day, the guests and the meal? Of course, overeat. Of course, drinking ... and, of course, now feels that the body is not happy with such a regime. However, what it depends on the fact that the same people who ate the same food and drank the same alcohol, then feel, to say differently? Someone in the morning, "cucumber", ready to run for a walk or on business, but someone's head cotton, abdominal sea urchins, turtle eyes and hands shaking?

Paradoxically, most often it is not due to quality and freshness of alcohol festive dishes, and in violation of the humoral regulation, in other words - the water-salt metabolism.

Without water, no amplitude or syudy ...

Have you ever noticed how a holiday is served (and normal) in the table of European restaurants? In addition to proper utensils, appliances and food on the table is always, without fail, is a pitcher or a bottle of very ordinary water. As a rule - just a good filter, filtered and chilled.Simple water - tested, the best and most reliable support for any meal, no matter what you eat and drink.

When we first began to publish articles, details about the benefits of the most common of clean water to our site began to receive feedback from those who listened to the advice. In the New Year's days, incidentally, also came. Spouses and Vadim Dasha from Chelyabinsk write this: "Well, what time you read about the role of water for health. We have time to realize that reducing alcohol intoxication and hangover can be avoided by drinking water during the meal. Familiar doctor said that for every sip of alcohol shall be at two simple sip of clean water. And we put on the table pretty jars with plain water, which was filtered in the usual pitcher "Aquaphor" thrown in her ice cubes (ice, incidentally, also made from filtered water, and it came out perfectly clear!) And in the process of drinking-biting poured his large glasses of water. Specially arranged such an experiment, we decided to check whether water is "working"! It seems to be drank and ate a lot, honestly say - and Olivier was, and salads, and pork with potatoes ... But the next morning woke up with an excellent state of health is likely to play a run in the snowball fight! Incidentally, the brother of her husband we do not believe it, drank vodka, soda and food, "Tarragon" and the mineral water and got up the next morning with a hangover ... "

It would seem, too, soda and mineral water water, soft drinks - so why are they not able to adjust the water balance of the body as regular water? Let's deal.

Gas, sugar and salt alter the properties of the water!

If you pick up a bottle of very sweet fizzy drink any, regardless of its brands and prices, and read the label, then you can see that it consists of drinking water, sugar or sweetener (in this act as aspartame, saccharin and other chemical compounds) and carbon dioxide. Also, they may contain coloring agents, flavoring compositions (natural or nature identical), and plant extracts. In general, all components of our body long familiar, and not just on drinks. But why do these drinks do not help make up for fluid loss and to ensure normal water-salt metabolism?Veronica Gorbunov, a gastroenterologist, a doctor of higher category, explains: "During the holiday feasts, especially in the format in which they usually take place in Russia - with a heterogeneous alcohol, heavy mayonnaise salads, fat meat, lots of pickles and smoked - it is necessary, to the table stood a plain clean water. Alas, most of our fellow citizens believe that during the feast, all beverages, including soft drinks, must necessarily be a "holiday" - that is desirable sweet and fizzy. That's why on the table in abundance are lemonades, colas, juices, fruit drinks and fruit drinks, sometimes - therapeutic mineral water. But all of these drinks, especially when combined with alcohol and heavy food, only worsen the situation and increase the alcohol intoxication. In what way? It's simple: sweet soda in conjunction with any alcohol enhances and accelerates its absorption into the bloodstream, and together with harmful fractions. In this case the sugar contained in the lemonade and kolah, overloading an already tormented with alcohol and fatty foods pancreas. A therapeutic mineral water - it's not a drink, and medicine, also has a number of contraindications and allowable dosage. If, during the big meal to wash down this food with water, it will cause a real impact on gastric secretory function, as the liver and gall bladder operation. "

In addition, no drink, except plain water, can not cope with such an important function as the provision of timely, as it were, removing "waste products". As we know from school, the fiber contained in food and fiber in contact with water increases in volume, take a soft texture and leave the body much faster than the shortage of water. Carbonated water, juices, soft drinks, kvass and cranberry virtually no effect on the state of the fiber itself - which is why all eaten and drunk during the holidays is retained in the body longer than necessary, and causes poor health.Bloating, flatulence, belching, stomach pain, problems with a chair - all this is a consequence of dehydration ...

Tips for the future

And yet - how much water to drink during these "festive marathons?" First of all - will determine the water. Ironically, the best choice - it is the water that is constantly present in your daily life, just passed through a quality filter (flow, pitchers) with a good cartridge. Ideally, the filter element cartridge - Akvalit because it removes everything harmful compounds and impurities. Alas, bottled water, taken from the water, quite unprofitable - it is, of course, there is no bacteria, but full of a variety of chemical compounds that are in the process of boiling, did not disappear. And bottled water is a danger primarily to the fact that there is absolutely no guarantee that it is the one for whom she claims to be: as we know, the market is now filled with water forgeries, including the - a health hazard.

Of course, during the feast, and indeed, pleasant to drink very cold water. Namorozte plenty of ice cubes, and using filtered water, and, as appropriate Serve them on a table in a vase or glass bowl. And do not forget to constantly pour yourself and neighbors on the table in the water glasses. As a general rule, after each toast always sip from a glass of water 100 - 150 ml, and, of course, do not forget a snack. In general, such a calculation - a full dinner, consisting of several dense salads, roast beef, a few servings of alcohol to drink at least 3 - 4 full glasses of pure filtered water.
