Yes because it’s hard to understand the difference between constantly chugging water and drinking when one is thirsty. I mean they’re identical things.
It’s literally for nothing except yeah drink companies spent a lot of money convincing you thirst isn’t a reliable indicator of what your body needs. Super complicated stuff
Its not actually a reliable indicator in the elderly body. And aspiring endurance athletes, recreational runners and cyclists, or those that work outside in the heat need to preempt that shit. They should be drinking water, and electrolytes on longer bouts. You lose 0.5-1.5 liters of water per hour from sweat, and thirst can lag. You can become dehydrated before you even realize, and it can take a long time (up to 24 hours) to get back to normal levels.
Sedentary in a climate controlled room, sure, drink when you’re thirsty, I don’t care.
Yes, this is the exact falsehood people base all this on. I don’t care enough to argue about it or try to convince you because I know how these things go even when it’s not a topic that people have formed something of a religion about

The former of which is bad, of course, because… uhhh… something something companies.

Man, it’s a shame those companies are the only way we can get water. People who drink too much water are completely in their pockets 😔
I’m thirsty now. The people who paid you are responsible 👿
Ya know learning how to balance extreme thoughts ought to be a kindergartner skill. Thanks for reminding me it’s apparently somehow not one.
