We are all know that we should drink at least 2 litres or eight glasses of water every day to stay healthy and fit. About 60 per cent of our body is made up of water, which makes it essential for human beings. Water helps to carry nutrients to the cells and different parts in our body. Water allows the body to absorb minerals, vitamins, amino acids, glucose and flushes out toxins and waste meterials from out body. But many people find it hard to drink the recommended amount of watr every day. The scientist are take a research on it what happens when we drink water to our brain. On a study they suggests that one should drink water only when feeling thirsty. They concluded this after discovering a mechanism that makes drinking excess water a challenging task. The finding were published in the preceedidngs of the National Academy of Sciences.
For the study, the team enrolled several participants and asked them to drink a large amount of water under two conditions. First immediately after their workout, when they were thirsty and secondly later in the day when they were not that thirst. In both situations, they asked the participants to rate how difficult it was to swallw the water. At last, it was revealed that participants found it three times more difficult to guzzle water when they were not thirsty.
Later, the researchers imaging on each of the participant to measure brain activity just before they swallowed water in both circumstances. They found out that some areas of the right prefrontal cortex of the brain were highly active when participants forcefully drank the water. This suggests that this region of the brain repeal the swallowing inhibition to allow excess water consumption.The study suggests that we should drink according to our thirst. Don't drink soft drinks are other drinks only drink water it is hundred per cent healthy to our body.
