What app can you not live without?
(lemmy.world)
Since there are so many great apps out there, I want to ask the ever-so-important question: Which one is absolutely essential to your daily life?
I'll go first: Waterllama! I started using it a few months ago because I really like to know precisely what and how much I drink each day, especially during the summer.
I'd love to hear about the app you use the most and why it's so important to you. And if you have any tips or tricks for getting the most out of the app, I'd love to hear those too!
Except drinking all the time also has proven drawbacks. In proffessional sports, drinking too much plain water is known to be detrimental to performance.
You do not sweat nearly enough to warrant the multiple glasses of water the average school teacher makes kids drink in PE nowadays. Even though you do get thirsty.
What your body actually needs, are the salts and other minerals you just sweated out, which was the whole point that created Gatorade.
Also a lot of the research that claims thirst to be "too late" in telling you when to drink, is funded by companies that sell bottled water.
