事件记录
面试官: In the summertime, everybody's thinking about water, but what about the winter? 你需要冬天的水. 为什么? We'll examine that next on 范围.
男人: Medical news and research from the University of Utah physicians and specialists you can use for a happier and healthier life. 您正在收听的是范围.
面试官: Over 90 percent of your body is water, 这并不太难, 通常, to get the amount of water you need in the summertime because you're hot and you're sweaty. 在冬天, it could be a little bit more difficult, but water is just as important in the winter as it is in the summer.
We're with Julie Metos, Registered Dietitian at the University of Utah. Let's talk about winter water and the importance of still staying hydrated in the wintertime.
朱莉换上: 确定. 好吧, everybody knows you need six to eight glasses of water per day, 在夏天, you can kind of see yourself perspiring and that it gets evaporated. Sometimes, you even get that white coat on your skin around your mouth. So you kind of realize every day you need water.
但在冬天, 这是发生, 太, 保持警惕, keep your New Year's resolution, be a productive worker at your job, you still need all of that water.
面试官: So water in the wintertime, people don't drink it, but we're still perspiring in the wintertime?
朱莉换上: 这是正确的. You're still perspiring, and you still need to feel alert. What I've learned lately is if you're even just a little bit dehydrated, your mental health or the way that you function can be impaired.
面试官: 真的?
朱莉换上: 是的.
面试官: So I can get kind of groggy, and it's not because of food. 这是因为水?
朱莉换上: 是的. 完全. 想想看. It's 2:00 or 3:00 time in the afternoon where you're, like, "Geez, I want to go home and take a nap." Maybe if you go have a big glass of water, you might just have a little pick-me-up.
面试官: 感冒怎么办？? Everybody always says, "You get a lot of rest. Eat a lot, and drink lots of water."
朱莉换上: 正确的.
面试官: 为什么 is it important to drink water when you're sick?
朱莉换上: 嗯，有几个原因. One is you might have a slight fever, which makes your need for water go up. The second is if you have a cold and you have all that mucous your head, 你感冒了, 或者它在你的肺里, 它有助于稀释粘液. So you can put a steamer in your room or drink more water. 所有 of those are good for making you feel just a little bit better.
面试官: 一个船? Does that help, actually, to get water into your body?
朱莉换上: 好吧, it gets water into your nasal passages and into your lungs, so that's another way of getting it in there.
面试官: 理解. So it used to be at one point when you figured out how much water you should drink, you were not supposed to count fruits and vegetables. 现在不是这样了?
朱莉换上: No. 真的, you get quite a lot of water from your food. Sometimes, up to about a third of your water needs can be met with very water dense foods. You mentioned fruits and vegetables, but even things like 咖啡 和茶, we count now. 任何饮料.
The only beverage, of course, that I'm against are soft drinks. I don't count those because they have 太 much of that ugly sugar in them, so you want pure water. 纯净水是最好的. If you need a little flavor, maybe a little squeeze of orange, lemon, or lime to get it down. But, really, something that has just pure, natural water is the very best for your health.
面试官: Like, a Crystal Light additive, is that not the best thing for you?
朱莉换上: 好吧. 好吧, I'm going to give that the B grade.
面试官: 好吧.
朱莉换上: But the A grade stays for water, okay?
面试官: 我的问题是, “水对大发娱乐来说非常重要, 但是作为人类, 永远, we've been inventing ways to make it taste better. 这是为什么？?"
朱莉换上: 是的，那是真的. 这是真的. 好吧, the tip is that cold water always tastes better to people. But it always tastes better to have it in some type of hot beverage, 太, in the winter. And so things like hot chocolate, 咖啡, 和茶, maybe herbal tea if that's your preference, those are all fine once or twice a day.
面试官: 好吧.
朱莉换上: But, remember, water's the very best number one beverage of choice.
面试官: 这是你能得到的最纯净的形式.
朱莉换上: 这是最好的.
男人: We're your daily dose of science, conversation, medicine. This is 范围, the University of Utah Health Sciences Radio.
