Answers:
She means too much liquid!. Water will be the main component of anything you drink - whether it is tea or juice - it is mainly water!. You don't need nearly as much liquid as once thought - in fact it is bad for you as it leeches all the nutrients from your body!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

The heat probably makes you sweat which makes you thirsty, its probably a better approach to do a cool activity like swimming in a pool or getting more of the water on you than in you lol!. Oh! and theres these really nice fans that spray you with water, when its really hot you can go into the pattio or stay in ur house but like with a towel around the carpet ( so it doesnt get wet ) they feel sooooo cool and refreshing, thatd probably lower your desire for water!. If your still thirsty fruit juice is the healthy alternative!. Www@FoodAQ@Com

You might want to ask your nurse what she really meant!. Water is the base ingredient to all drinks!. If anything you should stay away from the other drinks because water is plain and all the other drinks just add more stuff that you might not need!. I think what she meant is that you are drinking too much at once!. The normal way is to drink 8 glass of water a day a bit more is good but a lot more is too much!. Are you drinking more than 8 glasses of water!? If so how much more are you drinking!?Www@FoodAQ@Com

Coconut water is best!. You can take Indian "Dahi ki lassi", Cucumber juice with salt, sugar and little cream makes it a wonderful drink!.
There are many other drinks like : pineapple plus honey and lemon, Orange plus watermelon and honey!. You can try for different fruit moktails!. Www@FoodAQ@Com

The reason that drinking too much water is sometimes bad, is because it flushes, too many essential minerals from your system,
most energy drink like Gatorade or propel replaces those!. and that is why the are better for you as a supplement to your water!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
