After years of dehydration is it necessary to rehydrate slowly?

Excess water is not usually harmful at all.  The body has a very effective homeostatic method for handling unneeded water.  It gets eliminated as urine, usually within a few minutes.  The only possible harm would be loss of electrolytes and the water-soluble vitamins C and B-family.

You don't shrivel, but your skin gets baggy. It has absorbed water. Osmosic rate will be greater in warmer water because diffusion rates will increase (Graham's Law).

one or more problem, like the other person said you could have a kidney problem, but do you drink enough water? When you are dehydrated you muscles tense, and your skin reflex is slow meaning it takes longer to rest. make sure to drink 8 glasses of water a day! to keep proper hydration, helps lubricate muscles, tendons, joints, cartilage, and  ligaments. If not that, you could be sleeping wrong, may need a new mattress, if too soft can cause a curve in back and put strain on muscles in lower lumbar region (lower back), and ther are bones there while in bed which may be in a awkward position causeing strain & intense/ sharp pain with you being in that consistent position(if you are). drink water (8glasses a day), get a new mattress, do strecth/breathing exercises, don't eat late, get 8 hours of sleep, and see how you feel.

Yes, it does. However, studies have shown that you don't need 8 glasses of water a day JUST to be hydrated. In fact, a marathon runner a few years back died from drinking too much water. I'm guessing that if you're not thirsty, you're hydrated.

Don't drink or eat anything for at least 3-4 hours after you vomit. Then start with very small amounts of clear liquids only. If you keep these down, advance your diet slowly ie. plain toast, saltine crackers, very bland foods. If, after this, you continue to not be able to keep fluids down, you may become dehydrated. Make an appointment with your doctor at this point.

Well, as one gets older, one's metabolism slows, and certain nutrients are not needed in the same quantities.

Most people in the Western World suffer from severe dehydration. The chemically preserved and altered food, decaffeinated beverages with toxic sugars ann vaccinated and steroid pumped up meat. Leg pain is a coomon health issue for those with hehydration. If this were my situation(someone who dealt with chronic pain for decades, I would try the water cure first. drink six glasses of distilled water every day for two weeks. Get three of those sun tea glass containers and add 12 grains of brown rice to each container to remineralize the distilled water(a friend suggested this) and rotate the water to continually drink remineralized water. In two weeks, start adding 1/4 tablespoon of unrefined sea salt to three more glasses of \ndistilled water each day. This will remineralize and rehydrate your body. Make this a lifestyle change. When your urine is clear each time you urinate, you will know your body is processing the toxins in your food better. \n\nIf your heydrated and remineralized bidy cures your problem then great but you might also want to make dietary changes to help prevent other health problems. Eat or juice blueberries, apples, and vegatables with most meals. Fruit juices like carrot juice, celery juice, and juicing other vegatables are great ways to give your body antioxidants that will help you with chronic pain. If your stools begin floating instead of sinking, this is a good indicator that your body is more alkaline. If the water cure and juicing doesn't help and you are a meat eater, back off to a 80% fruits and vegatables to 20% whole grain breads and free range meats. Add Tumeric and Cayenne to any meat you eat for flavor for more antioxidant effect. Slow down and then stop drinking diet drinks and sugary drinks over a period of several weeks. Get to apoint where most of your food is raw and organic. This is a process and may take years of coaching your body to accept this way of life but it will cure more than just your legs. This more healthy body you will be creating will be a great vehicle to carry your soul around for the rest of your life.\n\nGet at least one hour of sunlight every day. If you can walk barefoot in sand even better. Let the sun heal you. Start doing out of doors activities that provide you with healthy aerobic exercises such as kayaking, rowing, swimming, or just walking. Your exercise should be an extension of who you are. \n\nIf you are still having pain after several weeks with the water cure, diet changes, and aerobic out of doors exercises, the sour truth about the healing properties of apple cider vinegar may be all you need to knock out your pain for good. Add a tablespoon of raw unfiltered apple cider vinegar and a tablespoon of cinamon to strong juices ththree time a day before meals. Apple Cider Vinegar will also help you metabolize and provide your gut good flora \nwhile you are still working on reaching an optimal diet and exercise lifestyle. When your diet and exercise program are perfect, you can back off or eliminate apple cider vinegar but if you begin to notice cold or flu synptoms that amy occur as your body is adjusting to its new alkaline self, take a shot of apple cider vinegar with a teaspoon of cinnamon and cayenne three times a day until the cold or flu\nsymptoms are gone. \n\nYou might also consider accupuncture from someone who is the "real thing."\n\nIf you choose to take on these lifestyle changes to cure your leg pain, you might just end up a health nut but nuts are another good thing to add to your diet. Eat almonds and walnuts regularly. Add one Brazil Nut to your diet every day for heavy metal elimination. Try to become toxin free. Stop drinking dairy and swith to almond milk. Dairy plugs up the gut and is toxin ridden from dairy cows who have vaccinations, steroids, and other toxins pumped in them from birth. Imagine how toxic a human being would be who lived in America and you might get the idae about dairy.\n\nPerfect health is a journey and y

Yes!  Your brain doesn't differentiate between hunger and thirst so a lot of times, those hunger pangs can be stifled by rehydrating and you won't intake calories that your body doesn't actually need.  Most people operate continually dehydrated.  If you got all the water you need -6 to 8 glasses a day- your body would have a lot easier time functioning (including increased metabolic function).  Also, drinking more water won't just help you lose weight -- it'll help you lose inches.  If your body is used to not getting enough water, it stores all that it can.  If you're giving it all it needs, you'll have less water retention!

Water does provide some nourishment for the skin and prevents dryness and flakiness.  It moves to the top layer of skin through transepidermal water loss.  \nHowever, I don't believe that you should actually drink eight to ten gallons or glasses of water each day.  Drink when you're thristy.

Try gentle exercise. Take a short walk each day. Gradually increase your walking time until you are walking for at least 20 minutes. \nMake sure you drink enough fluids. Most adults should try to drink between 8 and 10 glasses of water, noncaffeinated beverages, or fruit juice each day. Avoid alcoholic beverages and caffeine, which can increase dehydration. If you have heart failure or kidney failure, talk to your health professional about what amount of fluid is right for you. \nInclude fruits, vegetables, and fiber in your diet each day. Have a bran muffin or bran cereal for breakfast, and try eating a piece of fruit for a mid-afternoon snack. \nSchedule time each day for a bowel movement (after breakfast, for example). Establishing a daily routine may help. Take your time. Don't be in a hurry. \nSupport your feet with a small step stool [about 6 in. (15 cm)] when you sit on the toilet. This will help flex your hips and place your pelvis in a more normal "squatting" position for having a bowel movement. \nIf you are still constipated: \nAdd some processed or synthetic fiber—such as Citrucel, Metamucil, or Perdiem—to your diet each day. \nTry a stool softener, such as Colace, if your stools are very hard. \nTry a rectal glycerin suppository. Follow the directions on the label. Do not use more often than recommended on the label. Do not use a suppository while you are breast-feeding unless your health professional tells you to. \nIf constipation persists, add a saline laxative, such as Fleet Phospho-Soda or Milk of Magnesia. You should not take these types of laxatives if you are on a sodium-restricted diet or have kidney problems or high blood pressure. \nYou may occasionally need to try a stimulant laxative, such as Ex-Lax or Feen-a-Mint. Use these preparations sparingly. Overuse of stimulant laxatives decreases the tone and sensation in the large intestine, causing dependence on laxatives. Regular use may interfere with your body's ability to absorb vitamin D and calcium, which can weaken your bones. Do not use laxatives for longer than 2 weeks without consulting your doctor. Talk to your doctor before using an enema. Your doctor may need to check your symptoms or may suggest a different way to treat your constipation.
