Water For Athletes and Exercise

[2003]

Like I said, water dissolves matter. So, then it will leach nutrients out of your body. When you're exercising, you're producing a lot of lactic acid and a lot of waste products, water's good for that.

Drink water when you exercise?

[Aajonus]

For most people that are exercising heavily, perspiring a lot, unless you've been on the diet, then you don't need to do that. But when you're young on the diet, water is helpful.

So, I always have my green juice before I exercise. I'm wondering how to rotate my water with my exercise?

[Aajonus]

I would say during, and after, not before. Because you will start leaching your nutrients before you start exercising, you need the water when you begin to exercise. In my lab tests, in the carbonated water, there was always an increase in nitrogen in the intestines and oxygen in the blood.
