Twins test effects of water intake on skin health and beauty - BBC

[og4lmf]

Usual bbc propaganda.

Check Dr. Lorraine Day

Peace from holland.

[emacwakeup]

wen u cook and prepare food the water evaporates....

ive strted drinking xtra water and alhamdulillah (praise be to god) im seeing sm results already....

[Hammadasian]

A weeeeeek cant prove any thing.....?

[joshwapiano]

It would have been nice if they could have looked at more than just the twin's skin conditions.. I'd love to find out what effect the water difference had on their energy levels.

[ZerqTM]

watch?v=PpSXQ2mvNnY

[ZerqTM]

if the goverment wants to control our minds or not is beside the point...

though if they increase the dosage (which we have no way of knowing) then they can get the same results as in the soviet union where experiments in consentration camps showed it could passify people.

[ZerqTM]

Floride is bad!

for one thing its never the natural kind but a industrial byproduct thats used. (probably because its cheaper then clorine.

secondly its only good for people who dont brush there teeth properly.

for people who actualy do take care of there teeth it can actualy be harmful.

for another thing florid is toxic and there is no merit to consuming it in fact studies show it increases the chanse for canser.

Floride is just bad!

[shanek49]

how do we deal with any problem in nature we can never remove it completly so to be harmonios we have levels which we can tollerate.

the only way to rid our bodies of the mass of chemicals we consume is to piss a fricken lot, so drink heaps and be merry

[shanek49]

why do we need water? to cool,to hydrate cells,and to carry away toxins and it goes in that order. u aint gonna see an effect in a persons skin in a week and might not notice much in a longer period, but in the latter years the toxins will build up and then say hello to your new friend cancer

[johnkrois]

Lol.. nicely said xD

[daisukinahimitsu]

i agree that we need water.

no one ever believes me when i say that water cured my acne. i drink as much water as i see fit everyday, and see HUGE results!

oh well. another natural beauty secret never to make it mainstream...

[Hotora86]

Oh man, I am sooo not buying any bottled water anymore! Maybe.

[sandrakimleong]

Very informative. Water helps us to flush out toxins from our body. Without water, bowel movements will also be difficult. Water is definitely very essential to detox diets. Do watch my video on "what is a detox diet".

[BiGBoShMaN]

Too bad this deceiving Video doesn't mention the other health benefits of drinking extra pure water, they only mention about skin.

[crybbchub]

my doctor is a liar... if this is true..

[TAZ8593]

ha ha good, i dont do that to begin with....

[hombremonja]

i dont trust in news anymore so i dont know if that is true , anyway i will drink as much water as i want

[MariosTackle]

it doesnt mention those who r on diet (to loose weight) i think they need the extra water to 'wash out' fat and prevent from ketosis

[Leadacetate]

If you aren't getting enough glucose in your diet, you're going to go into ketosis no matter how much water you drink. Ketosis about maintaining blood sugar levels, not hydration.

[julialicious]

wow. i don't know that. i allways drink water to get my skin feel better..

[tcpip4lyfe]

I wish the US had a reputable and unbiased news network.

[RABBIDGamfan]

I know. The closest we have to one, at least out of our major news networks, is the PBS show the News Hour. And even that can be a little biased at times. PBS has been going through some major crap with the government and the big corporations recently, and it doesn't look like it will stop any time soon.

[boilarballer]

idiot -.-

[boilarballer]

thanks for info!! X]

[xToboesxGirlx]

Yeah, guys. Yell at the BBC... that's smart.

[zombiemaster8825]

Good Ol' American studies!

lol

Kucinich 2008

[bezelthai]

Oh No! Not American testing!!!!!

[turkishincanada]

Canada and US alliance retard. I care ahahahha

[thesharkof98]

This is great news thanks!

[brunozil2]

i personaly dont know why am i reading this commentes !

what's so great about been rich or whatever once i got it mainly from explotation !!!

congratulations pirate !

[mydogisbrian]

You know what? I QUIT TRYING TO FOLLOW ONLINE ARGUMENTS. Screw you guys

[mtinmpls]

no matter, our color, race, or sex we are ALL HUMANS we all put our pants on one leg at a time. WORLD PEACE!!!

[DOcrepITy]

actually I put my pants on both legs at the same time do some research you jackass.

[nicknaxo]

En esta clase de vídeos es donde las gilipollas escriben harto para aparentar que se preocupan por el medio ambiente... ?.

[DOcrepITy]

thornel is a incoherant dumbass, nothing he wrote even makes sense.

[thorneel]

Duuh! They got weapons of mass destruction paww! Lets go get them. Ya your all fucken brains all right. Pisa test isn't much good to your solders you geniusess sent out to the middle east, Korea, Vietnam the list goes on and on. Shit for Brains! Sorry If I have offended any other Americans but this prick thinks he knows it all.

[turkishincanada]

God Bless America...

[thorneel]

we must have made you so, out of all the shit we had left over from making shit. Remember Kennedy and Ragen were Irish you fuck head.

[TiedLaces]

Morons. The test has to prove that it isn't PURE WATER, which was known FAR before this study was made (Pure or not pure, no matter for this point, there are obvious advantages of pure water in other areas).

[turkishincanada]

I belevie that u r retard now.

[thorneel]

Mamas boy! Move out and grow up, PRICK!

[iamtheemomushroom]

in ALL countrys, there are poor and rich people. In other countrys more than others. The USA is one of the richest countrys in the world, yeah, but so is Japan, and UK, ect ect. US is not "the best" in all aspects, so you can get that idea out of ur heads. as sergio said before, all countrys have flaws. Oh, and Russia is bigger than US politically. You probably knew that, but some in this discussion probably are too concieted to know such a thing.

[METAL4EVER911]

arrowheadny i think he meant population wise... idiot.

[DOcrepITy]

its true, most shows that have a guy with a british accent are bullshit.

[aeinstein1904]

Good twin study for 1 week on skin. But before saying, "no need for 2L of water/D" wouldn't you want to do a large, randomized, long term study, including effects on the kidneys and colon?

[spdlight7]

the real secret is drink if your thirsty, period. Also, I don't eat much food and found myself drinking more water because of it, interesting ah? what you need to learn is to know how to breath, our first source of energy, oxygen. Practice yoga, you will be less hungry, and eat less.

[Kayline2122]

hehe... I love the British Accent... not food, but "fewd" :D

[0Cindrum0]

Fascinating really...That actually taught me something =D

Thanks for this now all over the world dumshits like me will drink LESS because of this and eat MORE :P

heh rubber bands :P

What?

7UP YOURS

[arrowheadny]

All americans are fucking stupid.

[sergioayala]

american aren't idiots!! if they were idiots, USA wouldn't be the biggest country in the world!! it looks like you are the stupid!!

[sevensixfiver]

Dear retard. The United States IS NOT nor ever has or will be the biggest country in the world. Get a clue.

[sergioayala]

Dearest Stupid. It is obvious i was talking economically!! why don't you do some research? then you will find that USA is the richest and biggest country(economically)!! you idiot!! You're just jealous!! God! i hate people who can't take reality!!

[Bloodhalfdemon]

you Know what

Half Of the Us in the US is not Rich

and Thanks to Our president.

More and More People are Poor

USA Richest Country My Butt you Need Some kind of Reality Check

[sergioayala]

LOL! you think you know what poorness is?? I live in Mexico and you have no idea how lucky you're to live in USA, come to Mexico to see what it really is to be poor, thanks to a lot of work i come from a rich family, but i can tell 'cuz i've visited both usa and europe that you have no idea about what it is to live even near of poor people!! That's why i get a li' angry when people specially americans critize their own country 'cuz they have no idea how lucky they're to live there!

[arrowheadny]

Sergioyala, if Americans aren't idiots than why would Americans like yourself consider USA the biggest country in the world as you mentioned. Russia is the biggest country in the world and then Canada you idiot! haha!

[sergioayala]

LOL u're the idiot!! it is obvious that i'm talking economically!!! duh!!

[musculus123]

What about health insurance? If you don't have the money they will let you die!!! In Europe all people have basic insurance, so even a people in poverty have medical care and insurance in other we all have same rights!!!!!!In USA:" pay or die"!

Is that economic??? Only the strongest live??

Now I know why you're so rich!!!!

PS:Don't be so confident:))

[sergioayala]

Well, I said USA is the richest country but i didn't say it was perfect, just as USA has flaws, so does Europe, Asia and the rest of America, but overall USA is the best!! The best education, economy, etc...

[musculus123]

Yea education??? If you have money!!!!

We have free education!!!!

[sergioayala]

LOL!!! Education is also free in the USA, as well as it is in everywhere for example education in Mexico is not only free but it is also obligatory. Of course u can pay for it if u go to a private school like i do. There are plenty of private and public schools around. I think you have a wrong general idea of America.

[DOcrepITy]

best education? ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING? DURING THE PISA TEST THE USA RANKED 24 OUT OF 29 IT WAS ONLY 5 PLACES ABOVE MEXICO, ALMOST ALL OF EUROPE WAS ABOVE IT. DO SOME RESEARCH YOU FUCKHEAD.

[sergioayala]

USA has the top 5 colleges in the whole world!!! Harvard!, does it ring a bell for u?? i mean lets face it, usa is the biggest economically, military and socialy talking country, if you like that or not, it doesn't matter!!

[sergioayala]

it does have the best education!!! It perhaps doesn't have the best students, but it does have the best teachers and schools!! U're just jealous! The pisa test?? right!! It looks like you are the one who should do the research! besides i can tell how ignorant u are, i mean an educated and nice person doesn't call another "fuckhead" just for having a different idea!!

[DOcrepITy]

Actually first off I am from the US I was born here and I live here, second, Its not about having a "different idea" Its about looking at the facts retard. LOOK IT UP JUST TYPE IN "PISA TEST" the US may have the best colleges/universities but it definitely does not have the best other schools, and i cannot tell you how many teachers i have had that were complete retards who repeately got basic facts wrong, but i have also had some good ones.

[PrincessJamieAyla]

The USA does have *some* of the best universities, but any of the G7 could offer up on or more universities on par with the best the USA has to offer...Oxford or Cambridge for example

[PrincessJamieAyla]

sactually, the USA has the largest economy, but in terms of GDP per capita it's ranked about 4th accoding to the IMF and 6th according to the CIA world factbook.

[4dville]

There are a lot of stupid people in America, like every other country, but being from America won't make someone stupid. There are many educated and intelligent people living in the US.

[Meragness]

haha stupid americans. we start rumors by putting wires in the overn and then we need a briton to tell us what's what. and then we also need an asian guy with a sword to slice bottles in two. i actually think the bottle slicing was excellently cool

[reaperette]

...doesn't too much water cause electrolite imbalances or something?

[OddLooking]

I never trust any infomercials narrated with british accent.

They usually sell junk.

fuck BBC!

[TheRobatron]

I case you didn't know - the BBC is a NON-COMMERCIAL COMPANY. They don't sell stuff or show sponsors!

[OddLooking]

british accent smart ass

[killzem2]

yay less water for me!!!!!!! :D

[thorneel]

It is also not good to drink too much water with your meal. It dilutes down your stomach acid.

[DOcrepITy]

acutually retard it helps you digest food by breaking it down, do some reaseach you fuckhead.

[turkishincanada]

u r retard, Water's ph level is 7.14 which is neutral. Stomachs ph leve is below 2 when you drink water with your meal retard, you increase the level of ph which slows down your digestion..You are right in one point ; Yes water is good solution but If you increase the level of PH your fucked up...First step Reflux next step Cancer ;)

[DOcrepITy]

show me some research that says drinking water causes either of those. jackass.

[thorneel]

Well there you have it! Can't argue with science, of course that is unless you're a scientist

[amya1980]

Who cares what they try and prove, personally I need to drink more water to keep my skin clear. It also makes my eyes bright and I feel I have more energy. I guess everyone's different.

[ELMOcall911]

wut about there teeth cant they drink to fix them lol

[ELMOcall911]

talk about concieted damn!!!

[4dville]

Water is used to dilute and neutralize things. It "waters down" the bad things you have inside you. If you get something toxic or poisonous in your eye or something you don't just scrub with soap, you wash it out with water.

[sarahhatesplasticppl]

actually, when theres poison in my eye, i go see a doctor

[4dville]

That's a dumb move right there. If you have anything toxic in your eye you're supposed to flush it out with water and then call a poison control center. If you go to the doctor he's going to call them anyway and if you wait that long for an appointment and everything then your eye will be gone.

[sarahhatesplasticppl]

tou che, shall do that if i find myself in said doubtful situation

[abrakabara]

I live in Las Vegas . I also work out side in direct sun. 2 liters a myth ,no way! Should be be more like 2 gallons . The test should of considered climate, big time omission .

[d1ez3]

I drink a gallon a day

I work out and live in florida and supplement with creatine and a high protein diet, Im not gonna harm my kidneys, and there is no need NOT to drink extra water, we are made up of 80% of it. if you drink too much you'll just pee it out, if you drink too little you are risking dehydration and damage to your body. so why not drink 2 liters more?

[RaWBLooD]

there isnt much to add to that response

hard working and athletic individuals can only gain benefits from drinking more water rather than not

[ronniedonnie]

id still have a 3some with em

[usefulmusic]

This video is extremely misleading because it takes no account of the normal diet of the two twins. Judging by their appearance and demeanour they are interested in looking good so most probably eat healthily.

The commentator implied that most foods contain more water than the other ingredients together and many consists of 80% or more of water.

[EntertainedWatcher]

myth busted :D

[UBER069]

more than 15 years ago I told friends and anyone that would listen-"as soon as they start selling bottled water, we are all in very big trouble"-there is a study I read that says based upon the volume of our atmosphere, every human is "allotted" 2 square kms of oxygen to breath over the course of their life-so that jock running down the street is using up more than his share of O2, just like people running cars, burning firewood-soon they will tax the air you breathe-just watch it happen

[BiGBoShMaN]

they already are taxing it, if not tax then they'll just make up some other type of payment you need to pay to the government.. also i hear income tax is unconstitutional

[UBER069]

-girls that wan to trim a couple of pounds should drink 1 litre/hundred pounds of body weight and take baths three times a week as immersing yourself in water leeches moisture out of your skin-water is important, certainly, but the marketing of it IS a racket

[UBER069]

this video is misleading however-you don't "need" 2 litres a day, true, but the way your body works, especially those girls that want to trim a couple of pounds for there summer attire-if you drink enough water

your body will flush excess water as waste-this is good for proper chemical exchange-if you don't drink enough water or eat enough hydrated foods, your body hoards every last drop-this is a famine response-99% of the reason people get headaches is because they are dehydrated

[UBER069]

nevermind dasani - ALL of the plastic bottles leech toxic chemicals into the water - the FDA will tell you about "acceptable levels" for human consupmtion - next find out about aspartame - it was invented by the Nazis to put into a city's water supply to sterilize the "degenerate" population - part of their eugenics program - Donald Rumsfeld is responsible for bringing that little dose of poison into the modern market

[BiGBoShMaN]

i thought dasani was the better of the bottled waters since it claims to remove the fluoride in it, while other brands still have the fluoride in it

[Bashirashiba]

fluoride is supposed to be good for your teeth I keep hearing

[BiGBoShMaN]

it helps your teeth, but in return you become infertile and become more like a woman, you like that tradeoff?

[SatanHasAids]

Just make sure it's not Dasani you're replacing that 2 liters with. It contains potassium chloride. Wikipedia quote - "A massive overdose of intravenous potassium chloride is used to stop the heart in execution by lethal injection." Only Da Nasi would put something like that in water.

[UBER069]

potassium chloride is dervied from apple seeds - ever heard of cyanide?

[BiGBoShMaN]

hmmm is this why so many NBA athletes i see on the benches drink from dasani bottles??

[UBER069]

wow are you that thick? it's called paid advetising - some atheletes will only drink gatorade when seated on the bench - that's called an endorsement - pay attention

[BiGBoShMaN]

i know about endorsements, I'm just questioning wheather Dasani really contains harmful substances in it, if so not even the health team for professional sports know about it.. so who really knows about this?? is there a name for this group of people?

[Uhlbelk]

Its quite simple. Your body uses water to balance electrolytes in the cells. You eat too much salt, or protein, or other things that are flushed out with the urine and you need more water to accomplish that. If you excercise and loose extra water through sweat, you need extra water to replace it.

[zassar78]

Besides the additives (ie preservatives and colors in other drinks/sodas) another problem is that most people don't actually eat enough fruit and veges to get their water from that and eat processed/packaged foods instead, which are lower in water content as that is one of the things that makes the food go 'off' quicker

[Afrobrit]

I cycle to and from work daily and I drink 2 litres of high-juice squash. If I did nor drink it I would be seriously dehydrated. The easiest test is looking at you urine - if it is darkish yellow you need fluid - it should be clearish with a tinge of yellow. (Good hyrdration)

[Mastermeida]

Why can people be so dumb???

Drink water!!! It's the best for your body.

[danielwilson2k]

Try telling a bodybuilder that you dont need extra water...More water allows better blood flow meaning more nutrients to the muscle!

[TheReluctantGeisha]

This is the dumbest thing I have ever seen.

A person NEEDS water and hydration to survive. That's like telling fat people that having an EXTRA big mac is okay, because they've already eaten one.

... Seriously, this is dumb.

[6thCreated]

LOL it's not EXTRA water you want it is clean water INSTEAD of soda's, alcohol and other "bad" for you drinks noobs. If the ONLY liquid a human had in their diet was water they would be way, way, WAY more healthy than a person who drank alot of soda's, alcohol and other "bad" for you drinks.

[4dville]

Drinking other shit besides water can have negative side effects. Like you take in the water but you also take in everything else in it. Like soda. Or water. With all the pollution going on we'll be drinking "water based solution" in no time.

[ajr2006]

every drink besides water is just a water based solution

[4dville]

Exactly my point. If we don't stop polluting our water supply and clean it up then we won't have "water".

[ajr2006]

aha, I see what you're saying now... yeah probably true lol

[xxjunkyxx]

brb gonna get water

[reeffeeder]

what a silly experement. cutting out water for a week is just dangerous.

[AlexandrewPerson]

Omg I'm so thirsty

[oldoldoldoldold]

What's up with the guy at the end chopping open three bottles of water with a magical power sword?

[megabobson]

its symbolises the... i dunno lol

[UBER069]

cutting down the myth

[boomonkeyluv]

This makes me thirsty. I'm gonna go get some water.

[JuanWayri]

the conclution of this documentary isn´t valid, a few days doesn´t show the real changes of not drinking water. btw, if u drink alcohol, u´ll lose more water and it will change ur metabolism badly (of course, not if u dont trink too much)

[vinc1974]

schifo

[Taliba1983]

if I had wanted to see spoiled twins bothering over their looks I'd have tuned into something else...

[flowgrr24]

"Most of this quantity is contained in prepared foods." So that's what's been missing all my life.. Those 8 little words.. :)

[KittyKomix]

Well, I dont know. I would like to see the varied results in the other tests that were spoken of. If this test is the result of a couple days, I would like to know the results if it were doubled, or put into a month even, if that isnt asking too much. They could still drink other liquids of course.

[rayofminneapolis]

how much water is in a 6 pack of beer??

[r05ltd]

beer dehydrates you badly, so drink plenty water too mate.

[DrugDrugDruggy]

it doesnt dehydrate you, if you havnt got water its fine to drink beer, theres more water in it than you loose from it.

[Heralxz]

most beer are nothing but piss water (because it contain a high amount of H2O) VODKA ALL THE WAY!!!

[Kevinhall11]

who said anything about skin quality? water is used to carry away toxins and store certain nutrients. i don't know about the 2L/day idea, but it's important to get some water in you; it's a necessity of life.

[theresaknott]

Of course, but your body naturally takes care of that by making you thirsty. There is no need to even think about water intake ( unless you are marooned on a noat without any water) Drink when you feel thirsty.

[UBER069]

incorrect - waiting till you are thirsty to drink water means that you are already dehydrated - maintenance - not overwhelming response is what is needed

[Jibber616]

why are some people so image concious?

[sternip]

This video is a load of crap. The quality of your skin is the only thing measured in deciding if it's good for you or not and they make a wide ranging conclusion like they did?

Common sense says that if you do a lot of excercise or if the climate is hot you need to drink more water. Like most of recent BBC1 though this program is aimed at the middle class 40+ age group who sit on their arse watching tv every evening and never do anything else, so it might apply to them.

[weonk]

well nothing is all good or all bad... Hitler made the trains run on time. It's really hard to do a 4:31 sec program on every aspect of anything. Let alone the greatest that is water.

[Destinatious]

Exactly.

What I don't understand is how drinking 2 liters of water a day makes you beautiful.

[reeffeeder]

i agree with your comments 100%. you really hit the nail on the head with that comment. stupid video for stupid people.

[hend6475]

I agree with this. I think it's bad for you to force water down. But I still think it's important to get most of your fluids from water and not things like coffee. coffee make me more thirsty

[sigrdrifta]

Well its bound too, caffeine is a diuretic, as is alcohol, and salt needs to be diluted as its a poisen. Cut down on tea/coffee and lower your salt intake and you need no-where near 2L unless its a hot climate or your exercising lots.

[hend6475]

see, I thought so. I hate that this program advocates getting your fluids from things like coffee. While dispelling myths, they create them also. grrr!

[monkeymia]

It doesn't advocate getting water from coffee. It says people get water from it.

[1q1q21]

Too bad they didn't compare before and after weights for both women.

[skater4130]

2nd comment

[cletus1979]

after this view i feel thirsty
