Tell me how much and when to drink. Because i drink watter after meals around 2 to 3 glasses. And before and after i pee
Got it — you’re drinking in fairly large chunks, especially after meals. That’s not harmful for most people with healthy kidneys, but it can make digestion less efficient if you drink a lot all at once.
Here’s a simple guide for how much and when to drink to support digestion and avoid overloading your stomach:
💧 How much per sitting
- Before meals: About ½–1 glass (125–250 mL) is fine if you’re thirsty. Avoid chugging more than 1 glass within 15 minutes before eating.
- During meals: Sip small amounts as needed, just enough to help swallow food.
- After meals: Wait 30–45 minutes before drinking large amounts (more than 1 glass), so your stomach acids can work without being diluted too much.
- Overall daily: A general safe target is ~35 mL per kg of body weight.
- Example: If you weigh 60 kg → about 2.1 liters total in a day.
- Spread it out; your kidneys can handle ~800–1000 mL/hour, but less is better for comfort.
⏱ When to drink for best digestion and comfort
- Morning – 1–2 glasses right after waking up (great for rehydrating).
- Between meals – Your main water intake should be here.
- After peeing – It’s fine to drink, but try 1 glass instead of 2–3 unless you’re truly thirsty.
- Pre-exercise – 1 glass 30 minutes before.
- Before bed – Just a few sips, unless you want to wake up to pee.
🚫 Avoid
- Gulping 2–3 glasses immediately after a heavy meal.
- Drinking a huge amount in less than 10 minutes.
- Letting thirst be your only guide — sometimes people don’t feel thirsty but still need water, so steady sipping is best.
If you like, I can make you a personal water schedule that fits your eating times and bathroom habits, so your digestion stays smooth. That way you won’t need to think about it during the day.
