Neuropathy: weakness, numbness, and pain from nerve damage, usually in the hands and feet. This means you need more water. After doing my own research, I discovered that your nerves may be just deprived of water. Water is really the elixir of life.
Hydration is important for overall health and well-being. The body requires water for various functions including supporting the liver, kidneys and temperature regulation. It also affects nutrient absorption, waste removal, joint lubrication, healthy skin and cognitive function. Adequate hydration is necessary for us to live and survive. Too much water can be a bad thing without the required nutrients. For example, I need salt. Because I work out a lot, I deprive myself of salt through sweating. When your body consumes it, salt becomes an electrolyte, which provides energy. Salt also reduces muscle cramps. Some people will use pickle juice for cramps. “While it hasn’t been proven yet, researchers posit that pickle juice may help cramps by triggering muscular reflexes when the liquid contacts the back of the throat. The reflex shuts down the misfiring of neurons in muscle all over the body, and “turns off” the cramping feeling. It’s thought that it’s specifically the vinegar content in pickle juice that does this.” ( https://www.healthline.com/health/pickle-juice-for-cramps ) Water: the essence of life.
