Comment on Why do some people hate drinking water?

I love water, easily my most preferred beverage; I’ll choose water even if my meal comes with a drink. But it makes me sick in the middle of the night or in the morning. I don’t get it. It makes me nauseous. If I cut the water with juice or I drink coffee it’s fine. If I wait until like 11:40 am, it’s fine. But if I wake up parched at 4 am and I chug water like I want to, I’ll feel sick. If I drink half a glass before breakfast? Sick. OJ? Fine any time. Coffee, apple juice, 2/3 apple juice with 1/3 water? All fine. What’s wrong with me?

Might be electrolyte imbalance.

Sounds like something you should seriously ask your doctor.

Is it possible you’re tap water is low quality? An interesting experiment would be to boil some water for 5 min to kill any bacteria. Then let it cool, and then pour it in a container and pop in the fridge. Then try drinking that in the morning and see if it resolves your issue.

With the coffe it’s already getting boiled for a short time, with the apple juice and oj, you might not be drinking enough water for it to affect you, and it’s getting diluted.

  It’s happened for years over many different houses and locations, even different states. That was a good and thoughtful response though, thank you!

Nothing comes close to a crispy glass of cool water
