Water Breakthrough?

Question
I recently read the following. Has anyone heard about it? Can you elaborate?

"Can you please elaborate on the following.... how do you know what is enough and when is enough?


On the average, a person should drink eight 8-ounce glasses every day. That's about 2 quarts. However, the overweight person needs one additional glass for every 25 pounds of excess weight. The amount you drink also should be increased if you exercise briskly or if the weather is hot and dry. Water should preferably be cold - it's absorbed into the system more quickly than warm water. And some evidence suggests that drinking cold water can actually help burn calories. When the body gets the water it needs to function optimally, its fluids are perfectly balanced. Once this happens you have reached the "breakthrough point". What does this mean?



Endocrine-gland function improves.



Fluid retention is alleviated as stored water is lost.



More fat is used as fuel because the liver is free to metabolize stored fat.



Natural thirst returns.



There is loss of hunger almost overnight.



If you stop drinking enough water, your body fluids will be thrown out of balance again, and you may experience fluid retention, unexplained weight gain and loss of thirst. To remedy the situation you'll have to go back and force another "breakthrough"."

Answer
Hi Amanda,

"If you stop drinking enough water, your body fluids will be thrown out of balance again, and you may experience fluid retention, unexplained weight gain and loss of thirst" this part is true. The rest sound like good marketing for bottled water. I have never heard of a "breakthrough".

Was this a study?
