根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项,选项中有两项为多余选项。
Is bottled water better for you than tap? Or should you choose vitamin-enriched water? Experts say, skip it all.None of these products is likely to make you any healthier.Below, we look at four major myths about the benefits of drinking water. 1 Experts say there’s an easy way to judge.If you are not thirsty, your fluid intake is likely “just right”
Myth No 1:Drink eight glasses each day.
Scientists say there’s no clear health benefit of drinking so much water a day. 2 “Nobody really knows,” says Dr.Stanley Goldfarb, a kidney expert at the University of Pennsylvania.
Myth No.2:Lots of water equals healthier skin.
The body is already 60 percent water. 3 Adding a few extra glasses of water each day has a limited effect.“It’s such a tiny part of what’s in the body,” says Goldfarb.“ It’s very unlikely that one’s getting any benefit.”
Myth No.3: 4
A more accurate statement may be:Drinking water is a helpful tool for dieters.“Water is a great strategy for dieters because it has no calories,” says Madeline Fernstrom of the University of Pittsburgh.“So you can keep your mouth busy without food and get a sense of satisfaction.” But water is not magical, she adds.“Other zero-calorie options such as diet sodas are fine, too.”
Myth No.4:It’s easy to get dehydrated(脱水的)during a workout.
Dehydration sets in when a person has lost 2 percent of his or her body weight. 5 “It’s also obvious that individuals in hot, dry climates have an increased need for water,” says Goldfarb.“But for a walk in the park, no water bottle is necessary.”
A.So where does the standard advice come from?
B.But it’s unclear whether these changes are clinically significant.
C.So for a 200-pound man, this means losing 4 pounds of water.
D.Drinking extra water leads to weight loss.
E.Drink as much water as you can.
F.So, if you take a 200-pound man, he’s 120 pounds of water.
G.But first, how do you know if you’re drinking enough water?
