People who urinate after drinking water or those who don't go to the toilet for a long time, who is healthier?
As the saying goes, people have three urgent needs, namely drinking water, eating, and going to the toilet. The human body needs to eat food every day to maintain vital signs, and also needs to excrete junk toxins to maintain health.
I am sure everyone has similar problems in their life. Not drinking water can affect their health. If they drink too much, they will often go to the toilet, which makes many people afraid to drink a lot of water at work.
However, even if some people drink a lot of water, they don't go to the toilet as often. Many people wonder which is healthier?
01
What is the healthiest time to urinate after drinking water ?
Once in the body, the water flows through the esophagus into the stomach. After being absorbed and utilized by the stomach, most of the water will be transported to various organs of the body along the blood to maintain normal life activities.
Water flows into the kidneys, where it is converted into urine under filtration by the glomerulus and reabsorption by the renal capsule, which is stored in the bladder. When the bladder stores a certain amount of urine, it produces a urination signal that causes the body to urinate.
Under normal circumstances, adults need to ensure 1500-2000 ml of water. After the water has entered the body, it takes about 30 to 45 minutes to enter the bladder, allowing the body to feel urination. The frequency of urination is about 8 times a day, which is within the normal range.
However, due to many factors affecting the urination time, such as the amount of water, the time of drinking water, etc., there is no exact regulation on the urination interval.

The urination interval is related to these three factors.
1. Drinking water
The more water you drink, the more urine you urinate. The duration of urination is directly related to the amount of drinking water. When the body lacks water, the needs of various organs cannot be met, and there is no excess water in the body.
Insufficient drinking water for a long time or in a high temperature environment will lead to excessive loss of water in the body, thereby reducing urine production.
2. Sphincter function.
It is normal for adults to urinate about 8 times a day. If it exceeds 8 times, it may be related to abnormal sphincter function.
When the bladder sphincter contracts, bladder output increases. If the sphincter strength is reduced, the amount of urine stored will also be reduced, so frequent toilet visits.
3. Kidney deficiency
Chinese medicine believes that the state of urine directly reflects whether the kidney function is normal. Urine is a metabolite filtered by the blood through the kidneys. If the urine output is low, it is also a manifestation of kidney deficiency.
Generally, low urine output is caused by slow metabolism caused by kidney deficiency, and patients generally experience weakness in urination or even no urge to urinate.

Who is healthier for people who have been urinating after drinking water or who do not go to the toilet for a long time?
People who go to the toilet frequently .
Going to the toilet after drinking water is a normal physiological response. The more water you drink, the more frequent going to the toilet will be. If urine has been stored in the bladder, it cannot be ruled out that it affects health.
If you go to the toilet more than 8 times a day, you need to pay attention, it may be caused by abnormality of some organs in the body, such as benign prostatic hyperplasia.
The disorder can also cause frequent urination, urgency, and incontinence, usually in middle-aged and elderly people. If urination increases frequently, it is best to go to the hospital for related examinations in time.
People who don't go to the toilet for half a day.
First, everyone's bladder size is different. If the bladder storage capacity is large, it is not easy to urinate frequently. Second, if you drink less water, you will also urinate less, which is normal.
In addition, bad habits in life can also lead to a decrease in the frequency of urination, such as holding back urine for a long time, which can lead to excessive relaxation of the bladder and reduce bladder sensitivity. Even if there is a certain amount of urine stored in the bladder, the feeling of urination is not easy to produce.
To sum up, the number of urination after drinking water cannot be used to judge whether the body is healthy or not. If you must distinguish between the two, whose body will be healthier.
Therefore, people who urinate more often have better health, because urine can excrete garbage and toxins from the body, thereby reducing the burden on various organs.
