How Seniors Should Drink Water to Support Blood Sugar & Diabetes Health Doctor Explains | Dr. Boz

Описание: If you’re over 60 and struggling to control your blood sugar, even though you’re eating right, exercising, and taking your medications exactly as prescribed — this video may explain why.

Dr. Boz (Annette Bosworth, MD) reveals a critical but overlooked factor that makes diabetes harder to control after age 60: chronic dehydration and improper water timing.

Many older adults are unknowingly dehydrated due to:

Blunted thirst signals

Reduced kidney function

Diuretics and blood pressure medications

Drinking coffee, tea, or cold water instead of strategic hydration

In this video, you’ll learn:

Why dehydrated cells resist insulin

How water temperature affects cortisol and morning glucose

The exact WTR Protocol Dr. Boz uses with patients

Why fasting blood sugar rises even when diet doesn’t change

How proper hydration can improve insulin sensitivity

⚠️ This is not a cure and does not replace medication — it optimizes how your body responds.

1️⃣ Don’t count coffee or tea as hydration — they worsen dehydration
2️⃣ Avoid ice-cold water, especially in the morning
3️⃣ Drink small amounts consistently — not all at once
4️⃣ Hydrate before meals, not during
5️⃣ Morning water timing directly affects fasting glucose
