I hear many people saying that you need to drink lots of water to help flush out the phosphate.

Dr St Amand states that it’s not necessary in his 3rd edition book. Drinking lots of water is for sinus and loosening mucus, and we are most interested in the effect on the Kidneys with the Guaifenesin protocol.

That said, drinking lots of water is just plain good for overall health! If you wait until you FEEL thirsty, you are waiting too long and likely are already dehydrated! Which all by itself can cause fatigue and we already struggle enough with that, thank you very much!

Drinking lots of water can also help with any bladder, UTI problems you may have. It will HELP, but if you have an infection, don’t expect just water to make it go away please!
