Body's4
  • Because thirst is the body's signal to replace water loss, it is most often appropriate to drink plenty of liquids. (medlineplus.gov)
  • The body's thirst-sensing system is relatively simple, Knight says. (hhmi.org)
  • Thirst is often viewed by physiologists and physicians as a central nervous system mechanism that regulates the body's water and minerals. (encyclopedia.com)
  • Because the thirst mechanism is an unreliable indicator of the body's true thermoregulatory and osmoregulatory condition during exercise, an athlete must develop a fluid replacement/hydration strategy that permits optimal function irrespective of the thirst sensation. (faqs.org)
Sensation12
  • Thirst, a sensation resulting from a peculiar state of the system , but especially of the mucous membrane of the fauces , usually caused by an insufficient supply of liquid . (everything2.com)
  • That the thirst is relieved by the absorption of the fluid , and not by its action as it passes over the mucous membrane, which seems to suffer most, is proved by the facts (1) that injection of liquids into the stomach through a tube (in cases of wounded œsophagus ), and (2) the injection of thin fluids, as water, into the blood , remove the sensation of thirst. (everything2.com)
  • Thirst is a conscious sensation that results in a desire to drink. (encyclopedia.com)
  • Physiologists have popularized the term alliesthesia (from Greek root words referring to altered sensation) to describe the fact that the sensation of thirst may have either pleasant or unpleasant qualities, depending on the intensity of the stimulus and the state of the person. (encyclopedia.com)
  • The thirst mechanism is also progressive in its signal from the involuntary system to the human senses, a sensation that cannot be shut out or deactivated through any means. (faqs.org)
  • If an athlete relies on the thirst sensation to determine hydration, the athlete will often begin the activity in a mildly dehydrated state. (faqs.org)
  • Absent a dysfunction, your body lets you know when you need to drink by the sensation of thirst. (trailspace.com)
  • Thirst is the sensation by which our central nervous systems tells us we need water. (trailspace.com)
  • If you are truly getting dehydrated without the sensation of thirst, then there may be a physical issue that needs to be addressed. (trailspace.com)
  • Perhaps the author of those English classics Tom Brown's Schooldays and Tom Brown at Oxford understood that thirst is an extremely powerful sensation not easily overridden or ignored, for the body knows what it needs better than the coach. (humankinetics.com)
  • But how does your brain sense the need for water, generate the sensation of thirst, and then ultimately turn that signal into a behavioral trigger that leads you to drink water? (caltech.edu)
  • The injection of water into the blood, the stomach, or the large intestine appeases thirst, though no fluid is brought in contact with the part to which the sensation is referred. (wikisource.org)

  • In laboratory experiments, thirst is measured empirically with subjective perceptual scales (for example, ranging from "not thirsty at all" to "very, very thirsty") and drinking behavior is quantified by observing the timing and volume of fluid consumed. (encyclopedia.com)
  • If a behavior reduces thirst, that behavior is reinforced and learned as a habit. (encyclopedia.com)
  • Numerous investigations have verified that thirst and drinking behavior are complex entities. (encyclopedia.com)
  • For example, drinking behavior (that is, the timing and the amount of fluid consumed) is not linearly related to the intensity of perceived thirst. (encyclopedia.com)
  • These facts indicate that thirst and drinking behavior are distinct entities that influence each other and are influenced by numerous internal and external factors. (encyclopedia.com)
