THE DANGER OF DRINKING
TOO MUCH .............WATER!

 

       Yes, that's right, overindulging we know is a bad thing ----- but drinking too much water? They call it water intoxification!  Or perhaps you already know the other term for it, "Hyponatremia".  When someone drinks excessive amounts of plain old water it may cause a low concentration of sodium in the blood. Athletes and others who perspire profusely (AKA the "S" word, SWEAT) also lose sodium. The combination can result in an imbalance in the blood-sodium concentration levels and that can be serious. At worst, hyponatremia can cause seizures, coma and even death. Not good.

 

So what to do? The experts have suggestions but they come with warnings, in some cases. 

---Drink sports drinks that contain sodium;

---During heavy exertion, drink about a cupful every 20 minutes; 

---Increase your salt intake when you expect to be working hard in the heat and sweating (except if you have high blood pressure);

---Add salt to your food unless your doctor  says not to do so;

---Avoid use of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory (NSAIDS) medicines, sometimes they cause issues;

---And consult a physician if you have a history of health problems.

 

Well, in this litigious society, one can expect such ambiguities but remember, water intoxification is real so try to take it easy when it is hot.

Crooked excavators dig on the slant.
Wacker Neuson introduces the Vertical Digging System.

VDS 38Z3 with VDS in ActionYou are always in the best (working) position with VDS. The secret is in the tilting bracket. It tilts the working part of the excavator up to 15 degrees. You can realize savings of up to 25% when you are able to compensate for slopes. Increase productivity in materials and time saved by digging vertically. That goes for back filling too. The tilting  machine allows full 360 degree rotation of the cab and digging arm. On level ground the upper carriage can be tilted to dig under objects like pipes. And there's a bonus for the operator when sitting vertically: less stress and better posture make the work more comfortable. Other advantages become evident with the use of an auger, hydraulic hammer due to precise placement of the tool.

       Seeing is believing, take a VDS equipped Wacker Neuson excavator out for a test dig.
