According to the Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey, about 18% of Koreans experience it. The incidence is especially high among teenagers. If symptoms persist or complications are suspected, please consult an otolaryngology (ENT) specialist.2026-06-26

Fluid Intake and Health
#fluid intake, #water, #empty stomach, #bowel movement, #dehydration, #health drinks, #digestion
The body keeps its fluid balance by triggering thirst when fluid is low and excreting excess fluid in the urine. Rather than following a fixed standard, the basic principle is to drink enough when you feel thirsty. Drinking water on an empty stomach in the morning can replace fluid used up overnight and may help bowel movement.2026-06-26
