glasses of water lost each day from normal kidney filtration.

Here are the matches based on the descriptions provided:

  1. glasses of water lost each day from normal kidney filtration. - This could represent urine output or fluid intake, but typically it would reference urine.

  2. the condition endurance athletes sometimes suffer from water intoxication. - This condition is known as hyponatremia.

  3. something that speeds up the process of elimination of water and waste through the kidneys. - This can be referred to as a diuretic.

So the matched responses would be:

  • Urine (for the first description)
  • Hyponatremia (for the second description)
  • Diuretic (for the third description)

If you need further help or specific wording, let me know!

It would be appropriate to consider a sports drink instead of water to re-hydrate when lifting heavy weights for 30 minutes.

This is because, during prolonged or intense exercise, especially those lasting over 30 minutes, the loss of electrolytes and carbohydrates may warrant the use of a sports drink for better rehydration and energy replenishment.
