The benefits of water are many and well known, but the morning glass of water can prove to be a simple and very important ally for your health and is recommended by many nutritionists.
See the benefits if you decide to adopt a simple habit: drink about 450 ml or half a liter of water as soon as you get out of bed in the morning and before breakfast or coffee.
Activation of metabolism
A large and necessarily cool glass of water after waking up has been shown to increase your metabolism by up to 24%.
Immediate hydration
You may not feel thirsty as soon as you wake up but the truth is that your body is "thirsty" and dehydrated because you have not drunk water for about 7-8 hours during sleep.
Detoxification
Fluid intake helps cleanse the body of toxins. Drinking fluids immediately after waking up enhances this function.
Better brain function
Brain tissue contains 75% water. The brain does not function fully when it is not properly hydrated. In this case, you may feel exhausted, have increased fatigue, or changes in your mood.
Decreased appetite
According to a study, people who drink a glass of water before each meal lose 2-3 pounds in a period of three months. Water fills the stomach with a substance that has 0 calories, while making you feel full. Drinking enough water as soon as you wake up in the morning is a great way to cleanse your colon, allowing for better absorption of nutrients.
