How Drinking More Water Can Help You Lose Weight
For decades it has been widely known that drinking more water can help you lose weight. There are numerous research studies showing that increasing your daily water intake, not only benefits weight-loss, but also helps with maintaining your loses after your weight-loss journey finishes. You just need to keep drinking the stuff!
Drinking Water Can Help Burn More Calories
Research has shown that drinking 500ml of cold water increases the amount of calories you burn, (20% – 30% boost), for up to an hour, by increasing your, resting metabolic rate (RMR). The best way to kick start your metabolism everyday is to drink at least 500ml of water every morning when you wake up. 
Then after 30-45 minutes have breakfast. Not only does this rehydrate your body for the day ahead, but it also helps flush out the toxins. Continue throughout the day with your water intake, grabbing a total of between 2.5 and 4.0 litres. This will not only keep you well hydrated and satiated, it will help with overall energy and body efficiency.
Suppressed Appetite
Drinking 500ml of cold water 30-45 minutes before a meal can actually suppress your appetite, reduce bloating and help with digestion. The benefits of reducing appetite for weight-loss, simply means you’ll eat less calories and still be satiated. In addition drinking water before meals everyday can play an important role in weight management. And in many cases help prevent weight gain.
Other Benefits Of Drinking More Water
There are many benefits to drinking water other than to help with either weight-loss or weight management. These include, but are not limited too,
- Reduction in headaches or migraine
- Alleviation of constipation
- Help with physical performance
- Helps with energy brain performance
- Mood
- Helps with kidney stones
- Complete Hydration
Bear in mind that you also get water from the foods you eat, (meat, fish and especially fruits and vegetables). as well as from beverages, such as coffee, tea and milk. 
You should always drink water when you’re thirsty, and drink enough to quench your thirst. Hunger may not be actually hunger, it may be thirst disguised. So try drinking 500ml of water first, wait about 30 minutes, if you’re still hungry, then it’s time to eat. Headaches, bad moods, concentration and hunger could all be early warning signs of mild dehydration.
The Bottom Line
Our bodies are made of between 50 – 65% water, (50-60% for women / 60-65% for men). Its the most important single thing we need to survive, without water you’d be dead within days rather than weeks. The body needs varying amounts of water, (depending upon things like age, sex, height and gender), to carry out many essential functions, such as balancing the internal temperature and keeping cells alive. Not only does it keep us alive, it flushes out the waste materials, and aids in helping us stay healthy. It helps with energy, physical activity, and can play a major role in weight-loss and weight management. And the best part, all you have to do is drink enough, (2.5 to 4 litres), everyday, and the body will do the rest for you.
So the message is…. Just drink it
