Did You Know Water Helps You Lose Weight?
May 6th, 2010
* 55% – 75% of your body weight is made up of water.
* Your body needs water to regulate its temperature, protect its organs and tissues, deliver nutrients and oxygen to its cells, remove waste and absorb vitamins and minerals.
* This is how much water you lose each day: 1.5 liters through urine, 1 liter through breathing, sweating and bowel movements.
* Water helps you lose weight. Often, when you feel hungry, you’re actually just thirsty.
Drink a glass of water, wait for about 15 minutes, then eat if you’re still hungry after that. Drinking a glass of water before every meal will help you feel fuller, faster and you eat less.
* Drinking enough water reduces bloating. If your body is constantly dehydrated, it stores extra water as a reserve in anticipation of becoming dehydrated again.
Being inactive is no reason to be complacent about your fluid intake. You can be dehydrated even in a cool environment such as an air-conditioned office.
Humans perspire 24 hours a day and when you don’t realize you’re losing fluids, that’s when it can get dangerous.
As a guideline, you should be drinking:
500 – 600ml 2 hours before your workout.
150 – 200ml every 15 – 20 minutes during your workout.
600 – 700ml immediately after your workout.
