Drink 1-2 glasses of water immediately after waking up
This helps your body get the best preparation after a long night without water replenishment and prepare for your activity day. Drinking water as soon as you wake up also helps remove toxins from your body.
Drinking 1 glass of water half an hour before meals helps lose weight
If you want to lose weight, drink water before meals. Drinking water before meals will help "deceive" your stomach, making your stomach feel bloated so that you don't feel cravings during main meals.
Do not drink water before, during or immediately after meals
This advice seems contradictory to what was said above. If you are in normal health and do not need to lose weight, follow this advice. Do not drink water half an hour before meals, while eating and 1 hour after meals. Drinking water before, during or immediately after meals will dilute gastric juice, affecting food digestion.
Drink a glass of water when you feel hungry
Water is the most effective and economical weight loss drink. When you feel hungry, drink a glass of water. After about 10 minutes, if you still feel hungry, eat lightly, often the feeling of craving will disappear.
Drinking water helps increase brain activity
About 75% of the brain is water, so it is essential for brain activities. When you feel tired and lack concentration at work, drink a glass of water, you will be surprised by its effectiveness.
Drink more water during the day than in the evening
You should drink plenty of water during the day to avoid affecting nighttime sleep, limiting having to wake up to urinate.
Drink plenty of water during the day if you don't have a nighttime urination habit
Night is the time for the body to recover and metabolize. If hydrated, this process is more effective, helping the body not to be dehydrated the next morning.
Drinking plenty of water before and after exercise helps increase muscle strength
When exercising, the body loses water faster and needs more nutrients for muscles. Drinking water before and after exercise helps increase exercise efficiency and reduce fatigue.
When you are sick, pregnant or breastfeeding, you should drink more water.
When you have a fever, drinking water helps replenish water and supports cooling down. Pregnant and breastfeeding women need more water than usual, about 10 glasses per day, to ensure health for both mother and baby.
