BENEFITS OF DRINKING WATER IN THE MORNING
For a natural resource so free it is more valuable than gold having the following benefits.
• IT REFRESHES AND REHYDRATES THE BODY
Downing lots of water after waking up in the morning is refreshing and kick starts your day by making you feel good. Also helps to rehydrate the body because sleeping for a long period dehydrates the body no matter the amount of water drank the previous day.
• FLUSHES TOXINS
Unknown to you, while you sleep your body cleanses it’s self and toxins are released. Drinking water helps to flush down these toxins and other waste materials released.
• TACKLES HEADACHE
As mentioned earlier the human brain is made up of about 73% water. So therefore absence or shortage of water in the brain could cause serious headache, drinking water helps prevent this occurrence.
• TACKLES ARTHRITIS
Joints are mostly filled with fluid which increases and decreases due to your water intake. When you take enough water it helps to restore the fluid and ensures the joints move freely.
• WEIGHT REDUCTION
Drinking at least 16 ounces of water in the morning can boost your metabolism by 24%. Having a faster metabolism reduces weight gain.
