Many people believe that it is important to drink a lot of water. Is it true? Yes, it is true because about 70% of our body is made of water, so the issue is HOW TO DRINK WATER.
It is said that it is good to drink about a half a gallon of water a day. This is true, but when do you drink water? Any time? During meals? After meals? Please drink water about 1 hour before meals. Because if you drink water just before meals, you lose your appetite. If you drink water during or after meals, digestive juices become thinner and the food you eat will not be absorbed correctly.
Now do you drink hot water or cold water?
Please drink water which has a temperature that is more than your body
temperature, that is, more than 97 degree F. Why? You would like to drink
cold water especially on a hot day. But it is not recommended. Because
it is said that if the temperature in your intestines lowers by 2 degrees
F, bacteria in your intestines spread throughout the whole body through
the blood vessels, causing various kinds of diseases.
Even if it is room temperature, if your body is not strong enough, drinking too much water can damage your body. If you have a chronic disease, please reconsider the temperature of the water you are drinking.
The appropriate amount of water depends on each body constitution. If you have diarrhea, you need to reduce the amount of water. One more thing, please do not include other beverages such as soda, coffee, tea, beer, etc. into how much water it is that you drink. Please take water through drinking only water.
