Reducing Diet Tip#3:

Drink at least 8 to 10 glasses of water a day.
Rationales:
1. Hydration
2. After waking up and before sleeping drink at least 2 glasses of water and 30minutes to 1 hour before eating or 2 hours after eating. Drink water instead of Sodas i.e coke, sprite, pepsi even the “DIET SODAS” because it contains more sugars and aspartame-which its metabolized product destroys kidney- the formalin. Energy drinks i.e. fit ‘n right, Tropicana, Cobra and the like – like coffee and tea it contains caffeine which is destructive to our heart. Caffeine also makes you crave more sweet or sugars.

3. Drinking 2 glasses of water right after a meal is not good because it destructs the stomach enzymes and it ads more bulk thus leading to faulty digestion. Better to drink water 30 min to 1 hour before eating or 2 hours after eating. (Source: Healing wonders of Diet)
4. Water- cold or not is still water! Don’t believe with shenanigans who thought that cold water is bad for health – it isn’t because again it is still water no more no less.
