Drinking water reduces appetite

A big glass of water helps you avoid snacking. You will also eat less at three main meals because your stomach is full of water, leaving less room for food. Studies show that overweight people who drank 500 ml of water half an hour before meals for 12 weeks lost 1.4 kg more than those who did not drink water.

Metabolism booster water

Water boosts your body's fat burning. A German study found that drinking two large glasses of room temperature water increased your metabolic rate by 30% in just 30 minutes.

The effect of cold water is stronger

When you drink cold water, your body has to work harder to warm it up. According to a study published in the Journal of Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism, drinking 250 ml of cold water helps your body burn 7 calories. Drinking 10 glasses of cold water a day for a week burns 490 calories. Continue this habit and you will lose 3 kg just by drinking water.
