Why is water so important in a weight management program? We all know that it can fill you up between meals. But did you know that as fat breaks down, water provides the body with the fluids needed to help eliminate the resulting wastes? Water also helps control regularity, carry nutrients to where your body needs them and helps to regulate your body temperature. And that’s not all - water functions as a “joint lubricant” and a “cell shock absorber” too.
Water Facts:
- 75% of Americans are chronically dehydrated.
- Even mild dehydration will slow down one’s metabolism as much as 3%.
- Dieters in the University of Washington study found that one glass of water shut down the midnight hunger pangs.
- In 37% of Americans, the thirst mechanism is so weak that it is often mistaken for hunger.
