Does drinking water make you lose weight? Here are the advantages

Some time ago an American researcher declared that drinking water makes you lose weight.
She was immediately challenged: but how, what does it mean that drinking water makes you lose weight?
Water has zero calories , drinking it is good for your health, but fundamentally it does not make you lose weight or gain weight. At best, yes, it makes you feel fuller if you drink it before meals. But it ends there.
But no.
Now I will explain to you in which drinking water makes you lose weight and why in my opinion you must learn to drink it, but always considering some things to avoid overdoing it, since drinking too much water is as dangerous as drinking too little.

DRINKING WATER DOES YOU LOSE LOSS?

Drinking water makes you lose weight because it eliminates excess fluids and fights water retention.

I know, the usual hackneyed little phrase. Ok. Imagine that anything you ingest or drink has its own specific gravity. I think about fifty-two kilos. If I eat soup now, I’ll weigh half a kilo more. Does that mean I gained half a kilo? Absolutely not. There will come a time when I will work off that soup by going to the bathroom.

However, if I drink too little, my body will try to accumulate as much liquid as possible from the soup. Multiply this same mechanism for all the meals you eat, and you will soon realize that you need to drink to make sure your body doesn’t hold on to extra fluids. If you are used to hydration and you make it a norm, it does not create stagnation of liquids . I know people who just by drinking more water solved their swelling problems, losing even those three extra pounds that they couldn’t lose by dieting. It is for this reason that in diets it is recommended to drink more water.
Water makes you lose weight to the extent that it makes your metabolism more flexible .

Metabolism is like an engine. If you put on little fuel, you are forced to proceed very slowly, or you risk planting yourself in the middle of the road. The body works like this: if you want a flexible, that is, fast metabolism, you have to hydrate and nourish it in the right measure. Otherwise it slows down, because it tries to make the resources it has enough. If our body is made up mostly of water and you don’t drink enough, your metabolism tends to be more efficient, i.e. it saves energy.
Drinking water makes you lose weight because it helps fill you up.

Here, in this case as in the first, more than a real weight loss it is an indirect effect, but if you want to satisfy yourself easily, drink a good glass of water twenty minutes before a meal.
When to stop drinking water?
First of all it is better to drink a little more water during the day than in the evening, but still drinking throughout the day.
In addition, the consumption of water must be calibrated according to height, season, physical activity, how much you eat.
To figure out how much water to drink, do the pee experiment. If you have a transparent pee, you are drinking too much, if it is a very intense yellow, not much. Urine should be straw yellow in color.
In short, you have to avoid being obsessive, but at the same time avoid getting dehydrated.
In food, and also in water, virtue often lies somewhere in between.
