drinking waterDrinking water is a proven weight loss method that many dieters don’t tap into (pardon the pun). If you’re looking for a more shapely physique, or simply crave better health, water can be your biggest ally. The second best part about water…it’s free!

Now, I know some of you prefer coffee, soda, juices, etc. That is perfectly fine, but there is no denying the following facts about water and weight loss.

* Water cleanses the body’s system of toxins and lipids

* Water has no calories

* Water maintains hydration, which in turn provides energy (less comfort food).

* Water prepares the body for exercise/activity

I could go on and on with the benefits of drinking H2O, and those are just a few points to illustrate what a great diet tool water is.

Dr. Barbara Levine, director of the human nutrition program at the Rockefeller University in New York City has been quoted as saying, “whatever the water is, tap or bottled, we need to drink more water,” “People are drinking far too much alcohol and caffeinated beverages, which are dehydrating.”

Now, nearly every workplace is outfitted with a cooler, bottled water, or some form to get you that sweet replenishing liquid of nature. There’s no reason you can’t substitute a cup of coffee or a soda for a nice tall cup of water during the day. Make it a point to steadily increase your water daily consumption. A good indicator that you’re drinking enough water is when urine is mostly are completely clear.
