⚡️HOW WATER SUPPORTS FAT LOSS:
Because thermogenesis is partly regulated by sympathetic activity, substances that interact with the sympathetic nervous system can be considered as potential agents for weight reduction. Sympathomimetic compounds such as ephedrine (not safe) are effective at increasing thermogenesis, but can have undesirable side effects. Safe, preferably nonpharmacological substances that can stimulate thermogenesis WITHOUT causing side effects are hence preferable. Water can be once such agent (Vij et al., 2014).
✅MECHANISMS TO DECREASE WEIGHT:
One study demonstrates that drinking 500ml of water 30 minutes prior to eating, continued for 8 weeks, actually translates into body weight/fat loss, possibly involving combination of thermogenesis, distention of gastrointestinal organs, and/or changes in osmolarity. Additionally, drinking excess water also suppresses appetite; as depicted thus supporting water as a natural appetite suppressant (Brown et al., 2006).
💥TAKEAWAY:
Before you get carried away, let’s be real. Drinking insane amounts of water is not going to result in DRASTIC weight loss. However, drinking sufficient amounts of (CLEAN)water may assist you with your weight loss efforts. Remember dehydration RAISES Cortisol too. Just remember its best to avoid drinking WITH your meals, as this can impair digestion (Via diluting stomach acid, and stimulating sympathetic nervous system).
