The Water Diet

“A man who drinks only water has a secret to hide from his fellow men.” - Charles Baudelaire. The secret is that water is one of the most vital constituent and nutrients of your body. Water plays an important role in maintaining overall good health and helps in reducing weight. You require adequate amount of water intake to metabolize fats, lubricate joints, to maintain supple skin, and eliminate wastes and toxins from the body. Lack of water intake can lead to a loss of muscle endurance, constipation, headaches and drowsiness. Dehydration can set your heart racing, body will not be able to regulate temperature and you would probably collapse. A lot of people believe that water weight is due to drinking of too much water, however it is just a myth. People, who don’t drink enough water tend to gain more weight as the body goes on a starving mode and retains water to overcome lack of intake of water. Water constitutes up to seventy five percent of muscles, eighty five percent of our brains, ninety percent of blood and fifteen percent of fats. You have to drink as much water as required to restore water lost by urination, perspiration and breathing. Water diet is also sometimes known as cold water diet, and unlike other diets neither it limits food consumption nor does it require exercises. In other words water diet supplements other traditional diets. The focal point of water diet is only a vital and simple part of basic nutrition that is water. According to nutritionists your body requires at least 8 glasses or 64 ounces of water per day. Water is probably the only nutritional guideline component that is so simple, cheap and readily available and still so underutilized. Drink 8 glasses of water for the rest of your life in addition to other fluids that you drink. Read the article to know more about water diets.
