It may not come as a surprise to you that water is good for your health. And it’s been widely publicized that drinking water can help people who are trying to lose weight. Few people would disagree, but there are also few who truly understand why this is so.

Some believe it is because it helps give you a full feeling, reducing the desire to eat as much.

It’s also been suggested that keeping your hands busy with a water glass or bottle helps reduce the need to eat needlessly.

There may be plenty of truth to these suggestions, but water also fulfulls a fundamental need for the body. It is needed for metabolism.

How does water factor in?

Energy is created from stored fat. The liver metabolizes the fat.

But the liver also has other functions and one of those functions involves helping the kidneys out anytime they are not working at full capacity. In order to keep the liver optimized for metabolizing stored fat, it’s critical to have the kidneys carrying their full load.

The kidneys need quite a bit of water to function. But if insufficient amounts are not consumed by the body – it will store water. And the storeage locales within the body are not usually in places we would suspect or desire.

One way to help the body eliminate water ’storage’ is to let it have confidence that a continuous stream of water is coming down the pipe and there is no need to hoard.

For most of us, this means a minimum of eight 8-ounce glasses per day.

Overweight people as well as those living in a hot climate or exercising intensely require more, often twice the amount we think of as ‘optimum’.

The body is very efficient at regging rid of water that is not needed.

It’s wise to remember that most weight loss programs are going to restrict the caloric intake in some way. This automatically means you are going to be taking in less water.

About 30% of our total water intake comes from foods we are eating. Decrease your food intake and chances are you will be reducing the amount of water your body is used to getting.

Remember the need for water – and drink it before you feel dried out. You can add some natural flavor as well by adding lime or lemon juice.

Waiting until you are parched to drink water, means the body has already starting the storage process.

I have seen truly amazing results in my Weight Loss Breeze program. I use water in the program but in a completely different way than I’ve ever seen in any other program.
