H2OOOOOOoh ... And Weight Loss!
by Christian Goodman
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.
Many suspect that drinking water will help you feel fuller
thereby eating or craving less high calorie food. There's
some truth to that.
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.
Now we've all heard about our metabolism and its importance
to weight loss, but water? How does water come into play?
Well, it's like this..the liver is the internal organ that
metabolizes fat. It takes the stored fat (that fat which you
want to get rid of) and it turns it into energy.
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 people, it is 8 glasses of water per day.
But many people do require more - those who are already
carrying extra pounds or those who sweat a lot due to
exercise or temperature.
The great thing about the body is that it knows how to get
rid of excess water it doesn't need.
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.
The body receives about 30% of it's water via food intake.
In eating less, we are also getting less water.
So stay mindful of the need for water especially when
cutting down on food intake. And you don't need to wait
until you're parched to drink.
By the time you feel thirsty, the body has already begun the
process of storing water.
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. -
