Water and Weight Loss - Water and The Body - The Health and Dietary Importance of Water in Relation to Metabolism, Weight Loss and Weight Management

Whatever weight management diet plan you are following, here is just a bit more good advice.

There is a vital connection between drinking water and fat loss. Incredible as it may seem, water is possibly the single most important factor in weight management, losing weight and keeping it off.

Water, and we mean virtually FREE tap water, is possibly the true permanent weight loss "magic potion"!

It is believed that when we metabolise or "burn" off fat, our body generates a similar quantity by weight of water, which, to our surprise, must be flushed out of the system by drinking water.

The minimum daily volume is around 60 fl.oz / 1.7 litres - By drinking less than this amount, the body feels threatened, and in self protection, will hang on to every molecule of water in the body, resulting in fluid retention. As a consequence there would be no "weight loss" on the scales.

Water can suppress the appetite naturally and helps the body metabolise stored fat. So by drinking water and correcting fluid auto-retention, more fat is used as fuel because the liver is free to metabolise fat at top speed.

The kidneys cannot function properly without enough water and when they don't work to capacity, some of their load is dumped on the liver forcing it to metabolise less fat. Remember - Eight (7.5 fl.oz / 0.2 litre) glasses or more a day, keeps the extra fat away!

Water helps to wash out by-products of metabolism, prevents accumulation of body toxins, helps in maintaining all normal body functions such as temperature control and electrolyte balance, and prevents constipation. Ample water is also important in preventing sagging skin during fat loss.

An overweight person needs more water than a thin person. Larger people have larger metabolic loads. Since we know that water is the key to fat metabolism, drinking water is essential to weight loss and maintaining good health during the stress of dieting. Dieters should keep in mind, that they normally receive a large portion of their daily water needs through their food, which can be seventy-to-ninety percent water.

During dieting, the food intake is reduced and thus, the person is not getting their normal supply of water let alone the extra water they need to flush out the metabolic by-products and this results in a "hidden hunger" in dieters as the body is craving food, not for its calorie content, but for its water content. The water is especially needed to keep the skin healthy. If the body can't get rid of the by-products from metabolising stored body fat via kidney excretion, the skin is called upon to help excrete these by-products.

People often overlook the role of the skin in excreting toxins. Water is not only a "magic potion" for fat loss, it is a "magic-cosmetic" for the skin.
