water is good for you

[0roo0roo]

Why: The kidneys need water to function properly. Without sufficient water for the kidneys, the kidneys cannot work adequately and so this effects some of the water going to the liver. One of the primary functions of the liver is metabolize fat into energy for the body. If the liver needs to do some of the work of the kidneys, the liver can not work as it should to metabolize fat and so more fat is stored in the body increasing weight and not using the fat as energy.
To emphasize:

* Water suppresses the appetite.
* Water metabolizes fat into energy.
* Increasing water input, reduces fat deposits.
* The body will not function properly without enough water and can not metabolize stored fat efficiently.
* Retained water shows up as excess weight.
* To get rid of excess water, one has to consume more water.
* Drinking water is essential for weight loss.
* Water helps muscle stimulation.
* It is important to drink water before and after exercise.
* One should drink two quarts of water

I spend all afternoon in the bathroom beacuse I drink water all day. I have a insulated mug I just keep filled with ice and water. I drink soda when I go to lunch but usually during the day it's just water.

I have a track meet tonight so I have 32 ounces of water and 32 ounces of Powerade. Let's see if I can drink both (probably not) 😛

I've drank nothing but water for the last 7 weeks. Before that, I was a dr. pepperaholic. Yes, it does feel good.

I try to drink enough to have my pee clear by noon.

Nothing like a tall glass of ice water on a hot day.
Of course beer has water in it, so either way 😀

i drink the 50 cents for a gallon bottled water from the supermarket cuz the tap water here tastes funky. i like the bottled water cuz it has no taste.

I do it pretty well. My gf says I am annoying since I tell her to drink more. She's know who's right when she's dead, MUAHAHAHA

Statistically, she will outlive you.

😛

Not when I st@b her in the eye. :|



Anyway, I think that stat crap is sorta dumb. Men also are involved in more wars, more drug consumption and other physically demanding activities (on average mind you). I don't drink, smoke or do anything else that's bad for the most part so I'm sure I'll be around a good long while

its the testosterone in our bodies that make us live shorter lives. Has nothing to do with work or war.

Same here, except I generally drank sprite. Now I can't stand drinking anything sweet. Feels good to be healthy and saves me money too.

I don't see why you guys don't just get a brita, paying for bottled water sucks!

Drinking water keeps you feeling full... which sucks for weight gainers.

 

[Fritzo]

Drinking lots of water isn't really needed. Though I can't find the original article about this, this article talks about pretty much the same thing: You get most of the water you need from food- drink water when you're thirsty!

Unless you like to pee all the time...


Here is the jist of the original article from CNN:

fat is hydro-phobic, not hydro-phillic


it means fat wont dissolve in water
