Water for Weight Loss

-

Have you been looking around for the miracle fountain that will help you solve your weight dilemmas? Did you know that it’s been there all along in your house? The fountain I am talking about here is flowing right from your faucet. If you’re wondering if water can actually help you lose some pounds, yes it can.
It’s common knowledge that water is one of the most vital substances for our survival. But how does water help people who wanted to lose weight?


Appetite Suppressant
There is nothing more cheaper, readily available, and effective appetite suppressant than water. You may have noticed that by drinking liberal amount of water before meals will cause you to feel full easily without finishing your plate. That’s because the brain cannot differentiate thirst from hunger. When the brain sends signals that you are hungry, by drinking water, you will be able to relieve these signals without the additional calories. Just like food, water fills and stretches the stomach lining which is why the brain will think that you are already full.
Flushes out Impurities
No product can ever beat water in terms of cleansing the body from toxins, impurities, and retained fluid. Those who are chronically dehydrated will tend to keep more water in certain places. As one drinks more water, the body will try to get rid of those that it doesn’t need such as those retained in the ankles and thighs. It will trust that as water keeps coming in, there will be no necessity to store water in such areas. And because of good hydration, the kidneys will also work well in straining impurities and keep flushing them out of the body. Indirectly, water intake will also affect liver functioning. A well-working kidney is likely to reduce the workload on the liver, which is responsible for fat metabolism.
Aids in Metabolism
According to a study published in the 2003 Journal of Endocrinology and Metabolism, metabolic rates of their 14 participants increased with an average of 30 percent within 10 minutes after drinking water and were sustained for almost an hour later. The reason behind such is due to the effort that our body has to exert to warm up the cold water that goes in our system. Warming up the water will cause the body’s metabolism to increase. Water also improves muscle tone for it to contract more easily.

Peaches Anti-Cancer

Peaches are good for you because they are a source of vitamins A and C and they are a good source of fiber especially with the peal. Peaches are also a good source of potassium and contain some calcium, magnesium, phosphorus and folate. Though low in calories—one cup of sliced peaches has only 60 calories—and composed of 80 percent water, peaches are packed with fiber, vitamins, minerals, and carotenoids. The dose of fiber in peaches acts as a gentle laxative, aids digestion, and may also help combat cancer.  Peaches is rich in cancer-fighting vitamin A in the form of beta carotene,  as well as the immune-boosting vitamin C, which also protects against heart disease. Rich in iron and potassium, peaches help ensure proper functioning of cells, the balance of fluid and electrolytes in the body, and nerve signaling.  Lutein and zeaxanthin —two carotenoids found in peaches—help guard against blindness caused by age-related macular degeneration.
