The Men's Health Big Book of Food and Nutrition (Water)

Your body needs water no doubt, your body is 75% water! I use for some of my nutritional guide tips a book called The Men's Health Big Book of Food and Nutrition, a book I HIGHLY recommend getting if you plan on going on a diet and/or you want to learn more about good nutrition. This book has completely changed my life and my diet. So anyways back to the nutrition tip for the day.

Water: Water has had many studies done on it and the two that the book The Men's Health Big Book of Food and Nutrition mentions is a study done that was in the journal Obesity Research, those who drink water regularly consumer on average about 200 fewer calories a day than those who opt for sweeter drinks. Another study mentioned was that a glass of water before breakfast may reduce daily food intake by 13%.

As you can probably imagine I am drinking water while I write this and there is no other drink like water to get the clean feeling throughout your entire body. Water truly is the best beverage around.

Please Note: Flavored water is not the same regular water. This blog was not talking about if you switch sweeter beverages for flavored water. Only pure clean all natural water has these affects. Flavored water usually contains a load of sodium and artificial sweetener. Both of which make flavored water and other sweeten beverages not nearly as good for you as just plain water.
