Frequently Asked Questions
Does drinking water help with weight loss?
▼
Yes, several ways: reduces hunger, replaces caloric drinks, supports metabolism, and is necessary for fat breakdown. Studies show 1-2kg more weight loss over 12 weeks with adequate water.
Should I drink water before meals?
▼
Yes, drinking 500ml before meals reduces calorie intake by 75-90 calories per meal in studies. Simple strategy that works.
How much water for weight loss?
▼
Aim for 35-40ml per kg bodyweight minimum. More if exercising. The common '8 glasses' isn't one-size-fits-all - calculate based on your body.
Can water help with cravings?
▼
Often, yes. Thirst and hunger signals can be confused. Drink water first when cravings hit - wait 10 minutes. If still hungry, it's real hunger.
Does cold water burn more calories?
▼
Slightly - about 8 calories per glass as your body warms it. Not significant for weight loss, but every bit helps. Drink whatever temperature you prefer.
