The Water Diet
By admin on Sep 5, 2010 in Health and Fitness
Researchers presenting last week at an American Chemical Society meeting gave a shot in the arm to a weight-loss technique that’s been around forever. In a study of middle-aged and older adults, they found that drinking two cups of water before a meal may speed weight loss when dieting.
On the face of it, it’s good advice. The benefits of getting plenty of fluid go well beyond just helping us achieve healthy weights. As far as weight loss goes, we’ve also recognized for some time that confusing thirst for hunger can lead to eating when we’re not really hungry. By staying well-hydrated, we short-circuit that confusion before it even begins.
