Weight loss and water intake

Now I know what you are thinking. How can water make a difference in weight loss if has no calories? I'll give you one good reason. It can boost your metabolic rate.

Yes sir it can. By eating a lot of unhealthy foods, get a lot of toxins in our bodies. And those just clog our system, making it slower. And the best solution for pollution is dilution. By drinking plenty of water, you will help your body get rid of the toxins and let it work properly. Thus an increased metabolic rate and more calories burned.

Now, how much water should you drink? The recommended 8 glasses is a good rule of thumb. And that is clean water, nothing added to it. You have to add more if you drink caffeinated drinks, if you exercise and if the weather is warm.
