Why should you drink a glass of lukewarm water in the morning?

The way we start the day is important, so it is important to practice a routine that will improve the whole state of the organism. It's true that drinking a glass of lukewarm water in the morning won't reduce the number on the scale when you step on it, but it does speed up your metabolism.

"Consumption of lukewarm water helps the digestive system and prevents bloating, as well as the release of excess fluids in the body," say nutritionists.

Removes respiratory tract infections

If you have a throat and sinus infection, practice drinking a glass of lukewarm water in the morning.

"If you have a blocked nose, it helps to clear and open the airways because the heat will clear the mucus faster. The temperature of the liquid we drink can also affect cold symptoms," says Dr. Nesochi Okeke-Igbokwe.

It affects the health of the teeth

That a glass of lukewarm water on an empty stomach affects the health of the teeth is less known, but experts show that it helps to have healthy teeth.

"Due to the cold water, the enamel can be damaged and thus cause pain," says the doctor, and warns that the water should not be too hot. It is recommended to be at room temperature.

It stimulates digestion

Warm water stimulates blood circulation in the intestines and improves digestion.

She adds that unlike cold water, warm water hydrates faster. In combination with food, it dissolves fats faster, which are therefore easier to digest.

Reduces pain

The warm water reaches the blood flow in the tissues and allows the muscles to relax, which affects the reduction of pain.

"It helps with all kinds of pain, from menstrual pain to joint pain. In addition, if you drink warm water before going to bed, you will fall asleep faster and be fuller for longer, so you will not wake up at night for food. And when you wake up, you will be fresh,” says Okeke Igbokwe.
