How is drinking water important to weight loss and other health?

Water Key

Water is key to any weight loss program. Drinking water before and after meals helps supress hunger by creating a feeling of fullness.

Drinking water while exercising also keeps you motivated, since dehydration can leave you tired and unable to finish your workout.

Water also purifies the body, flushing out toxins. It also keeps the kidneys clear of particles that may clog up the urinary tract. Water can even keep you healthy by helping your body to absorb the vitamins in your food and supplements. So drink up!
