Water isn’t just essential for your survival. It is necessary every day to keep your body hydrated and healthy. Individuals chose to hydrate themselves at different times of day but while there is nothing like a refreshing cold coffee or juice on a hot day, nothing beats good old water. The fact is that the average human body is made up of 60% water which is one drink you can drink anytime which will always be good for you. However, all said and done, the biggest benefit water can give you is if you consume one glass of it as you wake up in the morning. Water is sodium and caffeine free making it the perfect way to hydrate your body. Drinking sodas, coffee, tea and fruit juices do not qualify as hydration and certainly not as valuable as good old H2O. Here are the benefits of drinking water on an empty stomach in the morning.

1Body convenient

While many drink water with meals which is a good thing, it can also be bad in certain ways. As per what doctor "Don Colbert M.D. The author of Eat This and Live" says, if you drink water while eating, it can neutralize the digestive enzymes or juices and cause a stomach upset. The ideal time to drink water is first thing in the morning as your stomach is totally empty and that won't affect digestion.

2Reduces Stomach acidity

When you experience heartburn it means that there is a high level of acidity in the stomach and the reflux action is causing heartburn or gastric reflux. At night the main source of hydrochloric acid in your body is your stomach which is produced throughout the night. Food dilutes this acid because acid is required to break up food but when there is no food and if acid levels are higher than usual, you are liable to suffer heartburn in the morning. Water then reduces the level of acidity in the stomach.

3Improves bowel movement

Drinking water the first thing in the morning can facilitate a smooth bowel movement. Constipation usually occurs when there is no water in our bodies. Consuming water helps break down food that has not been digested and this will in turn help in the elimination of waste process. Drink water to avoid constipation. 

 

4Maintains the balance of bodily fluid

Water helps in maintaining the balance of bodily fluid according to WebMD. As 60% of the body contains water, it is important that there is a balance between the different fluids in the body. This, in turn, ensures better circulation, digestions, absorption and transport of nutrients throughout the body. The process also results in the production of saliva which is decreased when you drink less water. The body cannot function well without fluid and when it finds that water is lacking, that triggers the feeling of thirst. 

5Keeps you satiated and controls calories

Drinking water after a meal will keep you satiated and full. Combined with the psychological action of feeling complete by drinking water after a meal, water thus controls calories by keeping you full. Water also improves digestion and prevents bloating.
