Did you know? The "water" you drink plays a very important role in the morning. As water slowly flows to every corner of your body, energetic cells gain the strength to start a new day. So, save beverages with additives for the afternoon! To meet your health needs, choose the right morning water to avoid burdening your body!
4 Major Benefits of Morning Water
1. When you wake up in the morning, the food in your stomach has already been digested. At this time, drinking water is like flushing a toilet, washing away any residue on the stomach walls completely clean.
2. About tens of seconds after drinking morning water, it reaches every corner of your body. It can promote the circulatory metabolism of cells, helping your body wake up from sleep, and has a refreshing effect.
3. People also sweat during sleep, so water is continuously lost. Morning water can replenish the water lost during sleep, hydrating your cells and making your skin look full and elastic.
4. It can dilute urine, flush the urethra, and act as a stool softener, allowing you to smoothly expel waste retained in the body. It can also gradually thin the blood, reducing its concentration and preventing blood pressure from spiking.
The best water temperature for your first morning glass of water is...
1. Hot Water
You can't gulp down scalding hot water while blowing on it. It's better to wait until it cools down!
2. Warm Water
Warm water is closer to or slightly higher than human body temperature. It has a warming effect on internal organs and can maintain smooth circulation and intestinal function.
3. Cool Water
Cool water is closer to or slightly below room temperature. This temperature of water is the most pleasant to drink, but it is not suitable for morning consumption.
4. Ice Water
Although ice water can provide a momentary, refreshing coolness, drinking it in the morning can decrease the functional activity of cells and internal organs, accelerating the aging process.
How to Drink Good Water?
1. Boiling Method
When boiling water, it is recommended to leave the kettle lid open and boil for another 5-10 minutes after it starts boiling. This allows residual chlorine and trihalomethanes in the water to evaporate into the air, making the water less chlorinated.
2. Filtration Method
There is a wide variety of water purifiers on the market with very different purification principles, but a more expensive one is not necessarily the best. The quality of a water filter or pitcher depends on the filter cartridge. Besides choosing a brand and comparing prices, you should pay more attention to the effectiveness of the filter cartridge.
3. The Enhanced Method
Use a water purifier to filter the water, removing hardness, heavy metals, and the chlorine taste. Then, pour the filtered water into a kettle, bring it to a boil, and let it cool with the lid off to allow any remaining substances to evaporate into the air.
In addition to home water purifiers, the new 3M Instant Long-Lasting Filter Pitcher features a high-performance dual filter cartridge that can last up to 3 weeks. It can better meet the needs of renters, students, and office workers, allowing you to drink the cleanest and most delicious morning water anytime, anywhere.
