A glass at dawn

The human body is about 70 percent water, so obviously drinking water is important. But having a tall glass of H2O first thing in the morning—prior to eating—has a host of health benefits, including:

• Renewing cells: Drinking water upon awakening increases the production rate of new blood and muscle cells.

• Losing weight: Drinking chilled water, particularly, speeds up the body’s metabolism.

• Purifying the colon: By drinking water before eating, you’re cleansing your colon and aiding nutrient absorption.
