Water makes up approximately 60 percent of our body composition. One can imagine, then, that it is very important for certain processes in the body. When the subject is weight loss, it is even more relevant, since the liquid prevents false hunger signals and reduces swelling. “The adequate consumption of water helps to reduce fluid retention by increasing the frequency of peeing. Not to mention that it contributes to the proper functioning of the organs,”.

If you’re not used to drinking water during the day, here are some ideas:

Set a daily goal and increase it gradually;
Set a schedule and keep a bottle of water handy (you can set your cell phone alarm);
Bet on flavored water for a special taste! Just add small pieces of fruit (such as lemon, pineapple and orange) to your drink.
