Why You Should Drink Water on an Empty Stomach Immediately After Waking Up – Page 7

🕐 How Much Water Should You Drink in the Morning?

Experts recommend starting with 400–600 ml (about 2–3 glasses) of water right after waking up — before brushing your teeth or eating anything.

Here’s a simple guide:

First glass: Right after you wake up — to kickstart your system.
Second glass: About 15–20 minutes later — to continue the cleansing process.

Avoid drinking it all in one go. Sip slowly, giving your body time to absorb it.

Even though morning hydration is simple, a few mistakes can reduce its benefits:

🚫 Drinking ice-cold water: It can shock your digestive system and slow metabolism. Choose room temperature instead.

🚫 Skipping water after coffee: Coffee is dehydrating — always drink water before or after your morning caffeine fix.

🚫 Adding too much lemon: A few drops are enough. Too much acid can irritate your stomach.
