Does water help maintain a fast metabolism?

Question

I drink 4 - 6 water bottles a day and I heard it helps to make my metabolism faster? I'm not sure if this is true and if so what happens next?

Answer 1

water is good...drink a lot regularly

Answer 2

I personally do not think this is true. I have a really fast metabolism, but I only drink about 2-3 water bottles a day. But it could just be my genes.

Answer 3

Water is so good for you.

It helps bring nourishment to the body. Metabolism is part of your muscular functions. The more lean muscle mass you have the higher your metabolism. Water will help your muscles by giving them fuel, and lubrication to remove toxins from the muscles. However, water alone will NOT increase your metabolism --- building lean muscle mass will.

Answer 4

Absolutely it does. They say the first and most important step in a diet is drinking plenty of water. It keeps all cells in your body hydrated (so they're not shriveled) and they are not restricted on oxidative processes, so essentially they're all running at full steam. So yes, water and hydration are key to keeping your metabolism up.

High metabolism is typically good... means you're in good shape and health. What do you mean 'what next?'

Answer 5

You have to stay active, eat 5 to 6 times a day, healthy food, lots of water..don't over eat at each meal. Your stomach is only the size of your fist. So keep your food portions that size and each often. Its better for your body to realise its getting food on a regular schedule basis. Drinking water is highly important as well. Your body is up to 70% water..If it has enough ..it will perform at top notch levels just like any machine well maintained. Okay...I only started two Mondays ago and All I do is walk one hour every morning. I wear a calorie counter monitor to loose weight by the numbers. I have already lost one pant size and 9 pounds. I am a woman and have three kids and this is the method I use when I gain weight.. I am now at a size two and everyone is always amazed that I have had three kids. This is what I do below when I throw on a few extra pounds. It always works..No diet pills, no energy drinks..just me walking and getting the water I need. Of course I watch what I eat and the Lean Cuisine meals are great for that since the calories per box are 180 to 380 per box. Just make sure you eat healthy every three to four hours so your body will perform at its max. Here it is: Helpful Tips for weight loss: 1)A good way to loose weight is to use a calorie counter watch Keep to a 1,200 food intake Add 1,200 plus 3,500 (equals one pound of fat) ...and that is the total amount of calories you need to burn each day. Its actually really easy once you start watching the numbers and it doesn't seem like work or exercise. Its just a matter of changing the way you think about loosing weight. I use this method when i gain some pounds. The first time I did this I went from 168 to 127 2) Most people do not get enough water in their system. Water is your body's principal chemical component, comprising, on average, 60 percent of your weight. Every system in your body depends on water. For example, water flushes toxins out of vital organs, carries nutrients to your cells and provides a moist environment for ear, nose and throat tissues. Lack of water can lead to dehydration, a condition that occurs when you don't have enough water in your body to carry out normal functions. To determine if you are getting enough water use this simple formula.. Take your weight, for example 150 pounds and divide by 2. Take your answer which is 75 lbs and change it to ounces, in this case 75 ounces. That is how many ounces of water you need a day. Your body performs mostly on water. If you make sure you get enough water everyday your body will perform at top notch and your body will no longer have the cravings of junk food. You will have a better performing body system to help you work out and feel better thru out your day.
