On average, most of us need to drink half of our body weight in ounces. For example, if you weigh 200 lbs. you should drink 100 ounces of filtered water per day on an empty stomach, not with or directly after meals. Most people think that this is a huge amount but as they start to drink they realize they are re-establishing their sense of thirst and eventually are able to drink this amount easily.

Another healthy aspect of drinking this amount of clean water is the increased trips to the washroom. Most people think of this as an inconvenience however all you are doing is reducing the overall acidity and toxicity in the body by giving the kidneys enough water to do their job properly.

It gets absorbed quickly into your system (kidneys), and flushes out in a shorter amount of time than on a fuller stomach.

Drinking water on an empty stomach ensures proper absorption and utilization of this vital and essential nutrient.
