Does Drinking 10 cups of water a day burn 300 calories?

Question

I heard that ina movies and was juss wondering if it was true

Answer 1

It's pure B.S.

Your body is burning calories constantly at about 2000 calories a day. If you want to burn more calories, you have to do something.... like exercise. Swallowing 10 cups of water might use, at most, 10 calories. Having water in your system burns no calories at all.

Answer 2

No. Just living and breathing burns a baseline number of calories, but the act of eating and drinking doesn't burn any calories.

Calories Burned for Activity: Quiet Lying Quietly
Doing Nothing, Lying In Bed Awake, Listening To Music Not Talking or Reading: 68 calories per hour
Assuming a body weight of: 150 lbs


Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR)
This is the amount of calories you burn just by being alive – even when you are lying down, doing nothing. BMR accounts for approximately 60% of the calories burned for an average person.

Answer 3

I learned in a magazine that for every 1 ounce of cold water you drink, you burn one calorie. This is done because your body has to wirk to heat up the water to your body temperature.

Answer 4

Look you have to drink 10 cups / or 2litres of water a day so you don't dehydrate (some ppl would include juice/coffee/tea and soda in that but that has so much KJ or Cal's)

The point is you need 2be fully hydrated for your body to function at its maximum potential..

That's why you'll burn more cal's /Kj's drinkin that much water because our bodys are 70% water in tissue content....

Answer 5

the guy above me is correct the temperature of the water makes the diifference the colder the water the more the body has to work to cool it thus burning caloies.the body has to bring water to body temp in order to be used the cooling burns calories-FACT

Answer 6

No, but if You Drink that much Water, You will probably eat less Food. So, maybe you'll consume 300 less Calories !

Answer 7

yeah, when you're doing it while jogging.
