Losing weight: How and how much water do you take?

Hydration is vital for your diet. Water with gas, how fat? What about sports drinks? Tips to keep your fluid intake while exercising.  




To achieve proper weight down, your body has to work properly and hydration plays a very important role. 60% of our body is water. That ratio should be maintained for all bodily functions run smoothly, from the hydration of the skin to the last step of our metabolism.

The sparkling water, add calories?? 

The water, still or sparkling, not add calories . And it's very useful to have both options because many people fail to drink enough liquid each day because they do not like water. But I do accept, for example, with soda or sparkling water. Furthermore, the aggregate can limit their intake gas because it produces a greater satiety.

Collect liquid to your exercise plan

Exercise practice sweat rate increases, which increases the loss of water from the body. This condition is enhanced if the temperature and humidity are high, as may occur in a typical summer day outdoor exercise ourselves.

For the mechanism of thermoregulation (which helps maintain a proper body temperature) to work properly, it is imperative that the amount of fluid lost through sweat is recovered. We must recover the lost dropwise to our body to maintain the temperature you need. The best advice is to take a glass of water every 15 to 20 minutes of activity.

What to eat and / or drink before, during and after physical activity is a fact that all physically active people should know. And is linked to the physiology of our body when it is moving. It is estimated that our requirement we need 1cc water based. of water for each calorie gives us a diet. So if our intake contains 2,000 calories per day need to take 2 liters of water. In addition, we must add that sweat losses depend on many factors like weather, exercise intensity and body size, among others.

The sports drinks (made with carbohydrates and minerals) must be taken into account when the time and intensity of training required.

Tips to hydrate

* Choose mineral natural water or hydration base. The base is drink water to hydrate but often by a matter of taste and habits are not formed from small, people refuse to drink it. 

* Have a drink bottle in the office and force you to take it before noon.

* Divide total daily intake of at least 2 liters in bottles of 500 cc. So, plan ahead and be easier not to succumb to the "idea of lazy" giving having to take this large amount of liquid. 

* Hydrate before you feel thirsty, as this is a poor indicator of the lack of liquid. When feel means that, to some extent, we are already dehydrated.

* Taking a more water between meals. Do with the food hamper the digestive work.

* The tea we drink in the morning or evening do not count toward the minimum required, as are extra.
