With up to 60 percent of your body containing water by the time you reach adulthood, there is no disputing that water plays a pivotal part in your natural development. Yet, can water affect your weight loss as well? Research seems to indicate so… Alongside helping to remove dangerous toxins out of your body and keep you hydrated, water can also trigger natural fat loss. In a recent clinical trial it was discovered that consuming enough water can help to suppress your cravings and get rid of fake hunger cravings that are commonly caused as a consequence of thist. Simply drink 1-2ounces of water before every meal, and this will cause you to feel full and eat less. But there is more… According to Professor R. Clemens from the University of South California, swallowing ice water can also encourage fat loss. During his research he discovered that by drinking 8 ounces (240gm) of cold water every day, your fats will be harnessed to bring the temperature of this water up from 4°C to 37.5°C (body temperature) , therefore causing extra calorie burn. And in theory this should help you to lose body fat… For example to make just 1gm of water to 10°C, your body will need to burn 1 calorie. That means to bring 240gm of ice cold water to body temperature; you will need to burn 8.04 calories. Water and fat loss To experience positive dietary results from consuming water, nutritionists suggest that you swallow up to 8 glasses of water a day. However, for increased results, your weight will also need to be reviewed. Just 1 ounce of water serves 2lbs of your weight, so if you weighed around 200lbs and wanted to enhance your metabolic rate, you would need to ingest 100 ounces of water on a daily basis. If however, you do not want to only depend on water to enhance your fat loss, the support of a medically tested capsule such as Proactol can help. Medically discovered during 6 medical trials to: make up to 28% of your dietary fat too large to be absorbed, suppress your cravings, improve cholesterol and increase energy levels, Proactol has successfully supported thousands of consumers to take control of their fat loss and lose a steady 1-2lbs a week.
