What is water therapy
- As the name suggests in this therapy you have to drink at least 10-15 glass of water every day.
- Water forms the major portion of our body.
- It will keep you healthy and free from ailments.
- If you consume water as soon as you get up, it can give you multiple benefits.
How to start water therapy in the morning
- As soon as you get up, drink at least 6 to 7 glasses of water (approx. 1.5 liters).
- Do not take tea or coffee before drinking water because it will not give you the results.
- Avoid eating anything; even a small amount of anything can interfere with this therapy.
- Avoid drinking any beverage the previous night that has alcohol content.
Benefits of water therapy
- You get bright, radiant skin because water removes all the toxins from the blood, leaving behind fresh skin.
- It helps in colon cleansing that leads to absorption of nutrients from the food you eat.
- If you drink water early in the morning, new blood and muscle cells are produced at an increasing rate.
- Water therapy gives a balance to the lymph system of your body.
- When the lymph glands in your lymph system get enough amount of water, they can fight the infections and help you carry out your daily chores easily.
- Water consumption prevents your skin from getting saggy as it improves the metabolism of your body.
- More intake of water will result in an increase in perspiration (sweating).
- Sweating will remove dirt, dead cells and dust particles from your skin pores.
- It gives suppleness to the skin.
- Initially, you might have some difficulty in drinking 6-7 glass of water in the morning but slowly you can do it.
