Hydration is one of the essential elements of a healthy life. Every day our body loses two to three liters of water from sweating or movement, even as we breathe. These functions are essential for our survival so we must compensate for the loss of fluid. Maintaining balance is important in order to avoid dehydration or to avoid water overdose in the body. Dehydration causes a loss of mood, a dry skin and high blood pressure. An unheated brain needs more sforco to function. Specialists so far have said we should consume eight glasses of water a day. But recent studies show that this amount depends on our body weight and the environment in which we live. The amount we need to consume is 2.5 - 3.7 liters per day for males and 2- 2.7 liters for females.

Furthermore, cold water is not recommended to drink during feeding because it slows down digestion.

Cold water is advised to consume when you train at the gym because it lowers the body's internal temperature and gives it more energy. Experts advise people to drink water at ambient or lukewarm temperatures during feeding. This way they will have better digestion, better blood flow and faster elimination of toxins.
