Benefits of Warm Water

Benefits of Warm Water

Did you know there are many health benefits from drinking warm water, ideally around 130-160°F? Warm water can improve your circulation and relieve muscle and joint pain by expanding blood vessels and improving blood flow. Warm water in the morning can also boost your metabolic rate and increase your body temperature, which can help with weight loss. Warm water can even stimulate digestion, break down food particles faster, and help your body absorb essential nutrients. If you dislike plain, warm water, try adding lemon slices, ginger, cucumber, or flavored tea.
