Who knew? Hydration helps make insulin (and all hormones) work better.⁠ If you asked me what the most underrated pillar of health was, hydration ranks high on my list.⁠⠀

💦 Drink water to meet your fat-loss goals. In a 12-week study of older adults who followed a weight loss diet, the group who consumed one serving of water before meals lost 44% more weight than the non-water group.⁠⠀
⁠⠀
💦 Drink water to detoxify your body by helping it flush toxins out of your system!⁠⠀
⁠⠀
💦 Drink water to boost your metabolism. Research shows plain water can boost metabolism by 24–30% for 1.5 hours after drinking a 17-ounce (500-ml) serving.⁠⠀
⁠⠀
💦 Drink water to improve your BG management. It helps insulin work better and be more sensitive. ⁠⠀
⁠⠀
💦When we are the slightest dehydrated our adrenals signal to the body to reduce fat loss, as it can not keep up with the toxic load of burning fat cells. ⁠⠀
