Mistake 1: Not Drinking Enough Water

One of the most common mistakes is not drinking enough water throughout the day.

The amount each person needs varies depending on factors such as climate, physical activity, and health status.

In general, it’s recommended to drink between 2 to 3 liters of water daily. Don’t wait until you’re thirsty — thirst is already a sign that your body is dehydrated.

Mistake 2: Drinking Water Too Quickly

Another common mistake is drinking water too quickly. When you do this, your body doesn’t have time to properly absorb the liquid. This can lead to bloating and discomfort. The key is to drink slowly, allowing the water to be evenly distributed throughout your body.

Mistake 3: Ignoring Water Temperature

The temperature of the water also plays an important role in absorption. Many people prefer drinking cold water, thinking it’s more refreshing, but warm or room-temperature water is absorbed more quickly and can be more beneficial for the digestive system. Choose what feels best for you or alternate between both.

Mistake 4: Only Drinking Water During Meals
Many people only drink water during meals. While staying hydrated is important, drinking large amounts of water during meals can dilute digestive juices, making digestion more difficult. It’s recommended to drink water before or after meals to avoid digestive discomfort.
