There is a lot of controversy surrounding the question of how many glasses of water a day those trying to lose weight should drink.
Even experts do not have a clear answer to this question, because each person requires an individual approach.
It is adjusted taking into account gender, age, height, weight, and health status.
The average value is 30-35 ml of water per 1 kg of body weight. If a person weighs, for example, 90 kg, then we are talking about about 14 glasses, the volume of which is 220 ml.
In hot weather, the amount can be increased to 40 ml per 1 kg. And when doing fitness, about 50-60 ml per 1 kg is needed.
But this does not mean that only water should be used. Juice, tea, coffee and first courses are also taken into account.
Lack of fluid aggravates such a problem as cellulite. In addition, when losing weight, it is often recommended to include more protein foods in the diet.
Against this background, a lack of water can be the cause of constipation, nutritionists warn.
In addition, in the process of destruction of fatty tissue, the amount of toxins that must be actively removed from the body increases.
Therefore, those losing weight need to drink approximately 30-50% more water than in normal cases.
