Does hot water reduce tummy?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Warm water helps to curb appetite. Gulping down a glass of warm water 30 minutes before having your meal can help to manage your calories intake.

Drinking hot water alone does not directly reduce tummy fat. However, it can support overall hydration and digestion, which are important for maintaining a healthy metabolism.
Key points to consider:
-
Hydration: Drinking enough water, whether hot or cold, helps your body function well and can aid in weight management.
-
Metabolism: Warm water might temporarily increase your body temperature, but this effect is minimal and not enough to cause significant fat loss.
-
Healthy lifestyle: Reducing tummy fat effectively involves a combination of balanced diet, regular physical activity, and good sleep.
In summary, while hot water is good for hydration and digestion, it should be part of a broader healthy lifestyle to help reduce tummy fat effectively.

View allI'm really worried because about 10 days ago, I drank some ORS powder mixed in water using a copper water bottle, and ever since then, I've been having a lot of stomach issues. It started with loose motion the same day, and now I'm dealing with an upset stomach, gas, cramps, and even vomiting almost every other day. How long do you think it will take before I start feeling better?

You may be experiencing symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). To help manage your symptoms, you can try taking over-the-counter medication such as Imodium (loperamide) to help with diarrhea and Dicyclomine (Bentyl) to help with abdominal cramping. It is important to stay hydrated and maintain a healthy diet with plenty of fiber. If your symptoms persist, it is recommended to consult with a gastroenterologist for further evaluation and management.
