According to the wonderful Indian holistic health Science – Ayurveda, one of the easiest ways to heal your body and keep your body healthy is to warm up the water before you drink it!

Drinking warm water, especially in the morning, helps improve and maintain the metabolism of our body. Metabolism is the biochemical process of burning calories consumed by our body and producing the energy to each and every organ of our body. Our resting metabolism rate (RMR) is responsible for 75% of the calories burnt every day. Studies show drinking warm water enhances Metabolism rate, activates enzymes in our stomach, smoothens digestion and burn fat easily.
2. Detoxifies the body and Enhances Body Immunity
Consumption of Warm water throughout the day helps in flushing out the toxins and irritants from the body. The heat from the water raises body temperature which activates sweat glands and releases superficial toxins.
