Drink Water First Thing in the Morning! Here’s 10 Amazing Benefits You Get.

Some people believe that drinking water in the morning can aid in weight loss.
For example, a 2019 studyTrusted Source
 found that higher fluid intake had links with improved body composition in young adults.An older study from 2010Trusted Source
 found that middle-aged and older adults lost more weight when they drank 500 milliliters (ml) of water before each meal over 12 weeks.
Researchers partly attributed this weight loss to the decrease in energy intake from meals among the participants who drank water. This means they ate less food than individuals who did not partake in water before meals.An older study from 2013Trusted Source
 involved the water intake of 50 girls, with a body mass index of 25 to 29.9, along with a nutritious diet. It found that their body weight had decreased after they increased their water intake to 500 ml, three times a day, for 8 weeks. Participants drank the water before breakfast, lunch, and dinner.
Researchers attributed the weight loss to water-induced thermogenesis.
However, these studies cannot definitively claim that only the water intake led to the weight loss.
Additionally, the results do not necessarily mean that drinking water specifically in the morning offers weight loss effects.Water can have an impact on cognition and mental performance — even minor dehydration can have adverse effects on cognition, according to a 2016 study.Trusted Source
2019 reviewTrusted Source
 looked at the effect of hydration on cognitive performance. It found that there was a trend of improved mental performance in hydrated study participants. However, the researchers noted that the results were not statistically significant.
Additionally, participants in the study drank water throughout the day. This may suggest that hydration throughout the day may be necessary for better mental performance rather than just drinking water in the morning.Additionally, participants in the study drank water throughout the day.

Another 2019 studyTrusted Source
 on male college students found that dehydration had negative effects on short-term memory and attention. Short-term memory and attention improved once the participants rehydrated again.
Therefore, if a person wishes to increase their mental performance, specifically in the morning, drinking water may help.
