If you want to refresh yourself in the hot summer or after a meal, many people will choose to soak in water without sugar. However, people often wonder on the Internet: "Is soaked water really good for the body?", "Will drinking too much be risky?" In this regard, Japanese hepatic and gastric doctor Yukino said that soaking water can actually help digestion, bring pleasure, and even help control food, but it is not suitable for everyone. A lot of drinking may also cause stomach discomfort.

The benefits of soaking water: Aiding digestion and promoting peristalsis in the kidneys

Ishikazuo pointed out that the most obvious effect of soaking water is "refreshness". The stimulation of the bubbles can clear the mouth and throat, help change the mood, and even improve concentration. In terms of the stomach, blisters can make the stomach slightly swell, stimulate peristalsis, and help improve constipation. At the same time, they will also send a message to the brain that "eating is aroused", which is a helping for people with poor appetite.

In contrast, if you drink before the meal, you can bring a feeling of foot food in advance and help control your appetite. In addition, stimulation of bubbles can promote gastric acid secretion and make food easier to digest. Especially after a big meal or a high-greasy diet, drinking a small amount of soaked water can reduce the feeling of swelling and make the kidney and stomach more stable.

What happens if you drink too much? Common side effects include gastric gas

Although the amount of sugar-free water soaked in water is zero, it is safe to drink appropriately, but if you drink too much, it may lead to increased gas dysfunction and hiccups in the stomach, and even gas accumulation in the kidney tract, causing abdominal distension or abdominal discomfort. Especially for people with allergic kidney syndrome (IBS), blisters may irritate the kidneys, causing abdominal discomfort or discomfort. On the other hand, irritation of air bubbles can increase gastric acid secretion, which may cause stomach pain, acid reflux or burning chest sensation. People with gastroesophageal reflux (GERD) or chronic gastritis should be careful.

In addition, patients with chronic gastritis, digestive atrophy, or young people with sensitive stomachs are also prone to abdominal distension or stomach pain due to carbon dioxide stimulation. It is recommended to avoid excessive doses. Especially drinking carbonated water before going to bed may be more unsuitable.

The effect of weight loss is limited, but it can help control diet indirectly

Doctor Ishioka said that soaking water itself does not burn fat or speed up the weight, but can "indirectly support weight loss." On the one hand, carbonic acid can gently swell the large stomach and help suppress appetite; on the other hand, sugar-free soaked water replaces high-candy juice or alcoholic beverages, which can reduce the total heat intake. However, if you drink a lot in order to pursue a feeling of foot, it may cause stomach upset and incompatibility. Therefore, the most important thing is to "appropriate" and match it with balanced diet and exercise.

Suggested safe drinks

Suggested water intake is about 500 ml to 1 liter per day, and it is best to choose room temperature. People who are sensitive to the kidneys and stomach will be more at ease to avoid being too cold soaked in water. When necessary, you can also alternately choose white water to avoid stomach burden.
