Does drinking 3 liters of water everyday help you achieve clear skin?

Clear skin comes from having correct beauty knowledge.

Nowadays, beauty tips regarding water are increasing.

Perhaps you’ve heard a supermodel answer the question, “What do you do for your looks?” with “I drink a lot of water, at least 3 liters a day.”

But is 3 liters of water everyday actually effective?

Conclusion

The suggested amount of water needed is 1.2 liters a day. Your skin does not get more beautiful just by drinking more and more water.

Why this conclusion?

60% of the human body is made out of water (If you weigh 55kg, 22kg is water!).

If you lose 5% of that, you’ll experience dehydration and heatstroke. Lose 20% and you’re dead.

Water is super important not only for beauty, but for your health as well.

This might may you think, “Shouldn’t you drink more water then?”

However, we consume water not only from drinking water directly, but also from eating and metabolic reactions that change food into energy.

A full grown man weighing 60kg will release 2.5 liters of water everyday. 1 liter of water will be from food and 0.3 liters from metabolic reactions, so you need to drink the rest, which is 1.2 liters.

The key point is to realize that the human body tries to balance the amount of water, which means that drinking too much water will only result in more water being released.

Therefore, it’s not likely that the amount of water you drink will affect your skin. Unless you exercised and lost body water to sweat, 3 liters of water doesn’t seem necessary.

What’s important is to drink the necessary amount of water (1.2 liters) and prevent dehydration.

That being said, you need to drink pure water.

Drinks with sugar and salt take time for the body to absorb. Drinks with alcohol and caffeine also encourage the body to discharge water. These are not for hydrating.

Please be sure to drink water ONLY.

3 effective ways to hydrate

1. Thirst is a sign that the body is already starting to dehydrate. Be sure to drink water before you feel thirsty, not after.
2. Drink water before, during, and after sports, sleeping, taking a bath, and drinking alcohol.
3. Most people aren’t hydrated enough. Drink more than you usually would, around 2 cups of water.

Correct hydration will help you overcome dehydration and a healthier body.
