A very popular health trend is to drink some water when you first get out of bed in the morning. In fact, researchers have found that this practice actually does have some great health benefits.
Starting your day with a glass of warm water offers many benefits.
It’s been linked to the preventing and treatment of many health problems, such as heart disease, obesity, kidney disease, uterine disease, diabetes, constipation, arthritis, headaches, epilepsy, vomiting, tuberculosis, body aches, and more.
This water therapy was first started by the Japanese to cure different types of illnesses from headaches to cancer. This could be one of the reasons why lots of Japanese live beyond the age of 100 and the fact that they’re thousands of “Centenarians” who are still living a long life at present.
How Do you Get Started?
① When you first wake up, drink 24 ounces of water (if possible, drink water with no fluoride).
If you cannot drink this much at want, start drinking as much as possible when you first wake up. You can increase the water you drink over time as you become used to it.
② Go about your morning routine, such as brushing your teeth, flossing, etc.
Make sure you wait 20-30 minutes before you drink or eat anything else.
③ You can eat your breakfast as you normally do after the 20-30 minutes have gone by.
After breakfast, avoid drinking or eating anything for about two hours.
Treating Specific Diseases
Research shows that using this regimen can help treat diseases.
For example, doing this for 10 days can help you eliminate gastric problems and constipation.
You can reduce high blood pressure in just 30 days, as well as diabetes. This regiment may even help you prevent or treat cancer.
- High blood Pressure- 30 days
- Gastric Problems- 10 days
- Diabetes- 30 days
- Constipation- 10 days
- Cancer-180 days
You won’t deal with any side effects when you use this treatment method. However, you may notice increased urination when you first get started.
Drinking this water in the morning will help you stay active and healthy.
The Japanese and Chinese usually have hot tea with meals. They don’t drink cold water. Cold water can actually solidify oily foods and slow down your digestive system.
You may want to drink hot water or hot tea with your meals like these Eastern cultures do.

Sorry, I guess this comment was not meant to be here? Since we’re talking about “warm” drinking water and its benefits. I believe this is meant for another post about gelatin hair mask.

You can take water at room temperature but you’ll miss out the benefits of drinking warm water.

12/15/2014 at 7:58 amOk so I know ur “suppose” to eat breakfast or whatever but Im not hungry when I wake up and I can not physically make myself eat anything unless I want to get sick.. So if I were to try the “drinking water as soon as my eyes open” I would still have to wait 45min before I could drink my coffee?
Calleigh says
12/15/2014 at 10:53 am@Steph,
It says 45 minutes of waiting, but for me I tried eating my breakfast or drink coffee after only 30 minutes and it works fine for me.

I prefer drinking warm water every morning. And I added drops of lemon juice and 1 tbsp of gelatin (for collagen) as well. I can vouch the result on my skin is amazing.
