Water is essential for the normal functioning of internal organs and body cells.

Vova Romanchenko, a blogger, also drew attention to this. In his video he decided to correct this omission and drink 2 liters of water daily for a month. What did this experiment lead to?

A glass of water in the morning keeps you from oversleeping

One of the most important discoveries for the blogger was the fact that after drinking a glass of water in the morning it becomes many times more difficult to fall asleep. This is due to both the abundance of activities after waking up and the refreshing effect of the water itself.

Drinking water can also be difficult

The author of the video notes that from unaccustomed to such volumes of liquid can cause discomfort in the body. It will not be easy to force yourself to drink another glass of water, and sometimes you may even feel nauseous. But during the first week, the body will adapt and start to demand more fluids. In addition, water in such large volumes simply displaces any other drinks like sweet sodas, cocktails, etc. from the diet.

Drinking a lot of water is useful, but no more

Having conducted an experiment, the young man concludes that drinking so much water a day is certainly useful. But there is no dire need for it for a human being. He didn’t notice any shocking changes in the condition of his skin or hair. His general health has indeed become better, and Vova plans to keep the habit of drinking a lot of water in a day. However, this is only his desire, not some kind of necessity.

Children under six months old are not recommended to drink water at all because it may contain infections and viruses. This can adversely affect the child’s health. Replenish the lack of fluid can be with milk, preferably breast milk – it is 80% of water.

Drinking water by force, of course, in no case should not be, as it can lead to swelling of brain tissue, confusion, seizures.
