The best fat burning 'supplement' ever

Save Tip

The substance I am about to present to you can when consumed, almost instantly, accelerate fat loss, promote muscle development & strengthening and prolong aerobic capability.

Think I’m talking about an illegal performance enhancing drug? Think again.

In fact, besides the fact that it is legal, chances are that you are already using it, but not in correct amounts. Still don’t know?

It is WATER!

Now, you may say that: ”You aren’t telling me something new. I knew that I should drink between 8 – 10 glasses a day?” Ok, maybe you knew but tell me do you drink that much water a day? Probably not, I know that I didn’t before I started trying to find ways to reduce my body fat level.

What you should know about water is that:
• Every physiological process in your body depends on water.

• Dehydration decreases endurance, strength and physical performance.

• Without enough water the body can’t “burn” body fat as efficiently as normally.
When dehydrated, the body tries to hold on to as much water as possible. When this happens, the body’s waste products can’t be eliminated and the kidneys become overwhelmed. At this point the liver starts to help remove these waste products, neglecting its own job which includes using stored body fat for energy.

• Water is especially important on moderate to high protein diets. Processing protein produces much metabolic waste that the kidneys can’t remove completely without enough water.

• Drinking lots of water does not make you retain water. In fact the body only retains water when it does not receive enough water.

• Water is the only zero calorie liquid and the only one that properly hydrates you. You should not drink any other liquids for the two reasons above.

The best way to figure out the amount of water you should drink per day is by reporting it to your Total Energy Expenditure – you should drink between 1 ml and 1.5 ml per calorie consumed.

(Water intake in liters) = (total energy expenditure) X (1 or 1.5)

Anyway, do not drop water consumption below the recommended 8 to 10 glasses per day (that’s about 2 liters per day).
