Room temperature water hydrates you faster than ice-cold water—sounds surprising, right?
When you drink cold water, your body has to work harder to bring it up to its own temperature before it can be absorbed and used efficiently. This extra work means a slower hydration process. In contrast, room temperature water is closer to the body's natural state, allowing for quicker absorption and faster hydration.
This simple switch can make a big difference, especially during workouts or hot days when your body craves hydration the most. Plus, it eases digestion and prevents the body's energy from diverting to regulate the water's temperature. So next time you're thirsty, consider reaching for a glass of water at room temp to quench your thirst more effectively.
