- We all love that first morning cup of coffee. But before you flip the switch on the coffee maker tomorrow, there is one critical step your body is begging for: a big glass of water.
Think about it: you’ve just spent several hours sleeping. Your body has been working hard to restore itself, but it hasn't had a single drop of liquid all night. Waking up mildly dehydrated is the #1 reason we feel groggy, sluggish, and slow to move in the morning.
Drinking 12–16 ounces of water right when you get out of bed:
• Fires up your metabolism for the day.
• Wakes up your digestion and flushes out toxins.
• Boosts your brainpower so you feel alert faster.
