The "Magic Pill" for Weight Loss
by Doberman Dan, author of "Hyper

I'm asked every day if there. s a "magic" pill out there...
something that'll help shed that excess fat tissue and keep it off for
good. What if I told you that there is something that. s inexpensive, readily
available, safe, without side effects, and just may be the most effective
fat loss substance anywhere?
What is this mystery substance? This magic pill that
you've been waiting for? Well, it isn't a pill at all. It's good old water.
That's right, pure H2O.
Water is without a doubt one of the most underrated and
yet dramatically effective keys to weight loss and, in particular, body
fat reduction. There's absolutely no denying that drinking a lot of pure,
clean water (8-12 glasses per day) will help you get and stay LEAN.
Let me make it perfectly clear here that we. re talking
about plain water... not soda (which is loaded with sugar; even diet soda
is full of salt and chemical sweeteners), not coffee, tea, juice, blah,
blah, blah. None of these count. Just WATER.
Why is water such an effective fat loss aide? There. s
several important factors:
Water seems to act as a natural appetite suppressant.
In fact, people on diets who do not increase their water intake will find
themselves feeling "hungry" much more often and more severely than those
who increase their water consumption. One possible reason for this is that
dieters are getting less water from their food, because they. re eating
less food, so the body is actually craving fluid. These cravings can be
significantly curbed with increased water intake.
Consuming enough water allows the kidneys to function
optimally. This in turn enables the liver to become more efficient at metabolizing
fat. The result is an increased fat burning capacity in the liver.
When the body doesn't get sufficient amounts of water,
it'll metabolically shift in a defensive and protective strategy to "preserve"
what it has. This can only result in a negative slowdown of bodily functions
and processes. Incidentally, something similar happens when you cut fat
completely out of your diet: the body compensates by holding on to as much
of its fat stores as possible, thus defeating the purpose. This is why
I recommend a nutrition program rich in "good" fats which promote metabolism.
In addition to fat loss, drinking adequate amounts of
water also has numerous other biological and physical benefits. Maintaining
healthy and vibrant appearing skin is an example of one such added benefit.
Bottom Line: drinking sufficient amounts of pure water
should be the first step in any serious fat reduction program.
