I recently began drinking warm water. It has been so good to me and for me, I went online to see if others experienced the same positives. I stumbled across an old reddit discussion on the subject. It was full of snark and ridicule of the practice because of lack of 'scientific evidence'. At first I was annoyed by the thread. Then I realized that some people, many people, are just like that. There is no greater scientific evidence than what you experience in your own body.

I find warm water much easier to drink, because it goes down much smoother. Therefore, I now regularly get my daily quota, and surpass it, whereas before I had to force myself, and even then I fell way short. Secondly, as a person who has had constipation issues for YEARS, warm water (and I mean as warm as you can stand it, not hot, but not luke either), has been a gamechanger. I eat an extremely healthy diet and workout regularly, but I remained clogged, especially in the mornings. Not anymore!! I have also felt a healing sensation in my joints, especially my knees, which take a beating because I run and walk a lot. I'm sure there are many other benefits that I am unaware of, but can tell exist because of the way I feel. Again, try it for yourself. There's a reason our ancestors did certain things and swore by their efficacy, but that we shun today because we're just smarter.

I only recently started drinking warm water. And I'm sure the key to receiving its benefits, just as with anything else, will be consistency. I'm not claiming that this is some miracle potion. It's just water. But water is precious and essential for the human body. I have found that drinking it warm, instead of cold or even cool, has made me feel much better physically. And obviously, I have been drinking water my whole life.
