Boost your energy with premeal sips
Good news for folks who regularly drink H2O to stay hydrated and keep tiredness at bay: Scientists found making a simple timing tweak to your sips can send your energy soaring. Turns out drinking a glass of water 30 minutes before meals and snacks (instead of with food) helps you absorb it twice as quickly, boosting your energy by up to 60%. That’s the word from British researchers, who say water passes rapidly into the small intestine and is more effectively absorbed if there’s no food in your stomach.
