Did You Know? Drinking Water Helps Maintain a Healthy Weight! Hanukkah Challenge

How much water do you drink?

As it gets colder outside, we automatically cut back on how much water we drink, because the cold naturally reduces the craving for water...

I recommend paying attention to how much we drink during the day. If you carry a bottle around, notice how many times you refilled it during the day. The recommendation is about 2 liters per day on average, so it is worth refilling the bottle 3-4 times a day depending on the bottle's size.

If drinking water in winter is difficult, you can replace some of the water with tea (caffeine free). Prepare a teapot or thermos with leaves such as mint, lemon verbena, lemongrass, or sage. You can add a cinnamon stick (which adds natural sweetness), pieces of ginger, or whatever you like in your tea. Of course, it is best to avoid adding sugar or honey.
