As difficult as it is to get out of the quilt early in the morning in cold weather, it is equally important to start the day right. Even today, in rural areas of the country including Rajasthan, a large number of people follow the tradition of drinking hot water on an empty stomach as soon as they wake up in the morning. This habit is not limited only to the elderly, but now the youth have also started adopting it.

Drinking a glass of hot water every morning during the winter season is no less than a boon for health. Is it really effective in removing problems like constipation and acidity? Let us know in detail.

According to health experts, the body’s digestion process becomes relatively slow in winter. Intestinal activity decreases due to cold, which can increase the problems of constipation, gas and acidity. In such a situation, lukewarm water on an empty stomach in the morning helps in awakening the digestive system.

Dr. Ashish Sharma, senior doctor of Karauli, says that drinking hot water as soon as you wake up in the morning starts the movement in the intestines. This makes the process of bowel movement easier and gradually improves long-standing constipation. Warm water loosens the waste materials stuck in the stomach, making them easier to pass out.

Warm water also helps in balancing stomach acid. This habit can be very beneficial for those who complain of heartburn or sour belching as soon as they wake up in the morning.

According to experts, it is better to start with 1 glass on an empty stomach in the morning, if needed, you can take up to 2 glasses. The water should not be too hot, but just enough to drink comfortably. Excessively hot water can damage the inner lining of the throat and stomach.
