Drinking a glass of water in the morning is a good habit recognized by doctors, which plays a role in increasing blood volume and reducing blood viscosity.
Especially for the elderly, even if they don't feel thirsty after waking up in the morning, drinking a glass of water is good for intestinal and vascular health.
However, this glass of water also hides a university question, drinking it right is good for health, and drinking it wrong will become a burden on the body.
Don't choose these 6 types of water for the first glass of water in the morning
Ice water
From the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, the body's yang energy begins to grow in the morning, like a small flame, and the yang energy will be vigorous at noon.
Therefore, the yang energy in the morning needs to be cared for, but if a glass of ice water is in the stomach, the yang energy is easily damaged, and over time it will lead to the lack of yang energy and internal cold, which will cause diseases.
Overnight tea
Tea is a healthy drink, but it is best to drink tea slowly in small sips, and it is to drink it immediately, and drinking warm tea is conducive to the digestion and absorption of the gastrointestinal tract.
If you get up early and drink tea in large gulps, not only can you not replenish water, but also cause volume depletion due to the diuretic effect of tea, which will affect blood circulation, which will damage your health.
drink
Whether it is fruit juice, cola, soft drink, coffee and other beverages, as the first glass of water in the morning, it is not conducive to gastrointestinal digestion and absorption.
Moreover, most carbonated drinks contain citric acid, which will accelerate the excretion of calcium in metabolism and reduce the content of calcium in the blood, which will lead to calcium deficiency after long-term drinking.
Milk
After waking up in the morning, the gastrointestinal function is still dormant, and drinking milk at this time, the body cannot fully absorb the nutrients in the milk.
In addition, many people get up early to drink milk on an empty stomach and experience symptoms such as abdominal pain and diarrhea.
Light salt water
Although in ancient times, traditional Chinese medicine once proposed the way of "drinking salt water in the morning" to nourish the kidneys and strengthen the spleen.
However, long-term consumption of light salt water can easily lead to excessive salt intake, which will continue to increase our cardiovascular burden.
Compared with drinking salt water in the morning, choosing to eat some salty food for breakfast is more in line with the health regimen of "morning salt water".
Honey water
Honey stimulates bowel movements and helps to have a smooth bowel movement.
However, for people who are not troubled by constipation, drinking honey water in the morning is easy to induce diarrhea.
Honey water is also not suitable for diabetics, obese people and people with high uric acid.
Drink some plain water in the morning
temperature
The temperature of the first glass of water in the morning should not be too hot or too cold, and it should be roughly the same as the body temperature.
Water

For healthy people, 100~300 ml is acceptable, drink more if you are thirsty, and drink less if you are not thirsty.
occasion
The time to drink water in the morning should be after washing.
Prevents bacteria from the mouth from rushing into the digestive tract and poses a certain threat to health.
velocity
It is best to drink the first glass of water in the morning in small sips, so that it feels comfortable and does not swell after drinking, and the water will not rattle in the stomach when running and jumping.
