A member asked:

How does drinking water assist in weight loss?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

By filling stomach: Which produces a feeling of being full & so one can reduce further intake of food. Drinking a glassful with a salad before the main course, and with discipline to not overeat, would result in weight reduction. Regular exercises greatly helps also. Keep doing regular checkups with your gp.
