When you drink cold water, your blood vessels shrink, and this restricts your digestion. Warm water helps break down food, aids constipation, and even helps you lose weight while improving your blood circulation.

You probably already know how important it is to drink enough water every day. It has been estimated that our body is 65% water. When we lose more liquids then we ingest, we get dehydrated, and experience headaches, dry skin, dizziness, and fatigue. In the more severe cases, dehydration could lead to a loss of consciousness and fainting spells.
