Yes, You Can Drink Water While Eating
A health myth claims that you shouldn’t drink water while eating because it disrupts digestive enzymes. But this isn’t true. Drinking water during and before meals has many health benefits. It can help you feel fuller, according to a study in Clinical Nutrition Research.
During a 2003 study, researchers found that drinking water while eating can boost your metabolism. It helps the body break down calories, which can help people who aim to lose weight. If you feel uncomfortable drinking while eating, have a glass of water ten minutes before your meal.
