Studies have shown that, when dieting, weight loss is greater if water consumption is higher. However, this relationship has not been demonstrated outside the context of a diet. Some waters, known as "slimming waters", are rich in Magnesium, which facilitates intestinal transit and may be associated with a slimming effect, but no study has been able to prove this effect. In any case, water accounts for 60% of our body weight and is constantly being eliminated (through urine, perspiration, etc.), so it's important to drink plenty, even before you feel thirsty.
