3 Glasses of water before bed!!!!

Thanks for the info about the three glasses..:-0 I never heard it before so I better try it so that my sleep will be better..:-0 Well I guess when you drink water before sleepin,It will make your metabolism more faster that helps digest the food you eat..:-0 hehehe God blesss and have a nice day..:-0

I have not heard that before. You are right,it will make me up all night for I will always keep running on the pat. Maybe you can do drinking of lots of water during daytime.

I try and drink 2 litres a day, and always carry a water bottle with me so I am more inclined to have little sips of water more often and the 2 litres just tends to happen throughout the day. When I do drink lots of water before bed, I tend to wake up during the night for bathroom visits. If you had the water enough time before bed and can go to the bathroom first it might be alright. I always take a glass of water to bed to sip on it if I wake up dehydrated in the night and to drink first thing in the morning.

I don't think it would be a good idea for me to drink all that water before bed. I'd be up all night going potty. Then I'd have to deal with the lack of sleep and all of the problems that can bring. I try to drink my half a gallon a day maybe more but at bedtime it's a small cup of sleepy time tea for me.

I have not heard about this, in fact i have heard the other way round which sounds more logical. We should drink 3-4 glasses of water early in the morning as soon as we wake up before going to the washroom. This helps to flush out the undigested waste matter and cleanse our body.......Have a nice day.

There must be some reason. But three glasses before bed is too much for me. Id say dont wait till you get thirsty. Drink ofter. But dont over do it. It might cause in convenience! I was reading the paper the other day and I read that drinking too much water can cause certain toxins in your body to be released and thats not good. Not sure if its true.

i have not heard this one before. however i just so happen to drink more water at home during the evening then i do all day. let me tell you, it's no fun having to get up and go potty ever hour. but for some reason i just can not drink water all during the day. maybe cause i am so busy drinking coffee

I'm trying not to drink anything at least one hour before bed. I don't want to have to get up in the middle of the night to visit 'the little girl's room'. : ) I drink about 10 glasses of water a day. I know I function better, and I feel good knowing I'm doing at least one thing right for my body. The only reason I personally would drink three glasses of water before bed, would be to make sure I felt full, and didn't get the munchies in the middle of the night.

Is it so? I dont know about this. Thanks for this information. I will try to drink atleast 2 glasses before body.

I keep a bottle of water by my bedside at night so that when I wake up with my mouth full of cat hair I can wash it down, hehehe. But I actually heard the 3 glass bit the other way around. I read that it is a good practice to get into drinking 3 glasses of water before breakfast. Personally, I don't like to follow a bunch of rules in my life... it takes all the spontaneity and fun out of it for me. Plus it makes it harder to listen to the needs of my own body. I am trying to drink more water because my body has let me know that it needs it. And since my thirst mechanism has been ignored for so long it no longer functions as it should and I cannot rely on it right now, I do try to drink those 3 glasses of water before breakfast. But I don't eat breakfast until I've been up for a few hours so that works well for me. That way even if I go the rest of the day and only drink caffeinated tea loaded with cream and sugar, at least I will have got those 3 glasses down!

Funny that you should start this discussion actually because I have been experimenting along the lines of this. I know that I should drink more water, but I am not a water lover, so what I decided to try was to drink a cupful of water before I went to bed each night. I have been doing this for about a week and what I have noticed is that I have less lines on my face, my skin is more flushed and healthier looking and not so pale and dry. I also notice that I go to the toilet regularly, which is always a good thing!! So it is good to drink water before going to bed, although I do agree with you that three cupfuls would be a bit too much in terms of wanting to go all night. But then going to the toilet does flush us out too.

i read somewhere not 3 but at least one glass before going to bed. it is because while we are sleeping we are still releasing liquid in our body...to replace those liquids we release while sleeping so not to dehydrate...

I never heard pf it myself.. I would be running to the bathroom all night too LOL besides water I drink diet green tea.. LOVE IT !!! no cal.. no sugars .. no carbs.. now thats my drink besides water Hugs me

u r right if we take 3 glasses of water while going to bed all night we require to be awake n run to washroom. its better how much ever it is we drink water during day n see to our health n sleep cooly during night.

I have never heard that before. I can't imagine drinking that much water just before bed. I would not get any sleep at all. I would be in the bathroom every hour.

I'm with you. I drink nothing before bed and I'm up at least once during the night. If I drank 3 glasses of water I would get almost no sleep. During the day, OK, but not at bedtime, wouldn't work for me and my pea sized bladder!

I think it is hard to take it before bed that will keep you running all the night as you say, he good way is to drink these 3 glasses in early morning before breakfast and after 30 or 45 minutes you can have your breakfast, I have try this way to control my high blood pressure, and it is work with me. have a great day.

It is quite impossible to have that much water before go to bed. It will be a painful experience all over the night, especially in winter. I don't know if it come from a true scientist. I believe half a glass of water is enough. You can have more when you get up in the morning.

If you drink a glass of water before you have a meal you will not eat so much so it is good if you are on a diet. I drink lots of water and green tea during the day but it would not be good drinking a lot at night.

hello!! Well i drink tea or milk after i eat meal and before bedtime i drink water too.. water is good to our body without this we cant survive in this world..
