Can One Glass in the Morning Change Things? The Right Way for Men in their 40s and 50s to Drink Water
Many people probably start their mornings with coffee.
However, as people reach their 40s and 50s, they increasingly feel "not refreshed in the morning" or "a general heaviness in their body."
Amidst these changes, "morning water habits" have been gaining attention recently. Although it's a simple action, more and more people are incorporating it as a way to regulate their daily condition.

Why drink water in the morning?
It is said that people sweat during sleep, leading to a loss of body fluids.
Therefore, the body is considered to be in a state of mild dehydration upon waking. Drinking water then leads to a habit that sets a good start to the day.
Especially in Thailand, where air conditioning is common, water can be lost without realizing it, making morning hydration even more important.
Key points for proper drinking
It is important to hydrate in the morning in a way that can be easily maintained.
・Start with one glass (about 150-200ml)
・Choose room temperature water
・Drink slowly, not all at once
While cold water can be refreshing, many people find room temperature water easier to drink in the morning, making it easier to turn into a habit.
Tips for making it a habit
No matter how good a habit is, it's meaningless if it can't be continued.
To maintain a morning water habit, it's important to integrate it naturally into your daily life.
・Drink immediately upon waking
・Keep water by your bedside
・Drink before brushing your teeth
Establishing such rules makes it easier to continue without strain.
The "drinkability" of water determines consistency
"Drinkability" is a major factor for continuing daily.
Water comes in hard and soft varieties, each with different tastes and mouthfeels.
・Soft water: Mellow with little distinct taste
・Hard water: Mineral-rich with a distinct taste
Many people tend to find soft water easier to incorporate into their daily drinking habits.
