I woke up exactly at 6am this morning, and right after my active stretches I drank 2 full glasses of water. It felt really good and my mind felt a lot clearer. I have experimented with coffee, tea, and water.
Based on my experiences I would say that water is the best drink to have in the morning. First it helps speed my metabolism because it's a zero calorie nutrient, therefore the body is going to spend more energy to process it, thus burn calories at the same time. As for coffee, when I tried it a few time, it only increased my insulin level, changed my mood, and by the time I had breakfast I felt like my body was collapsing. Plus it accumulates more fat tissues from the sugar content.
As for tea, I found it's better than coffee when I consume it in the morning, I don't get the mood swing, and I feel like my adrenal glands keeps everything in check. The only problem I have with drinking them in the morning is the after taste, other than that, it's fine. However, for some reason, I have made it a habit to drink water in the morning instead because physiologically it's better for the body and a lot healthier. Also, since the body is comprised of about 75% of water and we lose a lot of it through sweat, urine, perspiration, I found it's better to stick with drinking more of it for replenishing as well.
Well, I share this with you because someone sent me an e-mail asking what's the best drink I value the most in the morning and why? Hope this quick answer help you as well. I forgot to mentioned earlier, I alternate between tea and water once in a while. There's also a post about the importance of water in September and December archive if you want to check it out.
