Submitted by Dr. Sir Zenon Gruba: Water Before Bedtime
[Zenon’s note: I don’t know if this works – but it’s worth a try!]

About 90% of heart attacks occur early in the morning and it can be minimized if one takes a glass or two of water – NOT grog or beer – before retiring in the evening.

I knew water is important but I never knew about the special times to drink it. Did you??

Drinking water at the correct time maximizes its effectiveness on the Human body :

1 glass of water after waking up – helps activate internal organs
1 glass of water 30 minutes before a meal – helps digestion
1 glass of water before taking a bath – helps lower blood pressure
1 glass of water before going to bed – avoids stroke or heart attack
