If I drink 48oz of water in 1-2 hours, does it have the same positive effect as it would if I spread it out throughout the day?

# I have a hard time making myself drink water, so sometimes I just try to get it all in within a couple hours. But it got me thinking, does it help my body the same way as it would should I drink small amounts throughout the day.

No, it does not.

Your body can only absorb so much water at any one time. The rest will be discarded as urine.

Too much water will flush out the the good things too, leaving you in worse shape.

Its better to space it out so its absorbed fully and doesn’t flush out the good things.

You also get water from some of the things you eat as well.

I hate drinking water too, but the chug method is not beneficial for daily water intake. It is better than nothing though.

The color of your urine will tell you where you are at. Looking for a pale light yellow. Anything darker… get to drinking a glass.
