I just want to mention - I really like Becky and can listen to what she has to say all day long. But Keith adds something that is extremely helpful which has to do with how he explains things, or the examples he gives. Becky is wonderful; but both of you together, are powerful. Stay with us Keith - you are needed. And I think this mission is just beginning.
I’ve been drinking cold water first thing for years because I’m always thirsty when I first wake up. I always felt that it was the cold that was jump starting my wakening. Never considered that there was an actual metabolic effect, but it makes perfect sense from an equilibrium perspective. I’m a scientist (retired) and I find this sort of information fascinating. Thanks for the continued excellent content.
Love watching how Dr Becky looks at acknowledges what Dr Keith has to say - love ❤personified - I’ve been drinking 500-750ml tap water upon waking before my morning coffee - I’m down 24 kilos in 2 years no strict dieting other than TRE 12-16 hours per day and limited processed carbs sugar
I also have hypothyroidism, my dr told me to take my thyroid medication first thing every morning with 2 cups of plain room temperature water, 20 minutes later I can drink coffee or eat. I have done this for 30 years.
@@kimmollenkopf718that’s interesting .. I was told to take it in an empty stomach last thing at night as the body does its regeneration while you are sleeping 🤷♀️ so now don’t know what to believe 😕
Do not drink tap water with thyroid issues. The chlorine & fluoride cause the thyroid issues & problems. Always drink filtered water & your energy will be great all day (this is in regards to having Hashimotos)
Cold showers are great if you live in an area with hot weather. The problem is when it's not hot cold showers are uncomfortable. When I spent time in Florida I always had cold showers because it felt good after being out in the heat all day.
My doctor didn't tell me how to take my thyroid pill, except "before breakfast ". But I would drink 32 oz of water and eat a meal with some supplements including minerals right afterwards. I was probably flushing out with water or chelating it with the minerals. I did my own research because the pill wasn't working. So now I take it on an empty stomach and wait 2 hours. I I do it at 5am, I can now strategize to take the 2 cups of water by 7am. 😊👍
I drink lots of room temp water filtered through a berkey with fluoride filters. I wouldn’t drink directly from the tap anymore. My city water is full of fluoride and chlorine.
There has been new controversy on the concerns of fluoride as a neurotoxin with adverse cognitive and endocrine outcomes. More research and studies need to be done. We have fluoride in water , toothpaste, mouthwash and also treatments on children’s teeth. Somewhat over done!
@@gloriasaliba3395look into the research about floride 😮 also you can use fluoride toothpaste if you want . I don’t want it on my teeth and certainly don’t want to injest it . Berkey filters are great
Nice to know! I drink at least 8 ounces of tap water first thing in the morning just to rehydrate from the overnight. Additional benefits! Yes! Thank you!
Dr Becky- I wasn’t aware of your other UA-cam channel “ 2 Fit Docs” where your hubby talked about his illness a few years back. He’s looking great ! Praise God & God bless and keep you both❤
Hooray! Love the two of you together. I understand Dr. Keith not wanting to mess up his metabolism with any more "experiments" but it's fun to have him with you discussing a subject. This was very interesting! I'm going to try it.
What pharmaceutical company is going to underwrite a study of the efficacy of drinking 500ml of H20 with their research $$$? What’s in it for them? Be THANKFUL that some nerds did it at all! We are the recipients of the FREE hack! : )
Hey Keith! Great seeing you again. Looking fantastic. Love the video and I will start this stategy tomorrow. FYI, my husband is now going through something very similar to the challenge you had a couple of years ago. You are inspiring and I am praying he has great results like you seem to have. All the best to you both. Keep up the great work.
I’ve been doing this for one week. I’ve noticed I. Am getting hungrier before meals. I think this is a great indicator that the 500 ml water drinking is working. The trick is not to eat sooner than normal- I’ll update in a full month. Been doing this every morning. I find it helps my hydration, and reduces what I need to drink later in the day. Which of course helps my bladder be empty before going to bed. I only need to get up once, not twice. I’ll keep doing this until…..😊
I appreciate this information. You both are great at delivering valuable information. I started the morning water protocol. Maybe I missed something, how long should one wait after that 500ml of water to take supplements? I have read everything from seconds to 20 minutes. I usually take Tracminerals Megamag 400 1 dropper full, 188 mg potassium, Acetyl L Carnitine, Alpha Lipoic Acid and 5 drops of Traceminerals Iodine solution first thing in the morning. Before going to the gym for a workout I take 5mg creating and another 5mg after my workout. I did a cool shower once so fart will be doing it more. Thanks again for a super fantastic video.
This is so refreshing. I have been inadvertently doing this for the past year due to my distaste of water but knowing that adequate water intake is vital, especially if your follow IF or Keto. I follow up with a coffee too! 😂
What does this actually mean for weight loss? 25% increased metabolic rate for 60 minutes. This says to me I am picking up an extra 15 minutes of metabolism. So I am burning 24.25 hours of calories in 24 hours. Or am I missing something?
16 test subjects doesn't seem like a decent study tbh. I do wonder, how long did the boost last. How would it compare to a caffeine boost from 2 cups of tea or coffee?
Wonder if you drank the 2 cups of water, wait a couple hours and drink another 2 cups….would you get the boost the second time 🤔 Could you keep it up, every couple hours until time to eat/take supplement? 🤔
Thanks for another great video! Question, is it okay to also take my blood pressure pills with the morning water routine? Do I need to wait to take them later? Thank you!
❤love this but I have a question😮!!? How soon after the 2 cups of water should I take my thyroid tablet - which is supposed to be 20/30 mins before breakfast or coffee right?? Thanks - love the fact you often support your info with Data.
distilled water would even have a greater tonicity imbalance. I'm guessing the energy expenditure is due to the use of active transport of electrolytes going against the electrochemical gradient not simply osmotic diffusion. If we simply drank the same amount of water over the day instead of in 5 min active transport would not be used as extensively.
Thank you so much for expanding on the osmolarity benefits of water/metabolism. Reverse effect of then when you GE sends you for that endoscopy exam and you have to drink that disgusting hypersaline solution. Maybe that's one reason (besides low carb'ing) that I keep the weight off, cause I drink well over 300ml of water as soon as I'm out of bed, especially if I'm going for a morning bed-to-runners run routine. I guess taking that AC Viniger should wait? Water is my 1º beverage, actually. Always 4L of it in the fridge.
Thanks for this! Interesting and helpful! I'm always drinking water, especially first thing in the morning. I usually have a few grains sea salt under tongue as well. Would that interfer? Thanks!
Have missed the TWO FIT DOCS. Keith is looking GOOD...hope he's also feeling well!
So 500 mil water very First thing in morning .. will try before my coffee ❤
I’ll do the same. Please don’t take away my coffee 😮
Great advice: So drink 2 cups plain water in the morning and finish within 5 minutes.
Wow! I saw Keith and clicked so fast.
So good to see you Dr. Keith.
SAME!

As a person with hypothyroid it’s great to hear that plain, simple water will boost my metabolism. Thank you for sharing this!

@@kimmollenkopf718and what are the results or benefits you've noticed, if any, and how do you know if it would be different if you hadn't done it?

Hey Hypothyroid ladies, have you learned about the bebefits of Iodine supplementing for that?
I like this suggestion to boost metabolism WAY more than I like the cold shower thing......😁
LOL. I agree, Juliann :)
Agreed🥶🥶🥶
😂❄️
Cold showers are great if you live in an area with hot weather. The problem is when it's not hot cold showers are uncomfortable. When I spent time in Florida I always had cold showers because it felt good after being out in the heat all day.
I started doing the cold shower twice a day. I'm totally used to it now! I'm going to get a barrel so I can dunk for 3 minutes! Love it!
I was hoping 2 cups of coffee was the secret lol. Btw, Keith looking better than ever!
Thanks I will start drinking water now 🌸

Fluoride is of great benefit to your teeth

This is such great info, it's also something Dr. Jason Fung has long promoted, 2 cups of water early in am.
The doctors are in! Love seeing you two together! This is very interesting, easy and doable! Thank you for this! Take care!
Great to see Dr. Keith again! Hope both of you are being Blessed!
The dynamic duo!!! Great video!!! Can’t wait to try!!!!!
Welcome back Keith! Looking Good!

This is great news, i can't imagine getting this metabolic boast in the morning, by just drinking two glasses of water so simple and effective.
Who wouldn’t want Dr Becky as their GP? Such good clear and informative videos and a wa4m smile! Thanks Dr!👍💯
But she's not a GP, sooo no
Can't wait to try this tomorrow morning!! Thank you, beautiful couple! XO ❤
not only good metabolic news, but good to see Keith! as well as you Becky.
Thanks - Loved the conversational type teaching. It made it easier to swallow - ha ha
😂
So glad to see Dr. Keith looking so well. Thank you both for your excellent advice. 🌻
Thank you both. Delighted to see Dr. Keith.
I pulled the paper. The study is small. It would be great if there was a larger sample size. It is worth doing anyway. Everyone needs H20.
Website?
What pharmaceutical company is going to underwrite a study of the efficacy of drinking 500ml of H20 with their research $$$? What’s in it for them? Be THANKFUL that some nerds did it at all! We are the recipients of the FREE hack! : )

It’s good to see you both again. Thanks for the tip. Hi from a carnivore woman in Australia! 🇦🇺
Great to see Dr. Keith again. Looking good my man!
So wonderful to see you and Keith doing a video together! 🎉🎉
Blessings to you both!!❤❤❤
Love your table chats!! Good to see you, Dr Keith!
So enjoy both of you. Thanks for helping keep us well!!!
Thank you very much for the video. Can you eat after you drink 16 ounces of water or do you need to wait?
500 ml/2c Plain water within 5 minutes first thing 😊 then coffee next
Missed Keith and Two Fit Doctors ❤
So good to see you both together, yay!😊
So glad to see you both again! I had heard it was a good idea, but now I will definitely try it!! Thank you!!
Wonderful to see Keith!
Yea! Dr. Keith is back. You look great!

Interesting! I wonder how long the metabolism boost lasts. Thanks for the info.
Awesome information. Thanks for a great discussion on this research.

Hard to go out a walk a couple of miles after drinking all that water, there are no bathrooms on the trail.
Useful info, as usual. Good to see you, Dr. Keith!
Haven't seen ya'll in forever. So glad to see this video!

How long should I wait before having breakfast, after drinking the 500ml water, please?
I have the same question?
Tomorrow will begin my new routine! Thanks so much!
Thank you! It was good to see Dr. Keith-looks like he’s doing well!.
You both do such a great job of explaining the science behind the studies in a way that’s understandable to people like me!😅 I love listening to you.
Okay I thought it was to good to be true but I tried it -no don't trust tap water here but I used plain water and I feel amazing
This is so refreshing. I have been inadvertently doing this for the past year due to my distaste of water but knowing that adequate water intake is vital, especially if your follow IF or Keto. I follow up with a coffee too! 😂
Thank you! Can you eat breakfast afterwards or do you also have to wait one hour?
Good to see you guys are doing well ❤
Concise and to the point! Excellent video!
Yay. Dr. Keith!
Can u drink coffee with CREAM right after the water?????
Thank you for this latest information. Keep well!
Dr. Keith looks great 😊

Do we not need a pinch of Celtic salt under the tongue to provide the minerals necessary to enable the cells to absorb the water?
We miss you, Keith!
Good to see you again! Blessings ❤
16 test subjects doesn't seem like a decent study tbh. I do wonder, how long did the boost last. How would it compare to a caffeine boost from 2 cups of tea or coffee?
Did you read the study?🤔
We love you two back! We love this and cold water in shower! 2 simple things!!!
Hi, Keith!! Loved this.
Wonder if you drank the 2 cups of water, wait a couple hours and drink another 2 cups….would you get the boost the second time 🤔
Could you keep it up, every couple hours until time to eat/take supplement? 🤔
This idea was not explored. Would it work? It's interesting to consider.
Another great video! So good to see both of you again! :)
Does it matter if there is heavy whipping cream in the coffee or should it be black coffee?
Hello Dr Becky! Great to see you again Dr Keith! Miss 2FitDocs. Love from Canada 😀
Excellent simple idea❤
Not everyone has filtered tap water. Can it be Brita water or spring water?
Great info as always 😊

Hmmm, I wonder if a TBSP of ACV in the water would impact the imbalance?
Thats good news and cant hurt to have a couple of glasses in the morning😊
That’s worth trying. Good for you any way you look at it.
I have a quick question what does 50/25/25 stand for in your diet?
Thanks for this! Interesting and helpful! I'm always drinking water, especially first thing in the morning. I usually have a few grains sea salt under tongue as well. Would that interfer? Thanks!
You don't want to include salt with the early morning water.
So, if it's due to osmosis, why not drink distilled/RO water?
