Removing toxins by drinking hot water not only purifies the body but also prevents early aging. Ridding the body of toxins regularly helps skin recuperate more quickly from the effects of harmful chemicals and pesticides in food and body products. Not drinking enough water, in comparison, can cause skin to lose its elasticity due to dehydration. This results in dry, flaky, and tired skin. Drinking hot water can help to repair skin cells that have been damaged by exposure to germs and free radicals. Repairing this damage results in an increase in the skin’s elasticity and overall appearance. As a result, staying hydrated not only helps organs work more efficiently but also makes the skin glow.

Prevent Acne

Drinking hot water has a deep cleansing effect in the body and eliminates the root causes of acne-related infections, including excess oil production and clogged pores. The heat from ingested water elevates the body's temperature, inducing sweating. This has a cleansing effect on skin by stimulating the release of toxins and oils that have built up. Applying hot water to the skin can also open up the pores by dilating them and liquefy hardened sebum, allowing it to emerge from formerly blocked pores. The heat from hot water can also kill some of the bacteria that causes acne. Try drinking a cup of hot water before bed to take advantage of this cleansing effect on the skin.
