A nutritionist stated that it is contraindicated to drink a glass of water before going to sleep

A nutritionist advises against drinking water before bedtime, stating it can disrupt digestion and sleep quality.

In a recent segment on LN+, nutritionist Ana Chezzi discussed the common nighttime habit of drinking a glass of water before bed, which she asserts may not be beneficial for digestion. According to Chezzi, drinking water before sleep can dilute digestive juices, potentially leading to discomfort and affecting one's ability to fall asleep. She emphasized that if dinner has been particularly heavy, it would be wise to avoid drinking water right before going to bed.

Chezzi further advised that hydration should be prioritized throughout the day, recommending individuals consume around one and a half to two liters of water daily, ideally before and during meals to aid digestion and overall health. The discussion also included recommendations on optimal dining times, with Chezzi suggesting that the perfect time for the last meal of the day would be around eight o'clock in the evening.

This advice from Chezzi highlights a common misconception many people develop regarding hydration habits, especially in Argentine households. By providing alternatives for water consumption, she aims to promote healthier practices and better sleep quality, reinforcing the idea that proper hydration timing can influence both digestion and restful sleep.
