Nutritional guidance on water consumption during meals

Overview

Nutrition experts have addressed common misconceptions regarding water consumption during meals. While the belief that drinking water during meals harms digestion or dilutes gastric juices is considered a myth for healthy individuals, experts note that excessive liquid intake can lead to bloating, gastric discomfort, or exacerbate reflux in certain people.

To manage consumption, experts suggest drinking 200 to 300 ml of water 15 to 30 minutes before a meal. During the meal, small sips are acceptable if thirst arises, though it is recommended not to exceed approximately 300 ml. Additionally, while water is the ideal choice, sugary or alcoholic beverages may increase calorie intake and cause abdominal discomfort.
