The hot blazing sun and sweating in summers makes all of us rush to the magical powers of water. However, water is important not only in summers, but in winters too. If water rejuvenates and refreshes you in summer, it does so in winter too. However, most of us just don't think about water during the cold winter season and the reason is quite obvious: we don't sweat and neither do we feel hot and thirsty.

Why Water is important in winter?

During winters, our appetite rises and we tend to eat richer food. This leads to more water requirement by the body to digest the food. Thus, you need to provide your body with adequate amount of water so as to aid digestion and avoid digestion related problems. Similarly, water is needed for keeping your skin soft and supple during the dry wintry conditions. Providing adequate amount of water to your body also aids in preventing various problems like sinuses and congestion which are frequent during winters.

How much Water should I drink in Winter?

The body requirement of water varies in people but the thumb rule is:

• Women need about 6-8 glasses of water
• Exercising women need 8-12 glasses of water
