Study Warns: Risks of Drinking Warm Water on an Empty Stomach Every Morning

A recent study has confirmed the general benefits of drinking water on an empty stomach. However, excessive consumption of warm water daily before breakfast may carry potential health risks, according to experts.

A report published by Healthside outlines several possible negative effects doctors warn about, including:

  • Acid Reflux (GERD):
    Drinking warm water in the morning may worsen acid reflux symptoms, leading to heartburn, chest pain, and other uncomfortable complications.

  • Digestive Issues:
    Consuming large amounts of warm water on an empty stomach can cause digestive disturbances, especially in individuals with existing gastrointestinal conditions. The problem may be exacerbated if the water is too hot.

  • Tooth Enamel Erosion:
    Regular intake of warm water over extended periods may contribute to the erosion of tooth enamel, particularly if the water is slightly acidic or excessively hot. This risk is higher in those with pre-existing dental issues.

  • Interference with Medication Absorption:
    Drinking warm water on an empty stomach may interfere with the absorption of certain medications, such as iron supplements or specific antibiotics, reducing their effectiveness.
