Publisher's Summary

An ice-cold glass of water on a warm day sounds like an appealing suggestion to many, and it’s likely the done thing in your neighborhood. But it might surprise you to know that outside the Western world, drinking cold water is seen as positively bizarre.

Indeed, in Asian, and particularly Chinese, cultures, drinking cold water is not only strange, but very rarely done.

With roots in Chinese medicinal practices, instead of cold water on a hot day, hot water is the drink of choice.

It sounds a little odd, doesn’t it? As odd to us as drinking cold water is to Eastern culture. But is there something to it?

Inside Drinking Hot Water, you’ll learn why switching to hot water might be the right move for you with key information like:

  • The millennia of history of hot water drinking in Asian culture and how the practice became integral to healthy living
  • The theories and evidence for the health benefits of drinking warm water
  • The multitude of negative impacts of many of our daily drinks, like energy and soft drinks
  • A variety of health tips from Asian medicine that you can adopt in your daily life to improve your health

Drinking hot water is something you can learn to not only do, but love doing, when you understand the myriad health improvements you can gain from it.

You’ll also pick up tips on food, sleep, and lifestyle that will help you get even more from what Asian culture has to offer.

If you’re looking for a simple lifestyle change, backed up by thousands of years of testing, then try Drinking Hot Water, and from there, take a journey of positive changes to improve your health!
