In addition to not drinking enough water, water can be lost through sweat, vomiting, diarrhea and using the restroom. Many problems may occur when you don't drink enough water, including heatstroke, seizures and possibly death. The first complication of not drinking enough water is dehydration. Symptoms of dehydration may include thirst, sticky or dry mouth, tongue, lips and skin as well as a mild headache.
The slight increase in metabolism that occurs for a few minutes after drinking water may be due to the body working to heat the water you drink. Although drinking water may not increase your metabolism directly, drinking more water increases blood volume in the body. This gets more oxygen and nutrients to cells and carries out more waste. These processes help increase the efficiency with which the bodyâs cells work.
