4. Relieves Constipation
One of the main causes of constipation is simply dehydration. Making sure that you are properly hydrated is one of the best ways to alleviate constipation. The colon pulls water from your stool to help maintain hydration.
When there is not enough water in your body, your stools can become quite hard and difficult to pass through the colon. When you start drinking more water you should see a drastic improvement in your bowel movements as they will pass through the colon much easier.
In addition, water helps improve the entire digestive process.
