Still probably a good thing to do. This belief probably came from Japanese Water Therapy.
It doesn't make that claim any less bullshit though. I mean, I could tell people to stop smoking, because it makes you phlegmatic. The end result could still be a good thing, but the claim itself is absolute horsecrap.
> Hydrating the body first thing in the morning (..) improves immunity by flushing out toxins Absolute bullshit.
Any time I hear someone talking about “flushing out toxins” I assume that everything else being said is nonsense as well.
Not saying claims are substantiated, but depends what it truly means to the individual. I know the effect on me, since I've tried it for longer periods of time (though I'd advice against drinking too much water during the day, as proponents often claim is soo healthy). If there's miracles, it's rather subtle. No need to become super-men or women! ;)
Science is all about experential experimentation after all (with healthy dose of scepticism).

Could you please substantiate your loud comment?
If your body isn't already "flushing out toxins", you are suffering from liver or kidney problems, and you should see a doctor immediately .
There's also exhaggerated sales-claims from believers ofc.

I AM saying there’s no evidence that doing so “flushes toxins from your body”. The word toxins here is what is suspect, as that term is way overused these days, and rarely in a way that aligns with its actual meaning.
tl;dr Toxins means something specific and if your body is full of toxins you should probably seek medical assistance at once. Drinking water isn’t going to help.
