He found an association between a 1 percent increase in the subjects’ daily intake of plain water and an
8.6-calorie reduction in food intake. An also discovered a slight reduction in foods high in fat, sugar, sodium and cholesterol with the change. Participants that increased their plain water consumption by one to three cups
