some telegram rabbithole I found last week had a post about "advice you won't learn from your doctor"

leaving aside the completely clickbait headline, there actually was one item in that post which I had never considered as a deliberate habit before, although it's completely obvious in retrospect:

drink a glass of water before your coffee

Can't it be after?

the idea is to already be more hydrated before the diuretic effect of the caffeine kicks in.

the original post didn't give any exact recommendation.

for me, I just prepended the water to the beginning of my coffee prep routine, which is a few minutes, mostly boiling time.
