I don't get the water daily limit. You can drink as much water as you want on a diet (you shouldn't go on a diet anyway), because it doesn't contain any calories. I really don't understand page 6

@WillTell the limit sounds way too low imo (not only do you want more than 1 litre of water per day (iirc it was over 3 litres even), but if you don't actually eat and get water through solid food, you would want to intake more water by drinking than usual to compensate), but there is definitely reasons to not drink too much water.
I think the first you would notice is essentially dehydration without being dehydrated: the water essentially desalinates you, producing similar symptoms. While not quite the reason, this is kinda the reason why sports drinks are not pure water: we need salts to actually absorb the water well, etc. et al. And sweating/urinating/stuff steals stuff alongside the water too, which needs to be replenished.

It's interesting that she is enlightened after fasting. Is elma Buddhist? Maybe it has to do with the fact shes a harmony dragon .thanks translator

I get it that if you overhydrate yourself, it might kill you but drinking only what's on the kettle? Eh... It would be problematic for them if they were in the tropics and arid areas of the world because you're much more likely to be dehydrate.

Drop this here just in case:
1. Fasting is bullshit, you only damage your body with that.
2. Fasting will make you lose weight in short term, but in long term your will gain even more weight as your body think you don't have enough food and enable "storage mode". Simply put: it's gonna turn as much food into fat as possible to "save it for future".
3. Exercise instead. No matter how many calories you take, you won't get fat if you burn them out with exercises.
4. "1l water limit" is extremely bullshit. Please drink more water.

People give her a hard time but Lucoa-sama is easily the MVP in this story.

''But i came to know that hunger and wanting to eat are completely different things'' I am stil surprised to see how many confuse the both of them. Thankfully, we never were hungry on our whole lives.

I hope the punchline starts moving away from "elma eats a lot". I mean it's cute and funny but it's getting overused I think
