When you drink water just before or after a meal, the water dilutes the essential gastric juices, making it difficult for your system to digest food and thereby causing an upsurge in insulin levels.
Furthermore, when the food is undigested, it can lead to several health challenges such as an increase in uric acid level, heart diseases and high cholesterol levels.
It is therefore recommended that you wait for at least 30-minutes before you drink water either before or after meals.
