... "WATER" ...
Have a great Day,

Drinking Water Hydration is one of the major benefits of drinking water.
It is vital to life itself and the significant health benefits of water are
almost too great a number to count. Improved energy, weight loss and a
natural, healthy glow are merely the tip of the iceberg.
Did you know that over 70% of our body is water, yet 75% of Americans are
chronically dehydrated. The human brain is made up of 75% water,
blood is 82%, our lungs are 90% and the human liver is
made up of an amazing 96% water.
Every life giving and healing process that happens inside our body
happens with water and the benefits of drinking water daily are vast. By
drinking an adequate amount of clean, healthy water, our body has a greater
capacity to naturally cleanse and heal itself.
The Most Important Benefits Of Drinking Water:
Remove Toxins & Waste Products from your body.
This is only possible when water, our body's transport medium is clean.
Wastes form during the body's metabolism in a similar way as a car gives off
poisonous fumes from its combustion process. If these wastes are allowed to
accumulate through insufficient water intake, fatigue and even illness
results.
Improve Your Energy
Did you know that lack of water is the #1 trigger of daytime fatigue?
It's been medically proven that just a 5% drop in body fluids will cause a
25-30% loss of energy in the average person. The liver uses water
to metabolize fat into useable energy. It has been estimated that over 80%
of our population suffers energy loss due to minor dehydration.
One of the major benefits of drinking water is the role it plays in the
function of our brain and nervous system. If fluids inside our
nerve's waterways become contaminated with synthetic chemicals, our energy
levels are greatly affected by the amount of water we drink.
Weight Loss and Skin Care
All weight loss programs are based on a reduced calorie intake and an
increased rate of metabolism. Both of these objectives are 'naturally'
achieved with an increased intake of clean, healthy drinking water. Water is
also the key ingredient in keeping our skin moist‚ subtle and
resilient. The best way to moisturize is from the inside. Drinking more
water will result in softer‚ healthier‚ younger looking skin.
Reduce Headaches
Most headaches can be overcome by 2 glasses of water and a 20-minute break.
Our brain is made up of over 75% water. When it detects a shortage of water
in the body, it immediately jumps into action. Histamines are released to
conserve water in the body, slow us down, and signal that something is
wrong. Histamines cause pain and fatigue, hence the headache.
So drink up the next time you feel a headache coming on.
Eliminate Dehydration
Morning sickness is thought to be "normal" in the early stages of pregnancy.
In most cases, it is however a direct result of dehydration. During the
night the uterus draws water from the mother's system to maintain adequate
fluid levels for the fetus. In the morning, after many hours of no water
intake, the mother awakens in a state of nausea, fatigue and
dehydration...hence the term Morning sickness.
The common hangover produces the same symptoms and is a direct result of
advanced dehydration. Alcohol is a strong diuretic and causes the body to
excrete large amounts of water. Drinking plenty of water before and during
the night may prevent both morning sickness and a hangover.
Relief for Arthritis and minor back pain
Arthritis pain, stiffness and minor back pain are often the result of
a deficiency in body fluid levels. In arthritis, cartilage surfaces rub
against each other and this rheumatoid joint pain is a signal of water
shortage.
The discs in our back are like little hydraulic shock absorbers that
are filled with fluid; primarily water. Standing or sitting with minimal
joint movement for even moderate periods of time allow constant pressure on
the discs and force water out. The disc shell has to support a larger
portion of the weight load and this causes pain, swelling and stiffness.
Maintaining regular movement and adequate body water levels can prevent most
minor back pain and neck pain.
The health benefits of drinking water do not stop here.
We should also be aware that the benefits of drinking water are closely
related to the quality of water we consume. If we drink water that contains
chlorine or other organic and inorganic chemicals, we force our liver and
kidneys to be the filter. This ultimately damages or destroys two of
our most vital organs.
Water may not be a cure-all, but it is a primary
ingredient that allows our body to begin the prevention and the healing of
diseases and illnesses in our body.
This is very likely the most important of all benefits of drinking Water.
