Drink more water !!!
From the nutritional and life-giving effect water has on the human body to helping with weight loss and even for beauty reasons, there are plenty of good reasons to drink it:
1. Drinking water keeps your skin youthful and properly hydrated. Water helps you look younger by keeping skin hydrated and reduces wrinkles by filling in and plumping the skin.
2. Water is a natural stress reliever. Even the sound of rushing waves or running water triggers a soothing response in the body and lowers stress.
3. Drinking water helps burn fat.
4. Drinking water builds healthy muscle because it carries oxygen to the cells that build and strengthen muscle tissue. Water helps to make the muscles stronger.
5. Water regulates body temperature. Water is used in perspiration to cool you down and prevent you from becoming overheated. Proper hydration also helps to bring down high fevers.
6. Water helps to protect body organs and tissues.
7. Water helps to lessen the burden on your kidneys and liver to flush out toxins and other waste products, like uric and lactic acid, from your body.
8. Asthma sufferers typically find relief when water intake is increased because the histamine levels decrease with water and increase with dehydration.
9. It helps the body heal faster when sick or undergoing treatments for ailments and helps alleviate aches and pains, even those caused by arthritis. Even if you don’t drink it, it prevents the spread of disease when you use it with soap to wash hands.
10. Warm water opens pores and cold water closes them to help create a healthy facial glow and even skin tones.
11. It helps you lose weight and maintain weight loss. The way it works is that when your belly is full of water, you are less likely to fill hungry. One study revealed that adults who drank two 8-ounce glasses of water before breakfast, lunch and dinner ended up eating 75 to 90 fewer calories during each meal.
12. Drinking water maintains a balance of fluids in our body to aid in digestion, circulation, transfer and absorption of nutrients, maintaining a proper body temperature, and to create saliva.
