We all hear that water is important but just in case you were wondering exactly why, here a 10 reasons to drink more water.
1. The body is
made up of about 60% water, which helps regulate body temperature, transport
nutrients in the body, digestion, and circulation to name a few. Replenishing
the water in the body, which is lost through breathing, sweating, urinating and
bowel movement, helps to ensure the body carries out its functions properly.
2. Water helps
to transport all the toxins, and waste produced by the body out of the body. A
quick way to check if you are hydrated is by the color of your urine, if its
light yellow/pale/clear in color then you are hydrated but if its dark
yellow/orange and has a strong smell you know you need more water.
3. Lack of
water leads to dehydration, which is when your body does not have enough fluids
to carry out its daily functions.
4. Drinking
water helps to fill up the stomach and reduce hunger while at the same time
increasing your metabolism.
5. Water has
zero calories.
6. Proper
hydration keeps the joints and muscles well lubricated which reduces the
likelihood of pain/soreness.
7. Water helps
improve skin elasticity, and leaves the skin moisturized.
8. Water can
help prevent headaches.
9. Water helps
reduce fatigue during exercise, and reduces recovery time
10. Water helps
to regulate the body temperature.
8 ounces a day is a good starting point
Note: Please make sure to consult your doctor before
engaging in physical activity.
