Drinking water can seem a bit of a chore. Especially with the vast choice of other drinks, you see during the weekly shop. Or when you go out for a meal and the drinks menu is full of cocktails, alcohol, and fizzy pops. Now we are not saying you should only drink water, but it is important to drink at least 2 liters of water-based drinks a day. After all, 60% of your body is made up of it, so you need to keep it topped up.
We never used to drink enough daily, and as a result, we noticed our bodies were suffering. Our skin was drying out, and we always had headaches. Since we’ve ensured we drink at least 2 liters a day. We have noticed these symptoms have disappeared, and we feel healthier and happier in ourselves. Here are just a few of the reasons why water is good for you:
Your brain is made up of 73% water, so if you don’t drink enough, your mind can become dehydrated. When dehydrated, your brain does not perform how it should. It becomes sluggish, and your memory is affected. You may also become more sensitive to pain.
Your skin is an organ that can become dehydrated too. When your skin lacks hydration, it becomes dry and flaky. By drinking enough water, you can help clear dry skin and prevent wrinkles. Giving your skin a radiant glow.
Water is known to flush toxins out of your body and carry oxygen around. These both play a big part in strengthening the immune system. Remember to drink lots in the cold, damp months to help you stop catching a cold.
Now you know about some of the benefits of drinking water, here are a few tips for you to use. Especially if you are one of the many people who find it lacking in flavor.
Filtered tastes much nicer than straight from a tap. It also removes any chlorine and bacterial contaminants. Since a filter removes toxins it can also aid the reduction and risk of certain diseases. If you enjoy going out, you can purchase a water bottle with a built-in filter to take with you.
If you become bored of drinking it plain. Why don’t you add some slices of lemon or give cucumber and raspberries a try? You can add anything you like, drop it in before bed, and leave it overnight. When you wake up, you will have lovely fresh flavored water to sip.
If you’re not great at keeping track of your water intake during the day, purchase a bottle that has the hours marked on. This way you can ensure you are drinking your 2 liters a day.
Water may seem like just another mundane drink and at times it may seem like there are many better options for flavor out there. But truthfully the best drink to have is simply water. From its all-around hydrating factors to the endless health benefits, why wouldn’t you drink the healthiest and cheapest drink there is. It’s the drink we have always drank since the beginning of mankind so why stop now!
