Don't forget to drink your water everyday! Here are a few reasons that have made my top 10 list of why you should drink more water everyday.
How much water should I drink? You should drink about half of your body weight in ounces of water per day. So if I am a 140 pound woman, I should drink about 70 ounces of water per day.

Here's the scoop...
Top ten's of water consumption....
1. Increases Energy & Relieves Fatigue –
Since your brain is mostly water, drinking it helps you think, focus and
concentrate better and be more alert. As an added bonus, your energy levels are
also boosted!
2. Promotes Weight Loss – Removes by-products of
fat, reduces eating intake (by filling up your tummy if consumed prior to
meals), reduces hunger (hello natural appetite suppressant!), raises your
metabolism and has zero calories!
3. Flushes Out Toxins – Gets rid of waste
through sweat and urination which reduces the risk of kidney stones and UTI’s
(urinary tract infections).
4. Improves Skin Complexion –
Moisturizes your skin, keeps it fresh, soft, glowing and smooth. Gets rid of
wrinkles. It’s the best anti-aging treatment around!
5. Maintains Regularity – Aids in digestion
as water is essential to digest your food and prevents constipation.
6. Boosts Immune System – A water guzzler
is less likely to get sick. And who wouldn’t rather feel healthy the majority
of the time? Drinking plenty of water helps fight against flu, cancer and other
ailments like heart attacks.
7. Natural Headache Remedy – Helps relieve and
prevent headaches (migraines & back pains too!) which are commonly caused
by dehydration.
8. Prevents Cramps & Sprains -
Proper hydration helps keep joints lubricated and muscles more elastic so joint
pain is less likely.
9. Puts You in a Good Mood – When the body is
functioning at its best, you will feel great and be happy!
10. Save Money! - Water is FREE!
Even if you choose bottled/filtered water, it’s STILL cheaper than that high
sugar and fat-filled latte!
Have a great day!
Until next time.....
