The side effects of lack of hydration are digestive, skin, bladder and kidney problems, fatigue and headache. We need as much water as air we breathe! Do not joke with hydration of your body.
Did you know that hydration actually sets in just before you start to feel thirsty? Drinking water throughout the day is the best way to avoid getting dehydrated. Always have a bottle or glass of water on hand!
If you are not a morning person, drinking two glasses of water right after waking up will boost your blood pressure to a normal level, and it’s healthier than drinking your first coffee on an empty stomach.
Most people believe that fruit juices, sodas or tea hydrate as much as water. It’s not true. In fact it is quite the opposite! To cope with excess sugar and salt, you need to drink large amounts of water to cleanse your system. And if you like your coffee, be sure to drink an extra glass of water for every cup you drink.
Drinking water regularly speeds up your metabolism and makes you feel fuller. You will eat less when you start drinking more! It is the safest and healthiest way to lose weight. Drink it!
