2. Promotes Weight Loss
Removes by-products of fat, reduces eating intake (by filling up yourtummy 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![/vc_column_text][vc_separator type=”transparent”][vc_column_text]If you don’t like drinking water plain consider other sources of beverages and foods that can ensure you’re getting your adequate fill. Watermelon for instance is 91% water, green tea and non-sweetened beverages, such as carbonated lime or lemon fruit waters (non-sweetened), and eating more fruits and vegetables like apples, oranges, grapes, melon and tomatoes, cucumbers… all help achieve proper hydration.
Just take care with sugary beverages. Too much sugar is doing you no favours and is actually the number 1 enemy for the skin, never mind the waist! But the enemy that is sugar deserves a post all of its own![/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]
