Hydration plays a huge roll in your overall health.
Skin Health.
Drop the expensive moisturizer, and grab a tall glass of water. Staying hydrated keeps your skin soft, moisturized, and glowing! Think of water as your INTERNAL moisturizer. It's also important to
Regular.
Constipation may not be a pretty topic to talk about, but unfortunately, it's a very common health problem. If you struggle with constipation, you may be dehydrated. Drinking plenty of water throughout the day can help keep things moving! Before you pour your favorite cup of coffee, you should consume at least 8-16oz of water.
Flush Toxins.
The truth is we live in a very toxic environment. You can try your best to avoid toxins by using non-toxic personal care products, consuming organic food, eliminating plastic, and drinking filtered water. Unfortunately there are still some factors that we can't control. Toxins can build up over time, and overwhelm our liver. Drinking water can help your body flush out these unwanted toxins.
Energy.
There is no need for that afternoon energy drink or soda when you're hydrated. Water is your key to staying energized! Keeping your cells hydrated fuels your mitochondria. Mitochondria are very tiny organelles that live within your cell. Let's just say that keeping them hydrated and happy is essential for energy throughout the day, and your overall health. Our bodies are very intelligent, we just need to fuel them with what they need.
Decrease Hunger.
It's very easy to confuse the feeling of hunger for thirst. When you are hydrated you will crave less and snack less throughout the day. Try drinking a glass of water before you grab a snack. If you are still hungry after the water, then have the snack! It’s important to be in tune with your bodies signals.
