Keep Calm and Drink More Water

I know that I do not drink as much water as I am suppose to. It's really hard when our society is so use to drinking other things like juices and sodas. So, I want to talk about water today and its benefits.

How water benefits you 
When you are dehydrated, you tend to have more ache and painful sunburns. You tend to have bags under your eyes and feel more fatigue. Being dehydrated also makes you have longer hangovers. When you are hydrated, you will have a healthier scalp, along with healthy nails, hair and skin. Being hydrated also helps with weight loss

How much water are you suppose to drink?

So, for example, say you weight 150 pounds. When you compute the equation, it means that you should drink roughly 9 cups of water a day. Some people like to add fruit to their water, and that adds a extra detox to the water. Drinking 2 cups of water after you wake up helps activate your internal organs. Drinking 1 cup of water 30mins before a meal helps with digestion. Drinking 1 cup of water before a bath helps lower blood pressure. Drinking 1 cup of water before going to bed helps to avoid stroke and heart attack






Other benefits of water 





















So, this week, let's work on drinking more water!
