April 1st 2008 07:19
If you had any doubts about drinking water here are 10 good reasons. Ideally drink at least 6-8 x 300ml glasses per day. One good way to start the day is with 300mls of warm water with the juice of half a lemon.
1. Drinking enough water helps to maintain good energy levels. Even mild dehydration can lead to fatigue.
2. Water helps to regulate appetite. Often thirst is often mistaken for hunger pains – we eat when we should be drinking a glass of water instead.
3. Our skin reflects our state of hydration. Dehydrated skin is sign of total body dehydration.
4. The brain is approximately 78% water. Without enough it doesn’t function properly. If you are feeling a little fuzzy headed, try a glass of water.
5. Water is essential for survival. We can live for weeks without food, but only days without water.
6. Adequate water reduces the risk of some cancers such as bladder and breast cancer.
7. Water flushes toxins and bacteria out of the body
8. It aids digestion. Inadequate quantities can lead to constipation
9. Water is essential for proper circulation.
10. Water helps to regulate body temperature...particularly important during the Summer months.
