Water During the day helps us Work, Rest & Play!

Water is potent stuff.
 
Over 70% of your body is composed of the stuff. Boil you down to your basic constituents and you will be left with a pile of chemicals and a large body of water. When we get 'thirsty' this is our bodies telling us that we have lost a mere 1% of the water that is sloshing around in our cells as blood and other lubricants. If we ignore this bio-feedback then we will inevitably suffer from headaches, tiredness and poor concentration and will then reach for a cup of tea or coffee, which ironically contain caffeine which is a diuretic and will help us to lose even more. Of course it is also a stimulant, so you might feel better for a time, but the root cause of your problems will often come down to the same thing. You aren't drinking enough water.

It's a fact water is the best beauty treatment!

 You've heard this since school, and it's true. Water will do wonders for your looks! It flushes out impurities in your skin, leaving you with a clear, glowing complexion. It also makes your skin look younger. Skin that is becoming wrinkeled, either due to aging or weight loss, plumps up very nicely when the skin cells are hydrated.

In addition, it improves muscle tone. You can lift weights until you're blue in the face, but if your muscles are suffering from a drought, you won't notice a pleasant difference in your appearance. Muscles that have all the water they need contract more easily, making your workout more effective.

"Eight glasses a day? Are you kidding?!"

It's really not that much. This is okay for the average person, but if you're overweight, you should drink another eight glasses for every 25 pounds of excess weight you carry. You should also up this if you work in a hot enviroment or exercise very intensely.

This water consumption should be spread out throughout the day. It's not healthy at all to drink too much water at one time. Try to pick three or four times a day when you can have a big glass of water, and then sip in between. Don't let yourself get thirsty. If you feel thirsty, you're already becoming dehydrated.
