H To The O

Water.  How many benefits can come from such a simple thing?  More than you can imagine; so drink up my fellow bloggers!

1. Trying to lose weight? Well, drinking plenty of water help you to lose weight because it flushes out the by-product of fat breakdown.  Just the name alone sounds pretty nasty, so why would you want it stored in your body!?  Drink up and flush it out.  Water also is a natural appetite suppressant so the more you drink, the less you eat.
2. Do you suffer from headaches?  Did you know that the number one aggravator of headaches is dehydration?  So drink up and stay headache free!
3. Who needs Botox when there is water all around?  You'll look younger when your skin is properly hydrated.  Water helps to replenish skin tissues, moisturize skin and increase skin elasticity.  So drink up and age in reverse!
4.  Need a boost on your workout? Drinking water helps to regulate body temperature.  You'll feel more energetic when doing exercises and water helps fuel your muscles.  So drink up and energize!
5.  Having issues in the bathroom? Fiber and water go hand in hand.  Couple that with a raised metabolism from your water intake and voila... you have a successful trip to the restroom.
6. Boost that immune system! Drinking plenty of water helps fight against flu and other ailments like kindney stones and heart attack.  Lemon added to water is used for ailments like respiratory disease, intestinal problems, rheumatism, and arthritis.  So drink up and fight cold and flu season with one hand tied behind your back.

How much water is enough water??  Lets keep it simple and apply this rule of thumb:

Drink half your weight in ounces daily.  

So, if you weigh, 140lbs, you need 70 ounces of water per day.
