Essential Benefits of Water
Water is the elixir
of life. The body fluid is made up of about 60% of water which makes it
essential to life.
Benefits of Drinking
Water are:
· Improves the heart
When you are
dehydrated, you feel tired, depleted and drained. Drinking plenty water helps
to improve the heart to pump effectively. Water also helps your blood to
transport oxygen and other essentials nutrients to your body cells.
·
Reduces Stress
When you are thirsty, it means you are already dehydrated
and to help keep stress levels down, drink plenty water as it improves the body
and state of mind.
·
Lubricates the Joints
When you are well hydrated, you can
exercise longer. Drinking water helps prevent muscle cramps as well as
lubricates joints in the body.
· · Revitalizes the body
Water is nature's own beauty cream. Drinking water
hydrates skin cells and plumps them up, making your face look younger. It also
flushes out impurities and improves circulation and blood flow, thereby helping
your skin glow, hair shinier and a healthier body.
· · Aids Digestion and Prevents
Constipation
If you're dehydrated, your body absorbs all the water,
leaving your colon dry and making it more difficult to pass waste. Water is
important for good digestion when added with fiber as it helps dissolve waste
particles and passes them smoothly through your digestive tract.
Drinking enough water prevents constipation as it reduces the burden on the
kidneys and liver by helping to flush waste products.
· · Dissolves Kidney Stones
The rate of painful kidney stones is rising at an alarming
rate. One of the reasons could be because people -- including children --
aren't drinking enough water. Water dilutes the salts and minerals in your
urine that form the solid crystals known as kidney stones. Kidney stones can't
form in diluted urine, so reduce your risk with plenty of water!
· ·

Dehydration can
impair your attention span, memory and motor skills. Drinking water helps you
if you need to concentrate for long periods of time, as it enable you stay refreshed,
hydrated and focused. It can also be substituted for coffee. Interesting you

full and eat less. It also boost metabolism.
