Drink atleast 8 glasses of water daily…
Water is your body’s principal chemical component, making up, on average, 60 percent of your body weight. Every system in your body depends on water. For example, water flushes toxins out of vital organs, carries nutrients to your cells and provides a moist environment for ear, nose and throat tissues.
- Water is an essential component of the human body.
- Water acts as a nourishing agent : Water circulates through the blood and helps transport nutrients and oxygen towards organs and cells. It acts as a solvent for many nutrients and essential salts and makes them available for absorption by the body.
- Water is a cleansing agent : It also serves as a medium to carry metabolic wastes away from the body – this is accomplished in the form of urine and sweat.
- Water helps reduce the risk of kidney stones : The kidneys filter out waste products from the blood and channel them out of the body through the process of urine formation.
- Water helps reduce the risk of sunstroke : Water is the single most important factor in the highly critical function of regulating your body temperature.
- Water helps lower the blood pressure : The body tries to adjust for the loss of water by constricting blood vessels so that the rate of loss of water (due to sweating and respiration) is reduced – which in turn leads to higher blood pressure. Drink ample water to prevent this from happening.
- Water minimizes the risk of heart disease.
- Water keeps your skin in good condition.
- Water does not contain calories.
- Water suppresses appetite.
Drinking plenty of water every day is especially important for people with bipolar disorder, because certain medications may increase your risk of becoming overheated.
Water is quite possibly the single most important catalyst in losing weight and keeping it off. Although most of us take it for granted, water may be the only true “magic potion” for permanent weight loss!
Water suppresses the appetite naturally and helps the body metabolize stored fat. Studies have shown that a decrease in water intake will cause fat deposits to increase, while an increase in water intake can actually reduce fat deposits.
