Power of Water

The human body is made up mostly of water. Water helps to flush out toxins from your systems. It keeps organs, including the skin lubricated and functioning properly. Water helps to carry nutrients to the cells. You could only live for three days without water getting into your system. Even mild dehydration causes fatigue, headaches, and make you more susceptible to illness.

Even though you have these other choices the majority of your water intake should be plain, clean, clear water. Here are a few signs to watch out for so that you know you have had enough water to drink:

Are you thirsty? If you are often feeling thirsty then you probably are in a mild dehydration. Drinking more water will definitely benefit you. On the other hand if your thirst is usually quenched you are on the right track.

What color is your urine? This may seem like an odd question, but if your urine is dark you are not getting enough water. Having enough water in your system will turn your urine lighter, almost clear and you will need to go more frequently.

How do you feel? One of the first signs of mild dehydration is fatigue. If you are tired it might not be that you need more sleep, but that you need more water!

Water is a great diet aid. Not only does it work to keep the body regulated internally, but also promotes weight loss by flushing fat from the body. Drinking water also makes a dieter feel fuller and more satiated so that they eat less food. If you are dieting, be sure to add water to your daily menu plan its essential for optimal results.
