Drink more water!
Simple, pure, refreshing water.
Our
body is approximately 60% water (that's over half people) so we need to
be replenishing ourselves - clearing out toxins, lubricating our
joints/organs, etc. The list could go on and on for the health benefits
of water and I don't want to bore you so I'll make it simple: water is
ESSENTIAL and there is NO substitute for it.
By substitute, I mean this:
or this:
or any of this:
and even this (not even the diet kind, believe me you
aren't doing your body any favours by drinking diet):
You aren't going to go wrong when you drink water - pure water.
If
for some crazy reason you think water is bland and tasteless (you will
learn to love it if you cut out 100% of all other drinks), you can add
fruit or veggie slices to your water. This will give the water a touch
of flavour without the added sugar and other nasty things that are in
beverages these days.
There
are some drinks, of course, that have definite benefits. An example is
tea. I drink a large cup of green, honey-lemon-ginseng-tea in the
morning. I used to really love coffee but after being told that maybe my
body isn't responding to it well and I should try switching to green
tea, I have lost that tummy pooch and haven't had an afternoon sugar
low. So be careful with coffee, apparently lots of people don't handle
it well and don't even know it. Listen to your body!
So
maybe you are someone that doesn't drink any pure water in a day. Then I
suggest switching one of your other beverages to water each day until
you are mostly drinking water. Maybe you are someone that doesn't drink
much water or drink much of anything else either, then I suggest you
adopt the water bottle as your new accessory. Carry it everywhere with
you and take little sips every few minutes.
Personally, I love a stainless steel water bottle. They seem to keep the water cold longer.
So what do ya say? Join me in the H20 revolution!
