Drink More Water!

The number one biggest health mistake that most people make is that they do not drink enough water. We are talking water — not coffee, soda, juice, milk…just plain water. Everyone has heard that they should be drinking 8-10 glasses per day, but few people do. The fact is that the majority of the population walks around in a constant state of dehydration. The first symptom of dehydration is hunger, followed by headache, then: dry sinus, dry skin, unjustified stress, fatigue, lack of concentration, dry eyes to name a few. You can not lose weight, deal with stress, eliminate waste, digest food, grow new cells, metabolize nutrients or perform any bodily function properly without water.

Picture your blood vessels slightly collapsed. The bloodstream is the river of life. If your bloodstream cannot deliver all of your nutrients to your cells, even the finest diet and nutrition cannot be utilized to regenerate your health and fight off disease. The single most important thing to insure your future health is to drink half your body weight in ounces of water (80 ounces for a 160 lb. person) per day.

Your Water Solution

Here is the solution: Right now, measure the amount of water your water bottle holds. Let’s say it is 15 ounces. Put 5 rubber bands on the bottle and fill it with water. Every time you refill, take a rubber band off and in only a day or two you will be up to capacity with water and feeling better for it. It takes 51 days to make a habit so stick with it for almost 2 months then it will come naturally. You will do it automatically without the rubber bands.

I will bet that you will feel better when you are hydrated. Headaches will disappear, sinus problems will go away, you will have more energy and it will be easier to follow your weight loss program. Did you know that most Americans mistake thirst for hunger? When you are fully hydrated you will not be as hungry and you will increase your metabolism.

Try drinking more water and then come back to this post after 51 days and comment on the changes in your life. I am looking forward to hearing from you.
