Water 101
3:15:00 AMDo you drink 8 glasses of water per day? I am definitely guilty of not always drinking enough water; and I am sure (just from observations of my work colleagues) that a lot of people are neglecting this very important aspect of our lives - staying hydrated.
Here is the 101 on Water...
Water is an essential part of life, filled with minerals and electrolytes. It carries nutrients and materials such as blood cells around the body.
Humans lack the capacity to retain water as storage and therefore it is essential to consume water regularly and throughout the day. When your body is dehydrated, it causes deposits of toxic sediments in the tissue spaces, joints, kidneys, liver, brain and skin!
There are varying views on whether water can give your skin an "instant glow"; and personally I believe that we aren't plants and we do not 'perk' up instantly with glowing skin when we drink water.
However, staying hydrated each day, has in the past helped in clearing pimples/acne and dryness on my skin.
That's because water oxygenates your blood and flushes toxins
This ensures your body functions adequately, water removes toxins from your kidney, allowing cells to take nutrition and expel waste. If there is a lack of water, then waste will collect and your immune system will work less effectively.
Water enables toxins and waste to be expelled, hence you get better looking skin.
