Water: The Optimal Liquid

Friday, February 24th, 2012

It’s no secret that water is good for you. Everyone from fitness gurus to doctors stress the importance of drinking plenty of water each day for good health. But with drinks like soda, juice, coffee, and energy drinks heavily advertised and readily available, it’s very easy to not drink any water at all. The following are some reasons to drink H2O.

1. Water keeps skin looking great - Staying properly hydrated removes all toxins that build up in your skin and prevents it from drying out.

2. It’s inexpensive - Studies have shown that tap water is usually as clean and safe as bottled water and it obviously costs a whole lot less. If you don’t like the taste of your tap water, you can purchase a filter which will end up saving you a lot of money in the long run.

3. No sugar - While fruit juices may contain a few nutrients, they also contain a vast amount of sugar. This sudden burst of sugar triggers your insulin response and makes you tired and sluggish. Sugary sodas will produce the same reaction and the usually contain no nutrients at all.

These are just a few of the many reasons to decrease soda and juice intake and increase water intake. If you’re a loyal soda or juice drinker, try drinking a little more water each day. The results will be amazing!
