Any smaller amount of water has no effect. So that’s about the size of your average water bottle. If you think about it, you’ve gone all night sleeping without drinking any water and while you’re body might be craving coffee to help you get up in the morning, what it really wants is that bottle of water! Even just mild forms of dehydration can bring your metabolism to a halt. With water being the main ingredient in many chemical reactions throughout the body, it really shouldn’t come as a huge surprise.




6. Decrease Body Fat Percentage
While some fat is necessary for human survive, excess fat can linger around and cause health problems later on. Men typically have anywhere from 18 to 24 % body fat and females 25-31 but quite a bit of that needs to be lost in order to be deemed as physically fit. We all come in different shapes and sizes and that’s great, but flushing out the toxins will lead to even more weight loss as your metabolism will increase. The water will help your intestines digest food quicker, allowing to leave your body faster. Remember, fat is only 20 percent water in comparison to muscle which is 70 to 75 percent water. So you’re muscles need it more and will grow faster with proper hydration. The more water added to your lean muscle tissue certainly help you gain lean muscle mass and reduce fat percentage.

5. Heart Power
Heart disease is the leading cause of death for both men and women in the US and the leading cause around the world. This vital organ is pumping every second of each day and consider water to be the lubricant which helps blood flow in and out. During a 6 year study by the american journal of epidemiology, they found out that people who drank for than 5 glasses of water were 41 percent less likely to die from heart disease than those who only drank 2 cups. This was a massive study that included 20,000 people aged from 38 to 100 years. It’s believed that basically the water helps keep your blood and plasma more viscous or able to flow better. The researchers found a high correlation with heart health and water consumption.

4. Increase Bone Strength
In addition to strengthening your heart, liver, kidney and all your vital organs, water can also increase your bone strength. Drinking distilled water can create an alkaline environment in the body which will promote bone strength. Since water is involved in all cellular processes in the body, it will assist in the rebuilding cycle . Water is needed to carry vital minerals such as calcium and magnesium to your bones, or otherwise these minerals are useless. The water will also flush the toxins that find their way to your bones that might slowly be making them become weaker. Just be careful about the inorganic materials in water, especially fluoride which might cause a negative effect.

3. Increased Energy
Dehydration is certainly something you don’t want to mess with. When water is absent from our body it may cause people weak or sluggish. More signs of dehydration include fatigue, headaches, dizziness, lightheadedness and dark urine. Since water will increase productivity of basically your entire body, and reduce symptoms of dehydration, it’s safe to say that it should leave you in not only a better mood, but will make you more productive. Instead of taking a big nap in the afternoon to re energize you, try to take a big glass of water to perk you up a little. In fact the true cause for a sluggish hungover morning is mainly from your body being dehydrated from all the alcohol. Don’t forget that it’ll also help you get rid of that sunday morning headache if you’ve been out too long.




2. You’ll Save Money
Think of how much you simply spend on various soft drinks, sugary arizona iced teas, random drinks with no nutritional value and so on. While we do understand there are some fancy water bottles out there like evian for example, a gallon of water here in the US is about $1.50 which is actually about the amount you should be drinking in one day. So if you look at it like that, you’re buying an entire day of perfect hydration for only a 1.50 maximum. That’s cheaper than your cup of coffee each morning. With so many undeniable research done on water consumption, you would believe the price would be much higher! We can’t completely suggest drinking tap water due to the unknown effects of floride which is typically added to our free water supply. But if your in a country with clean tap water like canada, france, switzerland etc, your tap water is probably just as good as our bottled water, so you don’t even need to buy any
