How many people can say they drink at least 8 glasses of water each day? With busy schedules at work and at home it takes a lot of effort to think about drinking all the water our bodies need and sometimes we simply forget! Water is one of the best ways to hydrate but every person is different. If you aren’t sure if you get the recommended 8 glasses there are other ways to know if you are drinking enough. The best way is to look at the color of your urine. If it is a pale yellow then you are set! You may also notice that your skin will have more elasticity and your head won’t be foggy. Don’t like the taste of water? Add a squirt of lemon or lime, mint or cucumber. You don't necessarily need to drink 8 full glasses as long as you feel good, but why not give it a try and see what happens! Add a few more ounces to your day and you might be amazed!

Top 10 Benefits of Drinking Water: Don't Medicate, Hydrate!
1. Increases Energy & Relieves Fatigue
Since your brain is mostly water, drinking it helps you think, focus and concentrate better and be more alert. As an added bonus, your energy levels are also boosted!
2. Promotes Weight Loss
Removes by-products of fat, reduces eating intake (by filling up your tummy if consumed prior to meals), reduces hunger (natural appetite suppressant!), raises your metabolism and has zero calories!
3. Flushes Out Toxins
Gets rid of waste through sweat and urination which reduces the risk of kidney stones and UTI’s (urinary tract infections).
4. Improves Skin Complexion
Moisturizes your skin, keeps it fresh, soft, glowing and smooth. Gets rid of wrinkles. It’s the best anti-aging treatment around!
5. Maintains Regularity
Aids in digestion as water is essential to digest your food and prevents constipation.
6. Boosts Immune System
A water guzzler is less likely to get sick. And who wouldn’t rather feel healthy the majority of the time?
7. Natural Headache Remedy
Helps relieve and prevent headaches (migraines & back pains too!) which are commonly caused by dehydration.
8. Prevents Cramps & Sprains
Proper hydration helps keep joints lubricated and muscles more elastic so joint pain is less likely.
9. Puts You In A Good Mood
When the body is functioning at its best, you will feel great and be happy!
10. Save Money!
Water is FREE! Even if you choose bottled/filtered water, it’s STILL cheaper than that high sugar and fat-filled latte!
