Water is your body’s most important nutrient. It is involved in every bodily function and makes up 70-75% of your total body weight. Simply said, the amount of one’s personal water consumption can come from listening to the wisdom of one’s own body and drink according to thirst. However, as it sometimes can be difficult to read the signs delivered from your body, the goal should be to consume a minimum of 8 glasses of water daily - We all know this, but lets put it to practise!!
It is very important to be fully hydrated prior to exercise, as your muscles will be better lubricated for performance. Additionally, drink small amounts of water frequently, during exercise to maintain proper hydration. Try not to drink water while eating, as digestive enzymes are diluted, and food nutrients are not effectively extracted. Wait 30 minutes before or one hour after a meal to drink any type of beverage. Early Morning Detox: Try drinking a large glass of water with the juice of half a lemon first thing on waking up. This is a perfect detox to kick start your system and clean out all of those toxins your body has been working hard to detoxify while you are sleeping.
