So How Much Water Do We Need To Drink
Lately there has been a buzz talking about how much water we really need to drink. Some now say that we don’t need glass after glass but only need to drink when we are thirsty.
They say that the water doesn’t help to hydrate the skin, get rid of toxins, help with weight loss or even help to avoid headaches.
I say bunk!
Have you ever been on vacation or away a few days and haven’t had enough water? You don’t feel as energetic and your skin surely shows a dryness. Also scan through any of the blogs by super models and see what their top skin care tip is —it’s always drinking lots of water. Now you may thing that researchers know more than a super model, but you must also realize that a super model relies on having exceptional skin –and she would notice a difference right away.
Also look at paparazzi photos of those who rely on beautiful skin -they are always seen with a water bottle. These are people who lose work if their skin is not at their best and if they are not feeling their best.
Although I don’t believe that the 8 glass theory is correct, I do believe that you should be drinking half you weight in ounces each day. For example: if you weight 150 pounds you should drink around 75 ounces a day. 120 pounds - 60 ounces. And if you live in a dry climate or sweat a lot from physical exertion you should drink more.
Just take a look at those around you. Who looks and act healthy and who doesn’t, then find out how much water they drink and you’ll see that those who are healthy drink more.
What do you think?
