Your body contains 60% of water and you are constantly losing some of it during your day – that’s normal. And you know that dehydration is bad, but why is that actually?
Why does it matter that you drink for example up to 2 liters of water per day?
Because of dehydration:
- affects your energy levels and brain function
- causes impaired mood and concentration
- increased frequency of headaches
- performance and endurance suffer
Drinking water can be related to weight loss because it can temporarily increase your metabolism and drinking it 30 minutes before a meal makes you eat less. Sparkling Water, in addition, adds a desirable “feeling full faster” feeling and you consume fewer calories.
Drinking more water might help with:
- Constipation
- Cancer
- Kidney stones
- Acne and skin hydration
The science here is still in a very early stage and more needs to be done.
Trust your thirst – it’s essential for your survival. And during extreme times (exercise, hot weather, dry climate) monitor your water intake a bit more consciously.
And if you are older then the thirst mechanism can start to malfunction and needs a bit of checking.
Try experimenting with what works best for you.
