Water

Water is the key to healthy living. The old myth that states you need to drink 2 liters a day is not a myth, and I’m not asking you to drink it all at once. 2 glasses of water after waking up helps activate you internal organs. It helps kick start your metabolism which is very important, especially when watching your weight (which everyone should be doing at all times!!). Water is also just as effective as coffee when looking for that energy boost in the morning.

1 glass of water 30 minutes before a meal helps with digestion which is good because it helps your body not store all that food in your body for too long (we won’t go into too much detail here).

1 glass of water before a bath or shower helps lower blood pressure. Let’s face it, we like our hot showers. Now a days our lives are very quick, busy, and on the go. We already stress our body out enough, and the heat of the shower keeps you blood flowing even faster. A glass of water helps hydrate your system and helps try to keep you blood pressure stabilized.

Feeling hungry? Have some water. Chances are that if your tummy is growling, it may mean your body is dehydrated, not hungry. Have a glass of water instead. You may feel better instead of over eating.
