Water! You either love to drink it or you hate it. I hear
too many people complain - "why do I need to drink more water instead of
'tasty' drinks like coffee, soda, and energy drinks?". In honor of drink
water month, here are the TWO simple and important reasons I choose water
over any other drink on the market!
You Are Healthier!
I feel like a broken record saying this, but sometimes people need to hear something important five, six, or twenty times before they take action. (What number are you on?)
Coffee is grown in regions outside the US where there are less regulations of pesticide use. Creamers have artificial flavorings and preservatives. Energy drinks have artificial chemicals and excessive amounts of caffeine. Many flavored waters use artificial ingredients. Sports drinks are highly concentrated with sugar and artificial coloring. Have I used the term artificial enough yet?
Distilled and reverse osmosis water are your best options for hydration. Every biochemical reaction in your body requires water. If you are drinking artificial chemicals, then that requires extra reactions for your body to detoxify, which depletes your water stores (this is why the drinks I mentioned above will actually DEhydrate you and not the other way around). Water is the only true source of hydration, so grab your glass, raise it high and toast to a healthier life through the consumption of more water.
You Are Wealthier!
Nothing in life is free, but it sure is way less expensive than coffee or an energy drink.
Let’s say the average 20oz drink costs about two dollars and the average person who does not like to drink water consumes 2-3 of those beverages per day. They are spending about FIVE (average of 4-6) dollars per day on beverages alone (and trust me, that is probably a low ball estimate for some). That is $35 per week or $140 per month on drinks alone! You can get a 5 gallon jug of reverse osmosis water for less than $5, that would last over a week for an individual consuming 80oz of water per day. Did you keep up with all the math?!?! When I can improve my health and wealth with one simple change, it doesn’t get much better than that!
Water is the third most important nutrient the body needs to function behind nerve supply and oxygen supply. Your spine protects nerve supply, so have your spine checked by your chiropractor. Your heart and lungs coordinate oxygen supply, so have those checked by your cardiologist. You and only you regulate how much water you are drinking, so please consume 60-100 oz of pure water daily for your new health habit. CHEERS and bottoms up!
