WATER, WATER, WATER

As I sit here this morning and enjoy my big glass of water, I think to myself all of the wonderful benefits it is providing my body.

Water is one of nature's most important gifts to mankind, it really is!

It is the most essential element in maintaning a healthy lifestyle.

Here's a list to just name a few;
  •  necessary for digestion and the absorbstion of food
  • helps maintain proper muscle tone
  • supplies oxygen and all the right nutrients to your cells
  • rids your body of waste
  • serves as a natural air conditioning system
  • helps metabolize stored fat, so a significant factor in losing weight
  • hydrates your skin, especially in pregnancy (helps reduce stretch marks)
  • helps the body to detoxify
  • helps build up your immune system
  • decreases the risk of colon cancer, bladder cancer, breast cancer and so many over diseases
P.s. This list could go on and on and on......

The recommended amount is to drink at least 8 glasses of water daily. I say drink 12!!!
I love my water and I am pretty much drinking it all day, always refilling my water canister. I have never been one to drink pop or juice (unless it's real juice from a juicer) and I only have my organic coffee in the morning..Because we all know those early mornings with the kiddies could really use that added boost!

So what was the whole point to this post??

Drink your WATER ladies and get your children started early. My son has been drinking water since introducing him to a sippy cup, he never drinks juice (once again unless real "juicer" juice) and absolutely loves it. I am so blown away when I see the crap people drink these days....just sugar, high caloric yuckiness!!

So when you wake up in the morning, start your day off right. Enjoy a nice tall cup of cold, refreshing water!!!

Reminds me of those milk ads.... Milk, does the body good!! Not anymore it doesn't......that's a whole other story I will get into later.

WATER... DOES THE BODY GOOD!!......that's more like it.
