DESCRIBED AS THE ELIXIR OF LIFE, WATER KEEPS YOUR CIRCULATION IN TOP CONDITION
AND IS THE KEY TO HEALTHY, YOUTHFUL SKIN. BUT ARE YOU GETTING YOUR DAILY QUOTA?
Y
our body is made
up of around 70%
water, and it is also
a major component
of your blood. This
means that water
is literally flowing around your body
all of the time: its function is to help
carry essential nutrients to different
parts of the body and help flush away
waste products through the kidneys.
Water also plays a vital role in
helping you to absorb vitamins and
minerals from food, and speeds up
the rate at which you absorb glucose,
giving you more energy. Once you
realise the degree to which water

helps maintain effective functioning
of your vital internal organs, it’s
easier to understand why humans
die very quickly when deprived of
this chemical compound (you can
last much longer without food).
Other benefits of drinking lots of
pure water are that you have much
more energy, feel calmer and are less
likely to overeat. If you’re prone to
bloating, or are trying to lose a few
pounds or slip into a little-too-tight
waistband, it’s a common mistake to
think that cutting back on water will
help. In fact, when your body thinks
there is a danger of its water supply
drying up, it will make every effort
to store water – which can lead to a
bloated feeling. By regularly topping
up your water levels throughout the
day, you’ll encourage your body to
release more water. So, try and sip
a fresh glass of water every hour!
Water also assists your internal
organs in the body’s fat-burning
process, and a continuous fresh supply
is vital for this to be done efficiently.
Another boost for dieters is that
water, which is calorie-free, can help
fill you up and reduce your appetite,
making you less likely to reach for
high-fat snacks like chocolate and
crisps to keep you satisfied. So, if
you want to lose weight, drink more!
