The Benefits of Water for the body & mind


We hear a lot about the benefits of drinking water but do we really know just how amazing it is. Read on to learn more about what water can do for your mind and body.


Help to keep a healthy body weight

Are you wanting to lose weight or are you on a healthy eating program, then pay attention! When people drink enough water, they will effectively be able to assist the regulation of their appetite, as we often mistake hunger for thirst. When the body is getting plenty of water, our metabolism functions at its optimal level, helping to maintain a healthy body weight.

Better energy levels

We’ve all experienced a mid-afternoon slump. When you feel like you are yawning every two minutes, and it is not because you had a late night. It is more likely that you are suffering from a mild form of dehydration. So, before you reach for that extra cuppa, try having a glass or two of water to help you feel more alert and awake.

Maintaining healthy bones

Our bodies are made up of a large percentage of water, but did you know that your bones are actually made up of 50% of water? In order to make new bone cells and continue maintaining healthy bone levels, you need to drink enough water to help the bones continue to produce new bone cells. This is definitely one of the best reasons to drink water.

Getting rid of toxins

Water is brilliant at flushing toxins from the lymphatic system, kidneys and intestines. By keeping your system flushed, you will not suffer from the uncomfortable symptoms of a clogged lymphatic system, which can include fatigue and other health problems. Help your liver and kidneys do their jobs by giving them enough fluid to keep your body functioning at its most optimum level.

Better brain function

In order for your brain to function properly, and have effective electrical functioning, your brain needs the right amount of water. It is estimated that the human brain gives off the same amount of electricity that a 60 watt light bulb does, and imagine how difficult it must be to get all that work done without enough fuel? Giving your brain enough water is another motivating factor to drink more water.

Blemish free skin

Everybody wants a glowing and healthy skin, free of blemishes and blackheads. One of the most important benefits of water is for your skin. Water helps to flush out the toxins and keep your skin looking fresh and healthy every day.
