Water, Does the Body Good

Did you know that up to two-thirds of our body weight should be water, and that water makes up 75% of our brains? Taking in enough water every day is essential for optimal health. Water is used for all our metabolic functions, including digestion, absorption of food, temperature regulation, blood circulation, nutrient transport, waste removal, and oxygenation to our cells. It also provides "cushion" for our joints and protection for our organs.

Some symptoms of insufficient hydration include:

Fatigue

Headache

Hypertension

Joint and back pain

Chronic constipation

Weight gain and leaky gut

Elevated cholesterol
