Drinking water is the best way to keep your body sufficiently hydrated to operate optimally. Some people however really do not like drinking water, and that can pose a lot of problems, including dehydration, which can lead to various health problems, including death.
Are you having problems drinking enough water? Do you dislike the taste of tap water; do you think that tap water is unhealthy and full of toxins? Would it make a difference if you knew that drinking water not only increases your energy levels but also helps you to lose weight, look and feel younger and also improves your overall health?
How to Drink More Water
The old 8-by-8 rule of drinking eight 8-ounce glasses of water a day may not be what is recommended any more, but drinking enough water is still very important to your health and well being.
Here are some tips on helping you to drink enough water to keep your body well-hydrated:
- Try various types of water: Drinking tap water may not be to your taste, which is not a bad thing, but don’t give up; try distilled water, spring water, filtered water, or mineral water instead
- Snack on salty nuts: Eating salty snacks will make you thirsty; reach for the water to slake that thirst
- Drink water first thing in the morning: Drinking water in the morning before you do anything else is great as it jump starts your system and purifies the body’s internal system
- Eliminate all other beverages: Removing all other beverages from home for at least a week will encourage you to drink more water and form a water-drinking habit
- Drink lemon water: Squeezing some fresh lemon juice into your drinking water, especially into a glass of warm water in the morning is excellent for your health
- Drink herbal tea: Herbal tea is very healthy and will give you some of your daily requirement of fluids
- Drink water before and after meals: Drinking water before a meal will help suppress your appetite and help you eat less, which will help with your diet. Drinking water after a meal is a good way to round it off
- Invest in a water dispenser: many people find that they drink more water from a water cooler because it tastes better and is always cool and refreshing
Using the above methods to drink more water will definitely help you to stay healthier, younger, and sufficiently hydrated.
Purchase water coolers online and rent water dispensers from Living-Water in London.
