It isn't new for anyone that water is good for us and essential for our health and wellbeing, but despite knowing how important it is, many of us take it for granted and fail to consume the daily amount required for our bodies.
The benefits of drinking water are many, from health and beauty to weight loss. Here are my top 4 reasons why you should start drinking more water right now:
1) Physical Health: Drinking the right amount of water helps to have a healthy digestive system and kidney function, it also helps to fight infections and flushes toxins, as well as keeping your joints lubricated which improves you movement and flexibility, among many other things.
2) Mental Health: Water can help to prevent memory loss as we get older and reduce the urge of caffeine, alcohol and other addictive substances. It keeps our brain from having to struggle against the effects of dehydration, allowing us to think more clearly.
3) Beauty: If you ask any model what's her secret to beautiful skin, they'll probably say "drink a lot of water". This is because water hydrates skin and makes it look fresh and glowy, it improves the elasticity and diminishes the appearance of wrinkles.
4) Weight Loss: Water helps to boost metabolism which means you'll burn more calories. Being hydrated increases your energy which helps you to work harder and improve your performance. Water is also calorie free, and cold water is calorie-negative, this means that our body will have to work to warm the cold water. Since it gives you that fullness sensation, it is also a great appetite suppressant.
To help you achieve your daily goal (about 2.2L for women), The Big Bottle Co has created this super trendy, BPA AND BPS free bottle of 2.2L. It comes in 12 different colors and finished and I find it super convenient and useful, specially because most of the time I think I'm drinking enough water, but that isn't always the case. It is great to have at your desk and super easy to carry with you if you're going to the gym.
A few days ago I had one of the best yoga sessions ever at HotPod Yoga, it was my first time doing hot yoga, but I really enjoyed, and even though it was really hot, it still was very relaxing, so I'm looking to my next session. After the class we went for a very healthy lunch at one of my favorite restaurants in London, Farmacy, definitely a must try.
