7 Benefits of Drinking Water

Posted By Quality Home Services

Being dehydrated is not the same as being thirsty. According to the Institute of Medicine, up to 75% of Americans fail to drink at least 10 cups of water a day, which is the recommended daily minimum. Since the substantial part of our body is comprised of water, it’s essential to maintain proper hydration to avoid suffering serious health issues.

The following are 7 advantages of drinking water on a regular basis:

  1. Helps your organs and cells properly function. Whether it’s protecting joints or maintaining adequate digestion, drinking water helps regulate your body’s entire functions.
  2. Benefits your skin. Any body part needs water to adequately function, including the skin. If you have dry, flaky or tight skin, drinking the recommended amount of water can improve those conditions.
  3. Substitute for coffee and energy drinks. Since we don’t drink any water for about 8 hours or so when we sleep, drinking water is the best way to increase your metabolism and kick start your brain, without the temporary burst and caffeine crash of coffee and energy drinks.
  4. Prevents and thwarts sickness. Maintaining proper hydration ensures your immune system is working with high efficiency. When you get sick, your mucous membranes dry out, leaving your throat and nose susceptible to germs. Staying hydrated can help you avoid getting sick more constantly and also hasten your recovery.
  5. Increase your focus. Since your brain is mostly comprised of water, dehydration can lead to a significant decrease in concentration and memory functioning. Headaches and moodiness are also linked to dehydration.
  6. The frugal option. Since water is always the cheapest option in stores and free when you dine out, reducing your soda or juice purchases can help you save a few hundred dollars a year.
  7. The hangover cure. Since alcohol dehydrates your body, drinking plenty of water while and after you’re drinking beer, liquor or wine can prevent and alleviate hangovers. Next time you’re drinking alcohol, consume a glass of water after each alcoholic beverage.
