Water makes up more than 1/2 our bodies composition and has many more benefit than just quenching our thirst.
My favorite drink is water with lemon. Hydration and detoxification.

Water and water abundant foods tend to aid with weight loss. They take longer to be absorbed and make you feel fuller. Next time you're snacking bored, drink a glass of water first!
A ids with Digestion
Consuming water puts fluid into your colon. Causing things to move much more smoothly throughout your body. Drink water before and after meals.
T emperature Control
Waters high heat capacity allows our bodies to release or absorb heat when we are feeling cold or hot. This is the reason we sweat. Don't forget to replace water loss from sweating.
E nergizes Muscles
Lack of fluids and electrolytes can cause muscles to shrivel and cause muscle fatigue. It is important to hydrate your muscles before, during and after exercise.
R educes Wrinkles
Although over consuming water will not cause all your wrinkles to disappear, it will hydrate your skin. Dry skin is what causes skin to look older, dry, and wrinkled.
Always remember to stay hydrated! If water is too bland for you, you can always infuse it with cucumber, mint, or fruit!
