Top 5 ways to make water more exciting!!
I want to talk about how the ways we can incorporate more water in our daily routine because most are not a huge fan of water because of its lack of taste. Now there are some who went their childhood without drinking water, so to try and tell someone who's an adult, that we need a certain amount of water a day can seem like torture. We have to remember that we are made up of about 70% water, so we need to make sure our bodies are getting enough water and the best way to do that for newbies is try to make water more exciting!
Now depending on the person's weight will determine the amount of water someone will need, but you can average about 6-8 glasses a day. I know I use to be guilty of not evening getting through one glass a day, and this could contribute to so many things a few examples are headaches, dry skin, your body's ability to detoxify, constipation and so on. Like everything the better something taste the more often you want it and that goes for food and drinks. The most important motivator to make a change is to how essential water is for our bodies and our overall health.
Using fruit in water or frozen fruit as ice cubes can give it a sweet flavor, instead of getting those flavoured waters that have artificial sweeteners.
Teas are a great option they can add flavor and give you a range of different tastes when adding honey or lemon. You could also switch from hot to cold tea depending on your mood.
You could get a app or set a reminder to keep track of your water intake for the day.
BPA free water bottles can help you always have your water reminder by their side and glass or stainless steal are the best options to keep in mind. This can also help you keep track of how much you have drank in a day.
Reward yourself when you hit your goal for the day, now this can play into our inner child which will always be with us. Whether you have a hobby or activities you love, treating yourself with these can increase your motivation for sticking with your water goal.
These tips should help new and old comers to really make a change in their water intake and watch and see how your overall health is impacted in a positive way!
