How much should you drink every day?
Benefits of drinking water:
Water is your
body's principal chemical component, making up, on average, 60 percent of
your body weight. Every system in your body depends on water. For example,
water flushes toxins out of vital organs, carries nutrients to your cells and
provides a moist environment for ear, nose and throat tissues. Lack of water
can lead to dehydration, a condition that occurs when you don't have enough
water in your body to carry out normal functions. Even mild dehydration can
drain your energy and make you tired.
How much water do
you need?
Every day you lose water through your breath,
perspiration, urine and bowel movements. For your body to function properly,
you must consume beverages and foods that contain water. You may need to
modify how much water you drink, depending on how active you are, the climate
you live in or your health condition.
Exercise:If you exercise, practice any sport or are engaged in any activity
that makes you sweat, you need to drink extra water to compensate the water
you lose. It’s also good to drink some drinks that contain sodium, like
Gatorade, Sporade and others.
Environment:Hot or humid
weather can make you sweat, so if you live in a hot city , or in high altitudes ( more than
Illnesses:If you have signs of illnesses, like fever,
infections or other health problems, you need to drink water or even
rehydration solutions.
Follow these advices:
§ Drink water, at least 4 glasses a day, with each
meal and between meals.
§ Eat lots of fruit and vegetables.
§ Hydrate before, during and after exercise.
REMEMBER: It´s one of the best drinks, because it’s free of
calories, inexpensive and it’s available at any time.
