Water...does a body good

In my last post, I started talking about the benefits of drinking water and I said I was going to take my own advise. I have to admit that it is a chore for me to drink water, but I'm trying AND yes, I am spending more time in the bathroom. As a matter of fact, I know where just about every public restroom is located. While I continue to be more mindful of my water consumption, I thought I would include a list of benefits from drinking water.


Why drink pure spring or mineral water? Because water......

• Maintains the structure and function of DNA
• Allows for oxygen to be delivered to the cell
• Is essential for the manufacture of proteins involved in tissue growth and repair
• Enables repair proteins to rebuild the cellular structure
• Acts as a medium for the transport of nutrients
• Cushions bones and joints
• Lubricates joints
• Is vital in the removal of waste products
• Regulates body temperature
• Hydrates cells
• Supports the immune system
• Allows for proper maintenance of the basal metabolic rate
• Assists in eliminating free radicals
• Is an important ingredient in digestive juices
