Drink more and more water


We are back to summer and as expected it is recording high temperatures in every state. There are so many reasons why the temperatures are going high and high. Nothing can be solved immediately. So to survive and stay healthy in this summer, the best solution is to hydrate yourself by drinking more and more water.

If you make the habit of drinking more water everyday, it not only helps in summer but helps you to keep healthy for rest of your life. You can see the picture which explains how every part of our body will be benefited by drinking water.

Now a days, Knee pain is the commonly seen disease in elders. By drinking water it will help to create more cushion between joints and you knees will be happy when you walk long or when you sit down. Other benefits are:
  • Better productivity at work as brain is mostly made up of water.
  • Look younger with healthier skin
  • You can avoid cramps
  • Reduce headaches
  • You can lose weight, coz water will help in suppressing your appetite (you gonna eat less) and water has zero calories.
How much water we need to drink? Doctors suggest 3-5 litres of water depending on the nature of work we are doing on that day. If you are doing more physical work(gym, sports etc., are also included) or if you are exposed to sun more, then it is better to consume 5 litres. If you are just staying at home and doing nothing, then 3 litres would be sufficient. One more best tip is to drink sip by sip in regular intervals instead of drinking 1 litre in the morning and night.

The only problem I see in drinking more water is you need to go to Loo more times. Now a days every home, work place, college have access to good toilets. So it won't be a big problem when compare to benefits we get by drinking more water.

If you guys knows any benefits feel free to add them in the comments.
