I don’t know about you, but I know I don’t drink enough water. I exercise and I still don’t think I drink enough. So, I asked the experts at Essentia Water to provide me with some tips on staying hydrated. Here’s what they said:
- Start each day with a glass of water.
- Sip water throughout the day. By doing this, you will eliminate dehydration.
- Where ever you go, no matter where your travels take you, bring a bottle of water with you.
- Commit to drinking a certain amount of water each day (based on body weight – according to the Mayo Clinic, the men should drink 13 cups and women should drink 9 cups.
- If you’re hungry, have a glass of water. Hunger is “often mistaken for a lack of enough water.”
So what is Alkaline water and why is it useful?
According to Essentia Water, Alkaline water helps:
- neutralize acid in the bloodstream, which leads to increased oxygen levels and improved energy and metabolism.
- anti-aging and anti-disease because of the antioxidan t properties.
- cleanse your colon.
- helps with acid reflux.
- lubricates muscles and joints.
When I asked the company representatives what makes them different than any other alkaline water, they said they are “ionized, which means that most alkaline water have added mineral properties while they are actually completely ionized and non-acidic.”
The thing for me about Essentia Water as opposed to other brands is that it tastes good. And, if it tastes good, I’m going to drink it more often.
