Make sure you drink at least 8 - 8 oz. glasses of water per day. The rule of thumb is, for every 50 pounds of body weight you carry, drink one litre of bottled (spring or filtered) water per day.
Water helps in:
· Lubricating and cushioning your joints
· Removing toxins from your body as you heal
· Aiding in your circulation
· Helping control your body's temperature
· Keeping your skin healthy
Our bodies are mostly water, and so this ongoing intake of water is essential to our every function. Drink the appropriate amounts, and everything will function at optimal levels. Don't drink enough water, and over the short term you will experience routine fatigue, dry skin, headaches and constipation; over the longer term, every body function will degrade more quickly.
Drink water at room temperature, if possible, as ice-cold water can harm the delicate lining of your stomach.
