Why is drinking water so important?

Whilst we all hear the message that we need to drink plenty of water every day, the reasons why aren’t shouted about quite so loud!

Here are 8 great reasons why you should keep those hydration levels topped up on a daily basis:

• As 60-80% of the human body is made up of water, making sure you stay fully hydrated is crucial in ensuring your body is functioning optimally.
• Not only does keeping your fluid levels topped up help to maintain your body’s temperature, drinking ice cold water is proven to help speed up your metabolism – making it a really easy way to increase your daily calorie burn!
• When you’re feeling dehydrated, the first way your body signals this is through headaches. Drinking plenty of water will help keep those headaches at bay and help you feel great!
• Water is proven to improve skin elasticity, meaning it helps to keep your skin looking smooth and reduces the chances of having stretch marks & creases.
• Does sitting at your desk all day cause your feet and ankles to swell? This isn’t only a problem for pregnant women, but for anyone sitting for long periods of time. Drinking water helps with your circulation and keeps everything moving round your body as it should.
• Water normalises digestion – all the processes that your body undertakes to complete digestion cannot be done without water.
• It can help with allergies and asthma – When dehydrated, airways are restricted by the body in an effort to minimize water loss, making allergy and asthma symptoms much worse.
• Researchhas shown that even mild dehydration may impair memory and mood in everyone from children to the elderly. Hydration impacts the brain, as well as the body, and research has shown that even mild dehydration may have a negative impact on moods and may heighten anxiety.

These are just 8 of the many reasons why we should make sure we’re getting enough water! Making simple changes to ensure you’re hydrated can have a huge impact on your day to day life.

Benefits of drinking water & staying hydrated

Keeping ourselves hydrated throughout the day is essential to maintaining our health and with over 60% of our body being made up of water, it is crucially needed in order to function optimally.

Guidelines unofficially recommend that we aim to drink 8 glasses of water a day, so here are our top 3 reasons for you to keep drinking:

1. Help prevents headaches & migraines

Dehydration is a known trigger of migraines and has been proven in studies to be the cause of headaches in up to 40% of cases. Keeping on top of your hydration goals can help you keep debilitating headaches at bay and leave you to get on with your day.

2. Helps optimise your physical performance.

Not keeping on top of your water levels can mean that when you start your exercise, not only will your core temperature rise faster but your heart will have to work harder to keep up. Making sure you’re drinking plenty of water will not only help you to perform the best you can but will make sure you feel great long after your workout has finished.

3. Helps with weight loss

Making sure you drink plenty of water can be a key factor in aiding weight loss. Not only does it increase satiety but it has been proven to boost your metabolic rate. Studies have also shown that drinking a glass of water up to 30 minutes before eating a meal can lead to you eating less during your meal.

Don’t take our word that water is the best drink for your health, here is what the NHS says:

• Your body needs water or other fluids to work properly and to avoid dehydration.
• Water makes up about two-thirds of the weight of a healthy body.
• Most of the chemical reactions that happen in our cells need water in order to take place. We also need water so that our blood can carry nutrients around the body and get rid of waste.
• However, we lose water all the time, through evaporation when we breathe, sweat and in our urine. If the temperature rises or we do more activity, this increases the amount of water we lose.
• To stay healthy, it is important to replace the water we lose.
