Why Is Water Important To Drink?

keeps skin looking great. If your skin looks tired and unhealthy, so do you. Staying properly hydrated removes all the toxins that build up in you skin, and helps prevent it from drying out. If you have the opposite problem; puffy bloated skin, lack of water is likely your problem too. When skin doesn’t get water, it retains what it already had, leaving your skin cells full, puffy, and not too attractive. If you want to look beautiful, you should keep yourself hydrated

  • It’s cheaper. Sure, if you buy bottled water, it’s about as expensive as soda, juice, and coffee. However, studies have shown that tap water is usually as clean and safe as bottled water, and costs a whole lot less. If you have a problem with the taste of your tap water, buy a filter pitcher or one that attaches to the faucet. It still costs a lot less.
  • A healthy heart. When you’re properly hydrated, your blood is thinner and easier to pump. This means your heart has to do less work and ultimately lasts longer. Studies have shown that people who drink plenty of water have fewer heart problems.
  • Toxic build-up. Sure, it sound’s like something from a bathroom cleaner commercial, but you have toxins in your cells too. Some come from the environment and others you produce yourself. Either way, they’re in your body and you need to get rid of them. Just like you use water to flush your toilet; your body uses water to flush out toxins. Getting rid of this waste helps you function more effectively and feel better.
  • No sugar added. While fruit juices may contain many nutrients, they also contain a whole lot of sugar. This is especially true for many bottled juices from the grocery store. This sudden burst of sugar triggers your insulin response and makes you tired and sluggish. It also helps to convert that sugar to fats faster. Sugary sodas will produce the same reaction and they usually contain no nutrients at all
  • Caffeine is a diuretic. So why water? Why not drink diet soda or coffee all day? These drinks contain caffeine, which actually causes you to lose water throughout the day. You retain some of the water content of the beverages, but not as much as when you drink pure water. You can try decaffeinated beverages, but the best way to use the water you drink is to get it pure and clean, with no chemicals added.
  • Energy Boost. Think you can’t get through the day without your morning caffeine boost? Well water can give you energy as well. Your body is made up mostly of water. It loses it throughout the day, so you have to replace it for your body to work efficiently; particularly the heart and digestive tract. As mentioned earlier, water helps your body work better by getting rid of excess waste. The more efficiently your whole body is works, the better you’ll feel and the more energy you’ll have. Maybe enough energy to skip that cup of coffee.

So go ahead, skip the vending machine, go to the faucet, and get yourself a nice, refreshing glass of water.

Harmful Coca-Cola ?

Why is Coca-Cola (and other Soft Drink) so bad for you? What does it do to your body exactly?

Coca Cola Killer

Coca Cola Killer

Colas also contain ethylene glycol, which is used in anti-freeze.   Ethylene glycol is a slow poison, it won’t kill you if you have it in small quantities but it will kill you in large quantities.  That doesn’t mean the small quantities are totally harmless however, your body has to work hard to protect itself from various poisons, and these battles often leave scars.  The more scars on any given organ, the weaker it is and the less likely it is to function in old age.

Coca-Cola per say is not worse than any other type of cola, like Pepsi, or generic brands.  It’s also not that much worse than root beer, or other candy like soft drinks.  I say it’s like candy because colas are full of sugar.  Diet colas are also not very good for you due to their Aspartame content although they are probably better than regular colas.

I’ll begin with diet soft drinks.  Aspartame is the common ingredient in all fake sugar, Equal, NutraSweet, Spoonful, etc….  For the most part Aspartame isn’t going to hurt you if you have the occasional diet soft drink.  However people have had some pretty scary symptoms after drinking Aspartame such as: seizures, breathing difficulties, memory loss, nausea, headaches, and a host of other symptoms.   Aspartame can trigger some chronic illnesses as well like: brain tumors, Parkinson’s, Diabetes, Multiple Sclerosis, and Epilepsy.   I won’t get into too much detail on why Aspartame is damaging, but basically Aspartame can build up calcium in certain neurons on your brain, making if difficult for your brain to send messages to various parts of your body via these neurons.  The neurons die due to over stimulation.
All that and it was just diet colas, now lets move on to regular colas.  Sugar is a significant ingredient that will harm you.  Massive amounts of sugar in anything will cause bodily harm.  Aside from bringing on Diabetes, excess amounts of sugar will increase your body weight, which makes your body work harder just to function daily.  This added stress is hard on most of your organs.
The last major reason cola’s are bad for you is the extremely high acidity.  The pH for colas is around 3.4, strong enough to dissolve teeth and bones.  The acid is also due to high mineral contents, and guys, high mineral intake can lead to, *gulp*, kidney stones.  Not to mention that the high acid level is the main cause of tooth decay.  That’s right it’s not the sugar in coke that will cause cavities it’s the high acidity.
