IMPORTANCE OF WATER

Almost all of us know we need to drink 8 to 10 glasses of water a day, even though many of us don't do it!  But do you know why?  How about this?  The experts say water is second only to oxygen as essential to life itself!  Is that reason enough for you? No, you want more reasons?  Check the bullets below.

• Water decreases the risk of colon cancer by 45%.
• A lack of water is one of the most common causes of daytime fatigue!
• Water reduces fat deposits in the body. 
• Water helps maintain proper muscle tone.
• Water reduces the risk of bladder cancer by 50%.

The above bullets are just a few of the ways water is helpful to the body.

One thing we should do that most people say they don't even think of doing is to drink at least one glass of water right after getting up in the morning.  Remember we aren't talking about a 16-oz glass.  A glass that holds a cup of water counts as a glass.

Do your body a big favor and drink plenty of water!
