Health Tips - Body Anxious Without Water
Bodies can have minor meltdowns of their own if they don't have the fuel that they need to operate. Water is one of those crucial fuels.
How Much Water Should You Drink?
Divide your weight in pounds by 2. That figure is the minimum ounces per day that your body needs. For example, if you weigh 128 pounds, divide 128 by 2. This means that you should drink 64 ounces or 2 quarts of water per day.
The longer you keep this as your operating basis, the more your mental clarity and other body functions will improve.
It is important to find a source of water you love. Fill up a 2 quart glass pitcher with anything that makes water tasty for you - mint leaves, lemon juice and stevia etc. or you can carry this with you in an empty glass bottle such as a Perrier bottle.
