Water Required!

Do you know the importance of drinking water?

WATER is an important part of life and living healthy. It is an essential nutrient and water deprivation kills faster than the lack of any other nutrient. Individuals who drink WATER are more likely to have a lower calorie intake and have a healthier diet pattern including fruit, vegetables and low-fat milk. Water also helps the body function properly by maintaining muscle tone and lubricating joints, helping to reduce muscle fatigue and soreness during exercise.

Tips to Increase Water Intake: Drink a glass of water with each meal and between meals.


 Hydrate before, during and after exercise.


 Eat more fruits and vegetables.


 Substitute sparkling water for alcoholic drinks.


 Add a bit of lemon or lime for a touch of flavor.


 Have a water bottle handy


*If you drink water from a reusable bottle, thoroughly clean or replace the bottle often.
