Not only human cells, but also all plant cells mostly consist of water.
The adult human body consists of up to 60% water, it is vital that we drink enough water every day. Not just for a good skin, of course, but because our body needs water to function properly. Water keeps our cells – every single one of them – in shape. Just as for any other cell type, this applies to the skin cells. Simply put: If you do not drink enough water, your skin will become drier and tighter. Dryness promotes wrinkling of the skin, which makes your skin look older eventually. Lack of water does not only make you look older but can also make you feel more tired and weary.

The Natural Energy Drink

Feeling grumpy and disoriented during the day? The reason might as well be dehydration! It is proven, that enough water benefits your brain activity and therefore, improves your focus. Even the loss of a small percentage of body water can lead to headaches and lack of concentration. Enough water can make you feel better and is proven to boost your energy level. Mostly, people tend to drink caffeine when feeling tired. Unfortunately, caffeine dehydrates the body, so you should try to keep your caffeine consumption within bounds.  While coffee or similar drinks may keep you awake for a short time, water will improve the overall functioning of your body in the long term.

Detox Your Body

Water is essential for various parts of our body. It transports important nutrients to where they are required. One of the most important functions, however, is to flush out toxins from the body. Our main detoxifying organ is the kidney. It is like a filter, which cleanses large amounts of our blood each day and filters out toxins. The proper functioning of the kidney depends on the amount of water we drink every day. Water is absolutely essential for this vital organ to function.

When Life Gives you Lemons…

…add them to your water! One of Nazan’s morning habits is drinking lemon water each and every morning. Lemons are known for their high amount of Vitamin C. They have strong antibacterial and antiviral properties and a boosting effect on your immune system. The electrolytes contained in lemons balance the pH value of the blood, help your muscles function properly, improve brain function and many more. Lemon water helps detoxify your body and is good against colds – so it is especially useful during wintertime. It is even more effective, if the lemon water is warm and if you drink it on an empty stomach in the morning.

Conclusion: Drink at least two liters of water per day, beauties! And in the morning, add some lemon juice to it. It will make you feel rejuvenated, happy and energized. Plus, it detoxifies your body! If you often forget to drink enough water, set an alarm to remind you of doing so, or get a water bottle you always carry with yourself.

Stay healthy, beauties! <3
