Have you ever noticed your skin is dull when you have not had water the whole day or even for some hours. Yes, not drinking water, even for some hours, affects our body functions adversely. Our body is made 70% of water and the cells need water for every reaction they want to carry on. Thus, water is an essential ingredient.
Your face flakes off in whole pieces, your arms are ashy, and your skin constantly itches in your clothes. Meanwhile, you still have that zit that’s been making appearances on your chin since summertime. So don’t allow yourself to have excuses. What you need to do is to consume at least 6 glasses of water per day. Here's how you can reach the target easily.
1) Carry a water bottle everywhere
Having a bottle of water in your handbag, car, back-pack and placed beside the bed can increase water consumption; it also enables you to keep a track of how much you're drinking.
2) Add fruit slices to water bottles for a refreshing taste
Make calorie free flavored water in advance to have on hand when you are thirsty and want something more than plain water. Add a bit of lemon/lime juice or a few slices of your favorite fruit.
3) Swap morning cups of tea
Swap morning cups of tea to hot water with freshly squeezed orange, rich in Vitamin C , giving you a tasty pick-me-up. Develop a habit of being a “two-fisted” drinker–one tea and a glass of water.
4) Set reminders
Put a big sign on your refrigerator. DRINK MORE WATER. Every time you'll head to kitchen to make lunch, breakfast or dinner, this reminder will push you to have a tall glass of water.
5) Add colourful straws to water bottles
You're likely to sip more when using a straw than just sipping water. And because colourful straws are fun.
6) Download water reminder apps
The development of technology has delivered an ideal solution to this issue. In fact, plenty of mobile apps are now available, which help people to stick to the recommended amount of water that they should consume on a daily basis. You can also set a reminder on your phone or email account to encourage water intake throughout the day.
