Water!!!

Did you know that about 80 percent of your body is water. Every cell in your body needs water to survive and thrive. Water assists the body in excreting waste products out of your body. If your fluid levels are too low or polluted, some of the waste products will be trapped in your cells and damage will occur. This is what causes disease. You need to have healthy cells to have a healthy body.

Think about what you put into your body - into your cells. Are giving your body the water it needs to thrive or are you depriving it of the water it needs to be healthy?  Are you drinking enough pure water? Pure water, not liquids like coffee, soda, tea - just pure water. You should be drinking half our your body weight in ounces a day. So, if you weigh 150 pounds you should be drinking at least 75 ounces of pure water a day. That is at about 10 cups of water a day. Also, are you eating water rich foods? Like fruits and vegetables? Watermelon is 94% water and filled with micro-nutrients, Broccoli is 91% water. While white sugar only has a trace of water and soda cracker only 4%. You get the idea  - processed food has very little water content, very little or no micro-nutrients. So, the moral here is drink your water! And, eat real whole living water and micro-nutrient filled whole foods - vegetables and fruits! And, cut out the processed crap!
