Don't
wait until you are actually thirsty |
| |
The
problem with water intake and thirst is that the thirst mechanism
doesn't kick in until you've lost about 2-3 percent of your
body weight, which is not really good for your body metabolism. |

|
Drink
plenty of water throughout the day |
| |
Whether
you are commuting, working at office or enjoying a holiday,
always carry a bottle of water with you. While at office, try
keeping a water bottle on your desk and take water breaks instead
of those coffee breaks. |

|
|
Don't
substitute water with coffee or aerated drinks |
| |
Coffee,
soft drinks and alcohol act as diuretic beverages, which means
they cause dehydration through increased urination. |
|
| |
|
| |
|
|
Drink
water even while exercising |
| |
Don't
under estimate the amount of fluids lost from perspiration.
Keep a bottle of water with you while working out and take frequent
water breaks. Your body cells need every bit of water to stay
in shape. |

|
|
Start
and end your day with water |
| |
Your
body loses water even while you sleep, so drink some water before
going to bed and again some when you wake up. It works. |
