Are YOU Drinking Enough H20?

For all my people making healthy changes this year: Drink 1/2 ounce (of water) per pound of body weight if you're not active or 2/3 ounces per pound if you're athletic. Call it the "2012 Water Vow." Do it every day to increase your chances of weight loss, relieve your low back pain and mental irritation, and overall well being.

Example: Calculation for 200lbs
Non-athletes: 200/2=100 --> 100/8 =12.5 cups of water.
athletes: 200 x .666 = 133.2oz --> 133.2/8= 16.65 cups of water
  

  
H20 Duties within our Bodies:

  • Regulates Body Temperature.
  • Composes 75% of Brain.
  • Helps carry Nutrients and Oxygen to cells.
  • Moistens Oxygen for Breathing.
  • Helps Convert Food into Energy.
  • Protects and Cushions Vital Organs.
  • Helps Body Absorb Nutrients.
  • Makes up 75% of Muscles.
  • Cushions Joints.
  • Accounts for 22% of Bones.
  • Removes Waste.
