The recommended starting point for water intake is 2 litres a

day for an adult. This accounts for water loss through natural

processes like urination, perspiring and sweating. However,

other factors need to be taken into account as the ideal daily

intake of water is different for each individual. Take these

factors into account:

• Activity level – active people lose more water.

• Body mass – the bigger you are the more water you

need to function at an optimal level.

• Environment – if you work or live in a hot climate you

will lose more water through sweating.

Remember: A mere 1% loss in bodily fluids starts to neg-

atively affect cognitive function. Keep your brain hydrated to

improve focus, concentration and productivity.

Our bodies lose water exercising, but just drinking more water

after a workout won’t keep you hydrated. To maintain your

hydration level:

1. Drink 2 glasses of water prior to working out.2. Drink 1 glass 15 minutes before commencing. 3. Drink the equivalent of a glass of water every 15

minutes during your workout; more if you are in a hot environment.

Did you know: Alkaline water as opposed to spring or tap

water helps reduce the effects of lactic acid build up after

your workout? Most spring water is acidic and tap water

contains chemicals that add a toxic burden on your body.

There are certain times during the day when drinking water is better for you.

DO:1. Drink 2-3 glasses upon wakening to help flush toxins and get

your organs ready to take in food. 2. Drink water before you eat. Drinking water with or straight after

your meal dilutes important digestive fluids that need to be acidic. Wait an hour after a meal before resuming.

3. We lose fluids when we sleep so drink one glass of water before going to bed.

4. Drink water before, during and after exercise. 5. Drinking water before a massage or bath to help your body

release toxins and lower your blood pressure. 6. Sip water throughout the day to help you maintain clarity and

focus.

DON’T:1. Drink during or immediately after meals.2. Wait until you are thirsty. You are already dehydrated by then!

Bad news for those that love their water icy cold. Drinking

cold water is not the quickest way to hydrate because it

shocks your body. It takes longer for your body to absorb cold

water because it has to expend energy to adjust the water to

body temperature first.

On the other hand drinking hot water has a tendency to

cause your pH levels to slightly drop however this is minor so

you can still enjoy your tea.

Ideally to maintain optimum pH levels in your body and for

quicker hydration it is best to drink alkaline water at room

temperature.

Are you worried about the potential negative effects from

bottled Water? You are safe if the plastic bottles of the water

you buy are BPA and phthalate free. If you want to be extra

safe, store your water away from sunlight.

Is Carbonated Water Okay to Drink?

Moderation is the key with carbonated water – it is certainly a

good step away from soft drinks and sugary fruit juices but it

has some negatives as well.

• Carbonated water contains high levels of carbon dioxide

and carbonic acid that make your body more acidic. In

the process of working to neutralise acid, our body will

leach calcium and other necessary minerals from our

bones. Long term, this can mean a lower density which

can cause many health issues, especially when we age.

• Carbonated water is harder for our kidneys to process.

When you are feeling unwell, it is vital to increase your water

intake. Drinking water helps you recover and stop you from

getting worse, especially if you have excessive sweating,

vomiting or diarrhoea. Here are some ways water can aid in

healing:

1. Reducing fever – preventing dehydration by drinking

ample water.

2. Reduces secretions – a hydrated body can stop thick

secretions from forming and make them easier to expel,

such as when you have a cold.

3. Rehydrating – it is easy to become dehydrated when

you are ill especially when you have diarrhoea.
