WATER, WATER EVERYWHERE……….BUT WHAT ARE WE DRINKING?
Do you really understand what is in your water? How much of YOU is water?
Here are a few facts you might not know:
Only 1% of all the water in the world is drinkable. 20% of that is in the Great Lakes that divide part of Canada and the United States. How fortunate we are to live in this area of plentiful water.
70% of each adult is water and our brain is 75% water. That is why we must have water to live.
400 gallons of fluid is filtered thru our kidneys every day.
Our water consumption each day should equal a half ounce per pound of body weight. This is a better guide than the perverbial 8 glasses.
If we don’t get enough water, we can suffer mild depression which in turn effects blood pressure.
BE SURE YOU KNOW WHAT IS IN THE WATER YOU ARE DRINKING! NOT ALL WATER IS AS PURE AS YOU MIGHT THINK IT IS.
