Drinking nothing but water for thirty days causes
your brain to react faster, according to research
published in the Frontiers in Human
Neuroscience Journal. The brain requires oxygen
to function properly and water is a great source
of oxygen. More water means more oxygen
which means more brainpower. Water helps you
to think and focus better. It also makes you
more keen, clever, and a quicker thinker. Drinking
between 8 and 10 cups of water a day has the
potential to improve cognitive ability by up to
30%.

2. YOU AGE SLOWER
Drinking water also slows down the aging
process by hydrating your skin. It’s a way to
keep your skin moisturized, healthy, glowing and,
best of all, free of wrinkles. Water can also help
you retain your muscle tone. The Daily Mail
published an article detailing how a 42 year old
mother looked ten years younger just by drinking
water for 30 days. It began initially when she
started drinking three liters of water a day to
battle her headaches and digestion problems, but
she was genuinely shocked by the results she
saw after just one month. Her headaches and
digestion problems were gone and she was also
able to overcome her chronic dehydration.
3. YOU BOOST YOUR IMMUNE SYSTEM
There is a Slovakian proverb that says that “Pure
water is the world’s first and foremost
medicine.” It’s really true too! Water renews our
bodies and ensures they perform at their peak.
Drinking water boosts the performance of your
liver and kidneys. These are the organs in charge
of removing toxins, waste and salt from your
blood and body.
Some people have a "natural alarm clock"
allowing them to awake when they want.
This is actually caused by a natural stress
hormone.
YOU STRENGTHEN YOUR BONES
Drinking water helps to rebuild cartilage in your
bones. Cartilage is the shock absorber of the
body, ensuring that joints move smoothly and
don’t suffer from any more damage as a result of
tension. There has been a lot of evidence to
support the idea joints are helped by drinking
water.
YOU LOSE WEIGHT
Your body is flushed of harmful toxins and waste
products, especially in the vital organs. This
keeps your body clean and helps get rid of pesky
belly fat. When you start drinking water
consistently you may find you put on a pound or
two in retained water weight while your body
adjusts to the new levels of water consumption.
However water is a great appetite suppressant
that helps you eat less, therefore taking in less
calories, which means you lose weight and keep
the weight off. Water flushes out your system to
cleanse your body and bring down your hunger to
more manageable levels.
YOU BOOST YOUR METABOLISM
Studies have shown that drinking water on a
daily basis boosts your metabolism no matter
what your diet is. The Health Fitness Revolution
suggests drinking 16 ounces of water first thing
in the morning can raise your metabolic rate by
24%!
