Benefits of Water from Aqua Perfect

Behind soft drinks, bottled water is the most popular consumer beverage in the United States today.  While the old adage of drinking 8 glasses of water a day may not have been based on science (at least no more science than “an apple a day keeps the Dr. away”) Aqua Perfect in Goodlettsville, TN thought we’d provide you with some of the many benefits of drinking water every day.

1.     Maintains balance.  Your body is made up of roughly 70% water.  The water in our body helps with digestion, nutrient absorption (which is why it’s so important to drink lots of water when you’re sick), circulation (human blood is made up of roughly 90% water), saliva, and body temperature.  To put it bluntly, not having enough water means throwing a lot of these systems out of wack.

2.     Controls Body Weight.  Substituting water for high calorie drinks like soda or your Starbucks Frappuccino can really cut down on useless glucose calories.  Drinking plenty of water each day also keeps people from filling up on too much food. 

3.     Gives Energy.  Muscle fatigue is actually a symptom of the cells in our muscles not maintaining a proper balance of fluids.  This is why your brain sends a signal to your mouth when exercising that says “Give me H2O!!”  Most medical journals recommend drinking around 20 oz. of water a couple of hours before you workout to prep your muscles for exercise, then drinking in regular intervals throughout your workout to replace used up fluids.

4.     Clear skin.  The largest single organ in your body is your skin.  And, next to blood, skin has the highest water content of any organ.  Drinking plenty of water reduces the chances of wrinkling, reduces pore size, and gives your skin a natural glow.  On the flip side, dehydrated skin can crack, wrinkle, and break out.  Do the good looks your mother gave you a favor:  DRINK MORE WATER.

5.     Helps kidneys.  The kidneys use excess water to filter your blood and pump toxins out of the body.  If you’re under hydrated, those toxins just sit.  And sit.  And sit.

6.     Helps you go.  You know what we mean.  Water keeps your bowels lubricated and functioning normally.  Keeping hydrated also prevents constipation.

At this point, we’re sure the benefits of drinking plenty of water are clear, but at Aqua Perfect, we’re also here to make sure your water is clean.  We have under the sink water purificatio nsystems, and whole home water purification systems.  Our Hague water filters specialize in water softening, reverse osmosis filtering, water conditioning, and more.  They’re also energy efficient and help to remove hamful agents from your drinking water.
