Better Drinking Habits

The human body is 70% water, the brain is 85% water, blood is 90% water, the human liver, one of our most vital organs, is 96% water! It's a logical assumption that the quality of the water we drink will have a very significant effect on our overall health.
We are exposed to far more toxins than ever before; our water is literally a chemical soup, EPA records show that so far more than 2,100 cancer-causing chemicals have been detected in U.S. water supplies. There are over 80,000 toxic chemicals currently used in America and over 1,000 new ones being developed every year, and for most of these chemicals, we don't know the long-term risks of exposure, or the effects of combined exposure. What happens when we get 10 or 20 or 50 traces of different synthetic chemicals together in the same glass of water? Unfortunately, we're learning more and more every day the hard way.
What to do?The first step is train you to drink more water, and there are a lot of good ways to do that. Use a bigger glass: instead of the old rule of eight 8-ounce glasses a day, drink eight 12-ounce glasses a day. The old rule of eight 8-ounce glasses a day for 64 ounces total was first published in medical journals 70 years ago before we had the level of exposure that we have today before we had pesticide residue on our foods and traces of thousands of synthetic chemicals in our water and air. Our bodies will use 64 ounces of water just for the basics each day: temperature control, skin hydration, digestion, energy production. In order for our bodies to be able to detox, to flush out the toxins that make their way in, we have to drink more water than that minimum level and the more we drink, the more we allow our bodies to purify themselves. Drink 10-12 glasses a day at a minimum! Store your water in glass it looks better, it tastes better and it's better for you, and you'll naturally drink more!
Increasing the quantity and quality of the water we drink is probably one of the most important health enhancement steps we can make!
