The Daily Miracles That Water Can Bring To Your Health

Randello M. Braga

You might be wondering or asking if miracles really do happen in our lives, especially when we talk to a friend confessing about his terminal illness or seeing a member of the family suffering from a dreadful illness or disease -whose life already is hanging by a thread. Most of the sickness we suffer today may be traced from two major factors. Primarily, there is the hereditary illness, which can be transmitted from one generation to another by genes and the other one is acquired illness or lifestyle disease which can also be traced from the choice of food that we eat or the preference of liquid that we intake such as alcoholic or non-alcoholic beverages. To shed light on the questions you might be asking about how this article can help us experience the promise being mentioned above, scroll down for the top ten reasons why you should drink water instead of colas or sodas:

It satisfies thirst.

When we are thirsty, our brain is actually sending our body the message to replace the lost body fluids brought about by normal or extreme physical activity just like after doing an exercise routine or performing a strenuous job. This is basically healthy because once you intake water after being thirsty, it will regulate your body fluids and somehow will start giving you comfort after being tired.

Drinking water improves memory or intelligence.

Since our brain is made of cells and tissues that are also dependent on water for hydration, it actually is beneficial for people mostly students to bring along with them a bottle of water before taking a test or a thorough evaluation.

It serves as a therapy for a cough and colds.

When you experience watery eyes, sneezing, or running nose, water may serve as a decongestant. Even though there is no scientific research to guarantee the claim, it will help lower the body temperature of patients with slight fever.

Water aids in proper digestion and bowel movement.

When you have an upset stomach, it’s either there is too much flatulence or air in your stomach or gastric juices are reacting to too much acidic food intake. Water helps reduces acidity level and helps your colon release undesirable toxins and free radicals from your body; thereby helping you move your bowel without the pain or hassle.

It serves as an alternative remedy for joint and muscle pains or spasm.

Dehydration happens when the body loses a significant amount of fluid needed for important muscular functions. By regular and correct intake of drinking water, it somehow lubricates blocked or congested areas of the muscles, giving our blood the chance to flow normally and freeing the muscles or joints from being entangled.

It helps in reducing the effects of too much alcohol intake or intoxication.

After an overnight drinking spree, you normally would have a hangover. Whether you are tipsy or really drunk the night before, a glass of water or two may rehydrate the body in order to stop a severe headache and a weak body.

Water fights over fatigue.

After a very stressful day at work, drinking water helps the body cool down and relaxes the muscles of your body; giving you the chance to regain your appetite and gives you a sleepy head to take a short nap.

It can serve as a performance booster.

Just imagine a simple and common fluid helping you deal with piles of paper works and a dozen deadlines to beat. Not only will you stay healthy but also be on top of the pack for a quick promotion and a salary raise.

Drinking water takes care of our kidneys and their functions.

By drinking eight to ten glasses of water a day, you are actually helping your kidneys function properly in order to eliminate unwanted elements inside your body,  for a healthy renal life.

It serves as a calorie- suppressing agent.

When you actually drink a large amount of water instead of colas or sodas, you will actually feel that your stomach is full, and because of this, you will be discouraged to eat additional food with a lot of calories.
