WATER

WATER HELPS US WORK, REST AND PLAY. AND THAT’S BEFORE WE EVEN CONSIDER ITS BENEFITS TO OUR WELL-BEING

Water is essential to life. We need it to live. Our bodies are 60 percent water, even though we lose 6–10 percent each day – you could lose up to 12 pints running a marathon – hence the need to keep replenishing our supply. Dehydration can cause headaches, lack of energy and loss of concentration, so the old adage about drinking plenty of water should be kept in mind.
