Water Benefits For Skin

Often we mistake hunger with thirst and staying properly hydrated helps save on calories throughout the day, so we eat when we are actually hungry. It also helps control cravings.

As part of my fitness regimen I have always drank a lot of water through the day to replenish what I have lost through exercise and for its overall benefits. I’m so used to drinking a lot of water, I feel weird when I don’t, I love water.
Don’t like the taste of water? Infuse your water with fruit such as oranges, strawberries, blueberries. Adding lemon or mint to your water also can help make it tasty.
