 We’ve all heard that you’re supposed to drink 8 glasses of water a day at 8 ounces each - so 64 ounces. That’s fine if you weigh 128 pounds. To figure up how much water you should be drinking, simply take your body weight and divide it in half. That’s how many ounces of water you need in a day. That being said, here are six reasons why it’s so important to get all those ounces in.
• Fluid Balance Simply put, water helps keep all your cells hydrated to perform their functions. Roughly 60% of your body’s composition is water so not having enough of it causes everything in your day to suffer. Headaches, joint pain, and trouble thinking are all things that may be helped by proper hydration. • Digestion Water will help keep you regular by dissolving fats and soluble fiber. It also helps the kidneys and liver to perform their jobs of flushing waste. • Thirst Disguised as Hunger Thirst is often mistaken as hunger, and more food is then consumed when really all you needed was more water. If you feel the urge to grab a snack, try some water first. If the hunger persists then you can take care of it. • It Could Aid in Weight Loss Studies have shown that those who drank water before a meal lose weight faster than those that don’t. The water makes you feel full faster and also aids in speeding up your metabolism to keep things moving. • Clearer Skin Staying hydrated can help your skin look brighter and cleaner by allowing cell regeneration to take place. Sweating is another way the body flushes waste from the body and if you’re dehydrated you can’t sweat properly. This can lead to clogged pores and ducts with lead to breakouts. • Muscle Fatigue Just like all those other cells we mentioned, muscles need water to function properly too. Not keeping up on your water consumption will lead to poor performance and tiring out quickly.

I like that you said that you could properly digest your consumed food by drinking a sufficient amount of water. The other day, my brother informed me that he hoped to find a potable water solution to provide proper protection and safety for their home water supply. He asked if I had thoughts on the best option to achieve safe water. I value your helpful potable water article, I'll tell him it will be much better if he consults a trusted potable water service for more details about the process. 4/10/2023 03:21:41 pm
We spend a lot of money on bottled water, so we're interested in knowing if our house's water is safe to drink. We liked what you explained about how drinking water helps our cells perform our functions, so this is another reason for us to get our water tested this week. Thanks for the advice on keeping ourselves hydrated. 6/1/2023 07:37:16 pm
Pumping eliminates sludge and scum formation, which reduces bacterial activity in the tank. Depending on the size of your tank and how much trash you send through the system, it's possible for your tank to last two or three years without needing to be pumped. Request a general advice from your inspector regarding how frequently your tank has to be pumped. 2/7/2024 12:08:17 am
