How Much Water Do I Need???

One of my regular clients recently asked me how much water he
should be drinking on a daily basis. As a general guideline, an
individual should be drinking 0.5 oz of water for every pound that
he/she weighs. Please keep in mind that if you are drinking coffee,
sodas, or other drinks that will contribute to dehydration; or if you are
active (strength training, sporting activities etc) you will need to
increase your water intake.
Water is essential in aiding us in many different facets
• Weight loss
• Joint lubrication
• Proper digestion
• Aids in flushing toxins out of the body
• Regulates body temperature
Your body is comprised of 60% water…make sure you are
replenishing what you are losing!
