Water is by far the most important resource in the world, yet it garners the respect of so few. How often do you find yourself standing with the fridge door open looking for something to drink – completely ignoring your jug of filtered water that sits before your eyes? The truth is, water should always be the beverage of choice. While the human body can go about 3 weeks without food, it cannot survive for more than 3 days without water. Water is essential to every bodily function. No other liquid can sustain your body like water, and the body needs a certain amount of water to function well. About 80% of the human brain is water, blood contains 83% water, the lungs 79% and muscles 76%. All in all, the human body is comprised of about 75% water. Every function in the body is dependent on a steady supply and flow of water. Water transports such things as hormones, chemicals and nutrients which are vital to efficient organ function. Without water we would not be able to digest or absorb minerals or nutrients and our kidneys would fail from toxic overload. Water is, in fact, a sort of miracle elixir – but have you ever thought of it that way? Here are just a few of the amazing things that water can do for your health: keep skin vibrant and supple escort toxins from the body support healthy metabolism improve energy remove body heat lubricate joints improve mental and physical performance support digestion But hold on… we are just getting started. Water, yes, simple, plain old water, the same water that you might bypass for something more glamourous… not only sustains life but holds within it the capacity to heal. Here are sixteen illnesses that water can help prevent and reverse. We hope that after reading this article you will be convinced that water should ALWAYS be your first beverage of choice. Arthritis It is estimated that over 52 million adults in the United States have some form of arthritis – which literally means “joint inflammation”. The pain and discomfort of this condition varies from a minor inconvenience to a full-blown disability. Millions of dollars are spent on anti-inflammatory and pain medications that often have harsh side effects. Persons suffering from arthritis are often subjected to a life sentence to these harsh drugs, but there may be a better way. The most important thing that someone with arthritis can do is to make sure that their joints are lubricated, and water can do this. Water not only lubricates but also pads joints and reduces the friction that causes pain. A suction-like motion pulls water from bone marrow to the joint cavity; this helps joints glide easily. If there is not enough water available it causes friction and eventually pain. If you are severely dehydrated, dry cartilage can die and peel off from the contact surface of the bones.

Manchester United can become the first Premier League club to score 2000 points in the history of the Premier League. They were 48 points off the total ahead of the start of 2016-17. Philipp Lahm (481) can reach the 500 appearance mark for Bayern Munich. Cristiano Ronaldo (93) can become the first player to score 100 Champions League/European Cup goals. Everton midfielder Gareth Barry (595) would surpass Ryan Giggs (632) in the Premier League’s all-time appearance ranking if he plays every game this season. Francesco Totti (248) can reach the 250-goal mark in Serie A. Only Silvio Piola (274) has scored more times in the Italian top flight. Wayne Rooney (245) is just four goals away from equalling Manchester United’s all-time goal record currently held by club legend Sir Bobby Charlton (249). Real Madrid (6) share the record for consecutive Champions League semi-finals with Barcelona but can go outright top if they reach that stage again. Lionel Messi (456) could become the first Barcelona player to score 500 goals for the club in competitive matches. more @http://eplfanz..com.ng/ |

Gout Gout, being a form of arthritis, is also markedly improved if not completed kept at bay with a proper consumption of water. Water helps to remove uric acid and other toxins from joints that build-up causing swelling and pain. Osteoporosis This painful condition is characterized by low bone mass and a structural breaking down of bone tissue. Over 10 million Americans suffer from osteoporosis and over 34 million have low bone mass – a precursor to this disease. Although there are certain risk factors that are out of our control, such as race and gender, there is much that we can control – such as how much water we consume. Water not only helps prevent this condition but it can also help sufferers cope. Heart Disease Often called the silent killer, taking the lives of almost 2,200 people daily – yes, we said daily. Heart disease is rampant and we seem to be able to do little to control it. However, it appears as though there is a strong relationship between water and coronary health. One study demonstrated that drinking 5 or more glasses of water per day can cut the risk of dying from a heart attack by 50%. Study leaders say that drinking water is as important as exercising, not smoking and diet in preventing heart disease.

Did you know that drinking water could be a lifesaver? Pure, clean drinking water does so much to keep your body running smoothly. Find out how to staying hydrated helps protect your health… Want to drink more water to benefit your health? Here are 6 times your body needs drinking water most. 1. Drink Water When You First Get Up Imagine starting your car in sub-zero temperatures and putting it into gear without waiting for the engine to warm up. That’s a disaster waiting to happen. The same is true of the human body. Without water to wake up and turn on the body in the morning, you may be running on empty, especially if you skip breakfast. A glass of cool water right after you wake up tells your body that it’s time to get going. Like a gently flowing stream that pushes along debris and rocks, your circulatory system needs fluid to get rid of stubborn free radicals and residue from burned calories used during the night’s metabolism. more @ http://www.waterheals.top/ |

Roughly 70 percent of an adult’s body is made up of water. At birth, water accounts for approximately 80 percent of an infant’s body weight. A healthy person can drink about three gallons (48 cups) of water per day. Drinking too much water too quickly can lead to water intoxication. Water intoxication occurs when water dilutes the sodium level in the bloodstream and causes an imbalance of water in the brain. Water intoxication is most likely to occur during periods of intense athletic performance. While the daily recommended amount of water is eight cups per day, not all of this water must be consumed in the liquid form. Nearly every food or drink item provides some water to the body. Soft drinks, coffee, and tea, while made up almost entirely of water, also contain caffeine. Caffeine can act as a mild diuretic, preventing water from traveling to necessary locations in the body. Pure water (solely hydrogen and oxygen atoms) has a neutral pH of 7, which is neither acidic nor basic. Water dissolves more substances than any other liquid. Wherever it travels, water carries chemicals, minerals, and nutrients with it. read the rest @ http://watercures22..com.ng/ |

In the first season since Sir Alex Ferguson stood down as manager, United trailed in seventh in the Premier League and duly failed to qualify for the Champions League. Those disappointments saw David Moyes sacked after less than a year in charge. Dan Jones, partner in the sports business group at Deloitte, said: "A season that saw Manchester United finish in their lowest league position since the start of the Premier League era actually saw the Red Devils reclaim second spot in the money league. "Their commercial growth... continues to yield record-breaking deals.

In the 2004 FA Cup final, he scored Manchester's first three goals and helped them capture the championship. In 2008, he set a franchise record for goals scored. In 2009, Real Madrid paid a record $131 million for his services.

More than 70% of earths surface is water. However, most of it -about 98%- is salt water. Only 2% of the earth's water is freshwater and almost all is trapped in frozen glaciers. 2. The muscles that move your body are 75% water; your blood that transport nutrients is 82% water; your lungs are made up of 90% water; the brain that controls our body is 76% water; and our bones too contain enough water up to 25% find more by checking www.watercures22..com |
