3 Reasons Why Water is So Important

“Baby, it’s hot outside!” Just a few months ago we were complaining about the cold in Upstate NY, but now that summer has officially arrived, heat and all, it’s important to remember to stay hydrated!

So what’s all the fuss about water, anyway? Here are three reasons why it’s so important to our bodies:

  1. Water boosts energy.
  2. Water delivers important nutrients to all our cells, especially muscle cells, postponing muscle fatigue.
  3. Water acts as a lubricant and cushion for your joints.

Water does many other helpful things, too, like regulate body temperature, flush body waste, and help maintain blood pressure; all of which helps keep us healthy and moving! So, grab a glass and take a sip! Your body will thank you!
