The Importance of water in your diet
Water is essential in a human’s daily diet. Drinking water permits our body to flush out waste, protect human tissue and joints.
Water also supports digestion and helps boost the metabolism.

1. Start your day by Rehydrating
Our bodies lose so much water through breathing, sweating and urinating, therefore it is so important to refuel our bodies with water as soon as we wake up.
Other benefits to drinking water first thing in the morning include;
- Feeling more alert and awake
- Helps boost your metabolism and aids with weight loss, as water keeps you fuller for longer
- Improves mental performance
- Improves overall health and wellbeing
2. Eat your way to Hydration
If you struggle to drink water throughout the day there are other alternatives to help you increase your daily water intake.

Fruits high in water
- Watermelon can contain up to 91% water!!
- Strawberries
- Grapefruit
- Oranges
- Pineapple
Imagine combining all of the above fruits together…perfect fresh fruit juice combo.
Soups
In colder months you may find it harder to reach your daily water requirements.
This is where soup season comes in… not only is a big, hot bowl of soup a winter comfort food it is also a super EASY way to increase your water intake.

I struggle so hard with drinking water. I have to constantly remind myself to drink it throughout the day. I’m definitely going to make sure I rehydrates in the mornings. Thank you for sharing! 💗
Creme Brûlée Tea! omg you have made my day! Yum
I always try to chug two glasses right when I wake up!
I need to be better about drinking more water! I loved your tips about hydrating with fruit. I’ve also found that carrying a big cup with a big straw (similar to the size of the straws used with bubble tea) helps me drink more.
Great tips!! I take meds that make me dehydrated so I need all the tips I can get!
