Why Is Dehydration Bad?
Many Canadians are depriving themselves of what they need the most: water.
As a result, many experience mild dehydration without realizing. They end up inhibiting optimal function within their body, or worst, putting their health at risk.
Organs and blood are made up mostly of water. When the human body is dehydrated, organs work less effectively and blood volume decreases. This puts a strain on the body. Thicker blood makes the heart pump harder, increasing heart rate and blood pressure. Substandard organ function can lead to unwanted afflictions. For example, in some situations of dehydration, kidney stones can form due to the lack of water flushing out toxins and salts in the body. Water acts as a protective agent in the body, cushioning the spinal cord and lubricating joints. If you’re suffering from a sore back or stiff joints, dehydration could be the cause.
The Benefits of Drinking Spring Water
There are many benefits associated with spring water. The most notable benefit is its delicious, fresh taste. Other types of water often taste metallic or murky, but natural spring water is crisp and refreshing. Once you have a taste, you will want to drink it all the time. This is because of the concentration of minerals in the water, like calcium and magnesium. These minerals enhance the water’s flavour and also contribute to your body’s daily nutritional requirements.
Spring water is naturally filtered prior to bottling. As it travels to the surface, rocks and soil purify the water, making it pristine. Additional chemical filtration is not required; therefore, no additives such as chlorine or fluoride ever enter the water. Spring water remains natural from start to finish. It is water you can always trust, and always enjoy.
Symptoms of Dehydration
It doesn’t take much to become mildly dehydrated. Losing just 2% of your weight in water will cause you to become dehydrated. The symptoms are noticeable, but not often recognized as signs of dehydration. When you’re dehydrated, you might experience thirst, headaches, brain fog, mental or physical fatigue, a lack of focus, joint pain, muscle cramps, bad breath, and dizziness and/or light-headedness. Skin and hair can be negatively affected as well. Skin is often drier and duller, less elastic, and displays more prominent signs of aging. Hair becomes dry, weak, and frizzy. Products and treatments can address most, if not all, of these types of symptoms, but the easiest and most affordable method is to just drink water. Increase the amount of water you drink daily and see if you notice improvements in any of these areas.

How To Hydrate
Drinking an adequate amount of water every day is an easy habit to develop. Start with knowing how much water you need to drink by dividing your weight in half. This is the volume of water (in ounces) you should drink daily. Decide how many glasses or bottles of water you will drink each day, and develop a habit of meeting that goal regularly. Another helpful tip is to drink water you love. Prioritize good taste and natural purity in your drinking water. Spring water is the best water you can drink if you’re committed to staying well-hydrated.
