Why Fruit Infused Water is all the Craze Right Now
Ever read on a health blog or in a magazine that you should add lemon to your water? We have too, but why? Hydration is key for a healthy and efficient body. Your body is made up of 50-75% water and can last for weeks without food but only days without water. The amount each body requires is specific to your size and physical output throughout the day but it is essential for our bodies and typically something we do not get enough of. The benefits of correct hydration on the body are huge. It helps to move oxygen and nutrients around your body and naturally flushes toxins. Your skin will be clearer, plumper and more elastic. Your joints will have more lubrication resulting in less strain and you may even have more energy in your muscles which creates more energy for physical activity. To help increase your fluid intake sip on infused water throughout the day. One of the reasons keeping up hydration is so hard for people is becasue they do not enjoy the taste of water to start with or they get bored of it as the day goes on.
And that is where infusing your water comes into play. Fruit infused water has numerous health benefits and encourages you to increase your water intake each day. Adding fruit, herbs or vegetables to your water allows you to design your own flavour to something that appeals to you which in turn results in consuming more water. Infuser bottles (our fave is Simply Infused Infuser bottles) makes it easy to infuse your water and enjoy it all day long.
