Good ol H2o



Here's some info on how much water to drink and filtering your water!

Getting our bodies an adequate amount of clean water daily can be a tough task if you normally don't drink much, but is very important to function properly both mentally and physically.   Some people experience headaches, fatigue, dry mouth, confusion and usually our first signs of hunger are actually cues of dehydration.   I drink about 4 liters of Aqualiv water a day beginning with 1.5 liters right when I wake up.  This flushes my body from any stored up toxins released during sleep and gets my cells hydrated and ready for their day.   After I drink my morning water, I wait about an hour to eat breakfast (unless it's an intermittent fast day, then I don't eat until around 3p).  Timing water intake around meals is important to allow proper digestion to occur.   A good rule is to not drink anything 30 minutes before or 2 hour after eating.   The rest of my 2.5 liters is spaced around my meals and snacks.  If I ever have a day that has a longer workout like a 100 mile bike ride, I will increase water intake accordingly.

To figure out how much water you should drink, take your body weight in lbs and divide by 2 to get your intake in ozs.  For example, if you weighed 180 lbs / 2 = 90 ozs of water.  To covert to liters, multiply by .03. 90 ozs - 2.7 liters.

Be sure to drink the best filtered water you can afford.  There are definitely different quality levels of filter systems ranging from your standard Brita to the Aqualiv system, the best filter system in the world.  The Brita will at least get rid of basic contaminants like chlorine and small particles but leaves many contaminants behind like flouride and does nothing to change the alkalinity, structure of the water or bioinformation.  This is where the Aqualiv steps it up.  The Aqualiv system gets rid of all contaminants and small particles including chlorine, flouride and arsenic.  The water is also naturally alkaline between 8.5-10.0 depending on the source water.  By structuring the water back to it's natural hexagonal state, the water is able to hydrate the cells much more efficiently.   Lastly water just like any other substance on earth has bioinformation.  Aqualiv has discovered how to read the barcodes of substances and erase negative images and reprogram ideal images onto a carrier.  This is beneficial because even when some toxins are removed, if the bioimprint isn't erased, it can cause the same reaction as if the toxin were present.  

I can personally say I am a total water snob and won't drink water unless it's at least Brita filtered.  I prefer my Aqualiv though.  After putting in Aqualiv at the studio, everyone empties their bottles upon arrival and fills before they leave!
