Water – An Absolute Health Essential

Drinking proper amounts of water is vital to good health. In fact, water is second in importance to our bodies only to oxygen. Among water’s most important functions are:

• Joint lubrication
• Body temperature regulation
• Body tissue and organ protection
• Tissue moistening (eyes, nose, mouth)
• Waste product flushing
• Mineral & nutrient dissolution making them more readily accessible
• Oxygen and nutrient transmission to cells

To maintain better health, medical professionals and nutritionists recommend that you replenish your body with water on a regular and frequent basis. Dehydration, even at levels of 1 to 2 percent loss of your body weight, can lead to feelings of fatigue and energy loss. Typical symptoms of dehydration include:

• Fatigue
• Mild to excess thirst
• Headache
• Dry mouth
• Dizziness & Lightheadedness
• Muscle weakness

In order to meet your daily hydration needs, the Institute of Medicine recommends that men consume approximately 3.0 liters (about 13 cups) of total beverages per day and that women drink 2.2 liters (about 9 cups) of total beverages a day.

With this guideline in mind, we suggest that you drink “ultra-pure” Menehune and Hawaii brand waters -- the perfect way to hydrate your body!
