Week 6 HYDRATION & ELECTROLYTES!

HYDRATION

It is imperative to your health, detox and weightloss program to be adequately hydrated and replenish your electrolytes.

Beyond basic bottled/tap Water:  When you exercise & sweat you are not only losing water you are also losing electrolytes.  When you hydrate, find a good source of electrolytes and water that is not filled with high sodium,sugar or chemical dyes and ingredients.

Coconut Water Benefits

Coconut water is incredibly healthy and one of the best drinks to hydrate the body. Besides helping to remove toxins from the body and aiding digestion, coconuts have amazing anti-viral, anti-fungal and anti-microbial properties that help to cure the diesease.


"It's a natural isotonic beverage, with the same level of electrolytic balance as we have in our blood. It's the fluid of life, so to speak." In fact, during the Pacific War of 1941-45, both sides in the conflict regularly used coconut water siphoned directly from the nut to give emergency plasma transfusions to wounded soldiers.
Most coconut water is still consumed fresh in tropical coastal areas - once exposed to air, the liquid rapidly loses most of its organoleptic and nutritional characteristics, and begins to ferment.

Coconut Water is more nutritious than whole milk - Less fat and no cholesterol.
Coconut Water is more healthy than orange juice - Much lower calories.
Coconut Water is better than processed baby milk - It contains lauric acid, which is present in human mother's milk.
Coconut water is naturally sterile. Water permeates though the filtering husk.
Coconut water is a universal donor. It is identical to human blood plasma.
Coconut Water is a Natural Isotonic Beverage - The same level that we have in our blood.
Coconut water has saved lives in 3rd world countries thru Coconut IV.
"Coconut water is the very stuff of Nature, biologically Pure, full of Natural Sugars, Salts, and Vitamins to ward off fatigue and is the next wave of energy drinks BUT natural", according to Mortin Satin, Chief of the United Nation's Food & Agriculture Organization.
Coconut water contains more potassium (at about 294 mg) than most sports drinks (117 mg) and most energy drinks.
Coconut water has less sodium (25mg) where sports drinks have around 41mg and energy drinks have about 200 mg.
Coconut water has 5mg of Natural Sugars where sports and energy drinks range from 10-25mg of Altered Sugars.

MAGNETIC AND IONIC ELECTROLYTE ALKALINE WATER TECHNOLOGY:

Drinking any water is good, but there is good, better and Best!




Reverse Osmosis Water tastes good, but it removes everything from the water including electrolytes and other important nutrients.  The Japanese call it "Dead Water"  A better filter would be carbon filtration.   

I love the KANGEN alkaline water filter.  It is pricy, but for those who have tested the quality and uses for the water it pays for itself in the long run.

Until you can afford the KANGEN model ($3,000-$4,000),   I suggest the NIKKEN PIMAG WATERFALL.  It has a great filtration system and natural rocks from the ocean give the water the minerals that have been depleted from our soil and also increase the alkalinity of the water.  It is overall more hydrating and beneficial.  Also the tap is magnatized which ionizes the water as it passes through.  It is convenient and portable and I bring it along with me on all my vacations. 

I saw a demo of KANGEN water where they washed lettuce with tap water and with KANGEN water.  The tap water stayed perfectly clean and clear and even the chlorine was removed from it and absorbed by the lettuce.   So the vegetables were cleaning the water, the water wasn't cleaning the vegetables!  In the alkaline water the lettuce was washed and the water poured out dirty.  Instead of using my tap water to wash vegetables I wash them with my PiMag water.  Then I pour the water out in the garden.  The minerals make my garden grow like crazy!!  And it saves water in draught season.  Another draught and water conserving tactic is forming a bucket brigade with the children's bath water for irrigation purposes.  

Speaking of bathing, when you wake up first thing in the morning  you don't want to jump into a shower and open your pores with hot water filled with chloromines and chemicals!  Your skin is your largest organ and it is covered in pores that intake hydration.  Give your skin clean hydration.  That's another reason why I love bathing with my PiMag Shower system.  The water is so soft you hardly need soap and it leaves your skin and hair soft.

There is also a handy PiMag SPORT BOTTLE which I brought along with me to our DISNEYLAND vacation.  Instead of standing in line paying ridiculous amounts of money for questionable water and adding to the landfill problems with more disposable plastic, I just brought my one water bottle and refilled it at drinking fountains or bathroom sinks and the kids squirted it into their mouths.  It saved time and money and wasn't as bulky as packing 9 water bottles...not to mention the water was far superior than any we could buy in a plastic bottle.
