I know last week I said that western women were going to heal the world, but YES we need men too! I’d like to invite you to join me to be part of something very special. My husband says less words = more. If you have enjoyed reading my blogs OR if you want to give back to mankind, please consider supporting this vital fundraiser with a small donation and click HERE for more information. One $50 filtration system brings water to 100 people for 10 years!

Currently 100,000 people die everyday due to lack of clean water. This needs to change. Thank you for taking a look, I really appreciate it.  Carpe Diem.

With Love & Gratitude,

Lisa

PS
Why is water so vital for optimal health?  Here are some interesting facts and estimates:

1. It is estimated that the body is 70% water, the brain is 75% water and the blood is 92% water; dehydration can cause dizziness and headaches
2. 2% drop in body water can create difficulty concentrating and effect short-term memory.
3. Three quarters of Americans are chronically dehydrated.
4. We often mistake hunger for thirst. Try drinking water before grabbing an unhealthy processed carbohydrate. It can stop hunger pangs.
5. It can lower joint and back pain as water is required for synovial fluid.
6. Mild dehydration slows the bodies metabolism.
7. Drinking 5 glasses of water daily decreases the risk of colon cancer by 45%, plus it can slash the risk of breast cancer by 79%, and one is 50% less likely to develop bladder cancer.[1]
8. Lack of water is the #1 trigger of daytime fatigue.
9. Water is required for nearly every part of the human body to function efficiently from carrying nutrients and oxygen to all the cells in the body, to converting food into energy and to protect and cushion vital organs.
10. Water is required for breathing.
