Water is the most important nutrient for our body and it makes up more than half of our body mass. It is very important that we drink plenty of water every day in order to survive. We can go weeks without food. We can only go days without water.
Water has many important roles in our body some of which include:
- transporting nutrients
- flushing toxins
- removing wastes
Adding a pinch of sea salt (Himalayan, Celtic, or RealSalt) to every glass of water that you consume can aid in hydration and the replenishment of electrolytes. Doing this will also support the adrenal glands. The natural minerals contained in sea salt including potassium and magnesium along with over 60 others are responsible for improving hydration. It is important not to use regular table salt that has been highly processed. Two books I can suggest to read more on this subject are Dr. David Brownstein’s Salt Your Way To Healthand Your Body’s Many Cries for Water by Dr. F. Batmanghelidj.
