On average, the human body is made up of 60% water. This means we need to continuously drink water to keep our bodies healthy. If you don’t drink enough water, you can become dehydrated and end up sick. Follow along to find out why water is so important and the benefits you can get from crystal-infused water.

Why Is Water Important?

There are so many reasons why water is important. Water is an integral part of getting waste out of your body, regulating your body temperature, and helping your brain function. Here are four reasons why water is essential for living.

Saliva

When your mouth gets really dry, it can really make you feel bad. It makes it harder to eat certain items, like bread because the food dries out your mouth even more. This can lead to developing a sore throat. Drinking water is an easy way to help your mouth produce more saliva. When you have enough saliva in your mouth, it will help keep your mouth healthy.

Regulates Your Temperature

When you get hot, your body begins to sweat. This is your body’s natural defence system against overheating. However, if you have not been drinking enough water, your body will have difficulty producing sweat. This makes you way more likely to overheat. It is essential to replace the water your body loses through sweating. The more you sweat, the more water you need to drink.

Internal Protection

As it turns out, water does more than just make you less thirsty and keep your mouth from getting dry. Another purpose of water is to keep the tissues throughout your body moist. Staying hydrated keeps your internal body moist, which helps with your bones and brain. Also, water even helps protect your spinal cord. Finally, water acts as a lubricant for your joints. This means your joints won’t rub up against each other and cause you pain.

Prevents Dehydration

If you don’t drink enough water, you will become dehydrated. The general rule of thumb for water consumption is to drink roughly a half-gallon of water a day. However, if you engage in activities that will cause you to sweat, you need to drink more water. Also, if you are sick and are vomiting or having diarrhoea, you will need to replace the fluids you are losing. Certain health conditions, such as bladder infections or urinary tract stones, can also be improved by drinking more fluids. Finally, if you are pregnant, you will want to drink more water as well.

Here are some unusual signs of dehydration to look out for:

  • Bad breath: If your mouth is excessively dry, it can lead to infection. This can cause you to have bad breath.
  • Dry or Flushed Skin: When you get overly dehydrated, your skin can become very dry due to a lack of moisture. This can also cause your skin to appear flushed.
  • Muscle Cramps: When you are working out in the heat, the heat can cause your muscles to cramp up if you do not drink enough water.
  • Fever and Chills: If you are not drinking enough water, you can get Heat Illness, leading to dehydration. If you have heat illness, you will probably be sweating a lot, but your skin will feel cool to your touch.
  • Food Cravings for sweets: If your liver doesn’t have enough water, it can have trouble releasing your energy stores. This means you will crave something to give you energy.
  • Headaches: There are many causes of headaches, but not drinking enough water can lead to one. If you have a headache, drink some water and see if it helps.

Crystal-infused Water

If you have never heard of crystal-infused water, it is the process of taking a crystal and infusing it with your water. You can do this by actually inserting the crystal into your water or setting the crystal next to your water. You can also buy pre-made water bottles that have the crystal already inside them.

Benefits of Crystal-infused Water

When it comes to the benefits of drinking crystal-infused water, it depends on what crystals you use. Different crystals are known for different things. Whichever crystal you use, your water will be infused with the energetic vibrations of that crystal. No matter what crystal you use, however, it will help bring balance to your life.

Here are some examples of what crystals can manifest for you:

  • Love-Rose Quarts
  • Happiness-Citrine
  • Prosperity-Jade
  • Creativity-Amethyst
  • Good Health-Clear Quarts

Another benefit coming from drinking crystal-infused water is that you will be extremely hydrated. It can be pretty boring drinking out of a plastic, crinkly water bottle, but drinking out of a bottle with a crystal inside is pretty fun. This will make you more likely to drink a lot of water.

Having your crystal-infused water bottle is also sure to bring compliments along with it. People will be interested in your water bottle and will think you are cool for having it. This can improve your mood, which leads to a healthier life.

Water in any form is essential. Our body is 60% water, so we must drink plenty of water every day. Some major benefits of drinking water are keeping your saliva level up, regulating your temperature, protecting your internal body, and keeping you from suffering from dehydration. Water is basically a super liquid that helps keep your body running.

Crystal-infused water is a fun way to drink your water that also has other benefits. Depending on the crystal you choose to infuse your water with, it can provide you with various benefits. Some examples of what crystals can manifest for you are love, happiness, prosperity, creativity, and good health. It isn’t hard to infuse your water with crystals, but you can also buy water bottles that come with the crystals already inside. Either way, it is certain to boost your mood and help you manifest what you desire.
