Staying hydrated during summer

Did you know that dryness in your elbows is the first sign of dehydration? The main factor leading to this condition is lack of moisture to the elbow area. Anytime you become dehydrated, your skin fails to receive an adequate amount of moisture, and becomes dry and itchy. Especially during summer when dehydration is a major concern, remember to stay hydrated and take extra precautions to restore moisture to your skin.
 
A common question that arises is why should we drink more water in summer? Most people get their daily fluid intake in summer from coffee, tea, or sodas and although such beverages contain water, they also have sugar and caffeine, which is one of the reasons for dehydration. Furthermore, constant exposure to indoor air conditioning in summer can also add to drying out of skin. Lack of proper hydration of cells means fewer nutrients are going into the cells.
 
Another factor associated with dehydration is aging. Moisture plays a big role in younger looking skin. Since about 70% of our body is made up of water and every cell in the body needs ample amounts of the right kind of water to function at its most efficient level, it is important to understand that our hydration level is crucial, not only for the skin, but for every function in the body. 
 
It is important to note that it is not just water, but also the type of water you drink that can go a long way in keeping you healthy and young. Most of our body naturally maintains an alkaline state at which it functions best. So it stands to reason that one must consume alkaline beverages and foods to help the body function most efficiently.

Aquaplus alkaline water is one such premium water which has recently entered the Dubai market. Aquaplus water undergoes a unique filtration process that gives it beneficial alkaline properties and reduces the water clusters in size, enabling them to hydrate the body more efficiently. Water with these properties hydrates at a faster rate, improves detoxification and helps your body absorb minerals and nutrients much easier, leaving you doubly refreshed. Alkaline water has been said to be the fountain of youth.
 
“Summer can wreak havoc on the health of your hair and skin. Many of us just concentrate on the external defence against sun damage, while forgetting about the benefits of the intake of good food and the right kind of water. Especially in a region where the sun shines brightly for most part of the year, you need to be extremely sure that you consume the right kind of water to avoid any problems. The concept of alkaline water has made a huge headway and the world is just beginning to understand the merits of an alkaline lifestyle. At Aquaplus, we are committed to improving the quality of life of the communities we serve,” said Ms. Anita Shirodkar, Managing Director of Aquaplus.

While there is no universal formula for how much water you need to consume, the benefits of getting enough are huge. Your body can help you stay properly hydrated by regulating the amount of water in your system. Your body will be able to do all of its wonderful jobs and you'll feel great!
