Water is very important, everyone knows that, our cells need high quality water that will nourish the cell, and hydrate our bodies. But lets be honest, sometimes drinking water isn’t always on your mind and drinking the right amount for your body will keep you going to the bathroom every 20 minutes, so skipping water is common, until you get extremely thirsty which at that point your body is already dehydrated.
There is an easy way to double the hydration you get from drinking the same amount of water, and getting the moisture your skin and body needs. Athletes need a lot of hydration (there is never too much hydration), and they use electrolytes to boost the absorption of water they consume. Studies say that most people are dehydrated, and the water that is available to the people is not of high quality that cells absorb easily and efficiently. That is okay, because there is always a solution to every problem.
Our Skin thrives off hydration and needs a lot of water for it to be smooth, supple and breakout free. (of course that is only one component of having healthy clear skin, but a major one) Luck for you, your skin cells are the last to receive nutrients and water from your blood, because your body and cells are very smart to deliver nutrients and water to the most important organ cells that your body needs to keep you alive. ( I can write a whole other post about your body’s anatomy, but I will keep this short) So in short, if there is not enough water running through your body, your skin will let you know, in many ways actually, dehydrated (not dry) skin, flaky skin, breakouts, extra oil production, dull skin, lack of elasticity, sallow skin, and dark under eye.
Adding electrolytes to your regular water will help boost the water absorption without you having to drink more water, and without the added sugar in other drinks. It will help deliver the hydration your skin needs to all of your skin cells in an efficient amount to improve the texture and look of your skin.
