1. Aids in Digestion
Water is essential for good health. Drinking water during or after a meal actually aids digestion.Water and other liquids help break down food so that your body can absorb the nutrients. It keeps the food you eat moving along through your intestines and it keeps your intestines smooth and flexible, too. Water also softens stool, which helps prevent constipation.

2. Calorie Control
Drinking water could help reduce your overall liquid calorie intake. Because water contains no calories, filling your glass with H2O instead of higher calorie alternatives such as juice, soda, or sweetened tea or coffee can reduce your overall liquid calorie intake. Drinking water increases the amount of calories you burn, which is known as resting energy expenditure. These results may be even more impressive when the water is cold. When you drink cold water, your body uses extra calories to warm the water up to body temperature.

3. Natural Energy
Staying hydrated helps maintain our energy levels by keeping muscles energized. Plus, dehydration can manifest as fatigue or low energy, so staying hydrated will help prevent that. Even mild dehydration can affect your mood, energy level and ability to think clearly.

4. Improves Mood
Every system in the human body counts on water to function, and the brain is no exception. In fact, about 75 percent of brain tissue is water. Research has linked dehydration to depression and anxiety, because mental health is driven primarily by your brain’s activity. In other words, dehydration causes brain functioning to slow down and not function properly. It is important to think of water as a nutrient your brain needs.

5. Youthful Skin
Drinking at least 8 glasses a day will help rid the body and skin of toxins. When you drink enough water, the cells in every part of your body get hydrated through the blood. The skin, being the largest organ in the body, also gets hydrated, even as the impurities and toxins get flushed out at the cellular level. This helps to improve skin tone, prevent premature aging, helps reduce puffiness, prevents acne, and more!
