What's on my mind today is WATER! Some folks on FB were talking about not liking water and what to drink instead. Suggestions were fruits and vegies with lots of water, flavored drinks, etc.
I am obsessed with BRAIN HEALTH after recovering from a coma in 1985, so I know how important water is.
YOUR BRAIN NEED WATER!!
Brain composition: The brain is made up of approximately 73% water, and brain cells need to maintain a balance of water and other elements to function properly.
Energy: Water provides energy for the brain to function, including for thought and memory processes.
Nutrient and oxygen transport: Water helps transport nutrients and oxygen to the brain for optimal mental function.
Chemical reactions: Water is required for every chemical reaction in the brain, especially energy production.
Cushioning: Water cushions and lubricates brain tissue.
Hormone and neurotransmitter production: Water is needed for the production of hormones and neurotransmitters in the brain.
Toxins: Water is essential for removing toxins from the brain.
So - DRINK WATER!
