Category: Healthy Weight
Hey everybody Tuesday’s with Teresa, how’s it going?
I hope everybody’s having a good day. It’s a little cloudy here but that’s what happens in November in Minnesota anyway.
Today I am going to give you a tip to staying healthy this holiday and it’s nothing you don’t already know. I’ve already told you this before.
But it never hurts to hear it again. But first I’m going to tell you about some events coming up. If you haven’t already seen them or notice them and Dr Brouse is going to be talking about stress in the holidays. Here’s the link to watch it.
Get access to that I’ll put a link in the comments, holy! you will have access, it’ll be great! He is awesome. I love hearing from him when he has webinars. So I hope you can make it for that in the Saturday I am having a
We’re going to talk about youth, the science behind it. Why
Why you don’t want the chemicals on your skin. Your skin is your largest body and your largest organ. So I hope you can join me for that. And that’s going to be 10 o’clock on Saturday, how you can look your holiday best 30 days, you can do it so
Tip number one. So I’m going to give you seven tips because that’ll take us all the way through New Year’s Eve.
And the first tip I have talked about this before but I’ve been talking about it again and I’m going to put it as my number one tip because I truly, truly believe it’s very important hydrate hydrate hydrate.
When you are thirsty. You have already become dehydrated. So for this holiday. Again, here is the rule of thumb, you take your body weight and you divide that by two.
And that is how many ounces of water, you should drink every day. It’s another reason why I wanted to lose some weight, so I didn’t have to drink so much water.
So that is the rule of thumb, I mean that people say eight glasses of water, but a 300 pound person a glass of water isn’t going to touch a 50 pound little kid that’s going to drown them so body weight divided by two. And that’s how many ounces of water, some statistics, I found interesting.
The human adult is made up of 60% water.
So stay hydrated, your brain and your heart are 73% water. Your skin is 64% muscles in your kidneys are 79% and even your bones of 31% water.
So it’s really important. Stay hydrated weight loss. It’s another reason to drink water.
That’s something else I learned one gram of carbs needs three grams of fluids to metabolize
So drink water hydrate hydrate hydrate, it’s going to help keep your carbs from being stored as fat.
Now another studies show that after drinking two eight ounce glasses of water your system shifts into high gear.
To get your metabolism going the increases your rate of calorie burning by 30% about 40 minutes after you drink those two glasses of water and it stays for over an hour. I think that is pretty amazing.
Another reason to drink hydrate hydrate hydrate.
Your body is going to want to start holding water when you’re dehydrated. It’s not going to want to get rid of it.
Because it’s, it doesn’t know when it’s going to get any more, it, it wants to save it. It’s in save mode here. So you’re going to start retaining water if you don’t drink enough
Which is kind of what the opposite of what people think, oh, I shouldn’t drink water because I’m retaining it well you’re retaining water because you’re not drinking it.
Could be one of the reasons
Constipation if you don’t drink water, you’re going to get constipated. So here are some it flushes toxins, it’s going to help lessen muscle cramping and it’s going to help you feel full. So again, when you’re thirsty, you are already dehydrated, so
Drink, drink, drink, and that’s the other thing, because during the holidays. WE DRINK, DRINK, DRINK.
Alcohol will also dehydrate you so….
Body weight divided by two. That’s how many ounces of water you need every day.
So that is your tip for today hope you join me next Tuesday for another one, and I will survive the holidays.
