10 reasons why you need to drink more water

This post is brought to you by ZAK! All opinions are my own.

Before the New Year even started, I made a goal to drink more water. I got stainless steel water bottles from ZAK! at the beginning of the school year for everyone in my family and it has helped so much! Having a reusable water bottle makes it so easy to take my water with me everywhere I go and stay more hydrated than ever before.

Another one of my New Year’s Resolutions was to work out every day and be more active. This would definitely require being more hydrated. Both of these goals are going to be challenging for me, so I am glad that my husband and oldest girls are going to work on these goals with me. Fortunately, ZAK just sent me their new Genesis Bottles.

10 reasons why you need to drink more water

I love so much about these bottles. They come with a 2-in-1 lid. That means you can drink through the straw or unscrew the cap to drink straight from the bottle. The lids are also interchangeable between the Tritan™ Plastic and Stainless Steel Genesis bottles.

So if drinking more water or working out are some of your goals this year, you defiantly need to get a Genesis Water bottle from ZAK. I prefer that stainless steel one because it keeps my water/ice cold for hours.

10 reasons why you need to drink more water

Are you drinking enough water? Water is essential to so many functions of our body.

Here are 10 reasons why you need to drink more water*:

  1. It is 75% of your brain
  2. It regulates your body temperature
  3. It keeps your skin looking young
  4. It protects your heart
  5. It helps burn fat
  6. It prevents constipation
  7. It decreases fatigue
  8. It carries oxygen cells
  9. It flushes toxins out
  10. It helps control calorie intake

10 reasons why you need to drink more water

Just as a rule, you should be drinking eight 8-ounces glasses of water. The Genesis system comes 12-ounces to 64-ounces bottles so you can even fill it up once and then you just drink that bottle for the day.

The Genesis bottles we got are 24-ounces so I just fill them up a few times a day and drink the delicious cold water. My girls also love them. They use them when they workout, walking the dog when we travel and so much more.

10 reasons why you need to drink more water

Be sure to go check out these new Genesis Waterbottles from ZAK! They are super functional with the dual openings and the carry handle is really nice as well. I totally love the stainless steel one since it keeps the ice from melting so fast, but both are great bottles!

    Thanks for this reminder. When I lived in the desert I was fanatical about staying hydrated, now that I’m in a rainforest I’m always forgetting.

    I completely agree about drinking water. It’s pretty much all I drink too, ever since I was little. I’ve never really liked anything besides water.

    Water is a need! I have increased my water again and my mind feels great! I’m more awake, refreshed and my energy levels have increased just from increasing my water!

    One of my goals this year is to drink more water. I have a big water bottle, but it too big for me to carry around comfortably. I would like one that holds about 12 ounces of water at a time.

    I am guilty about not drinking enough water. I’ve got the cup (insulated to keep it super cold) and need to lose the excuses.

    Water is so good! I fill my YETI and drink from that all day refilling once. That’s about 80 ounces, plus coffee.

    I have my own system of keeping hydrated but thos water bottles are a great way to keep water on hand. Water is an important health benefit that many people ignore.

      Thanks for reminding how important the water is to our body. That’s why I hate it when we run out of cold water in our house.

    I need to pick this up! I am working on drinking more water. I always have a glass beside me now.
