Water simply is not always the thirst Cut!

Tuesday, March 23, 2010

We all know the summer with thirst and I am quite sure we've all said, and about how good water is to be read to you and how most of us simply do not drink enough.

But if you are thirsty and do not cut the water, what do you do? Well, for me, the answer would be Coca Cola - cold, of course. For some, it would be a cold beer, and others would opt for soft drinks. But what is the healthy choice here, delete both the thirst AND aid our body health?

AfterJane Claxton-Oldfield, good old-fashioned soda has some serious disadvantages. "... The fact that many sodas contain caffeine - a stimulant - is no secret. On the contrary, some non-alcoholic beverages brought on the basis of their high intake of caffeine!"

She goes on to explain: "Too much caffeine can have serious consequences on health because it stimulates the release of adrenal hormones, which can cause a rise in blood pressure. Give the newer high caffeine content" promise, a burst of -- EnergyDrinks are mainly a very bad choice for quenching thirst. In fact, for each high-caffeinated beverage you consume, it is advisable to drink one or two glasses of water to combat its negative effects

"Another problem with soda is the high phosphorus, calcium (ratio of most soft drinks very little to no calcium). If we are too much phosphorus and calcium do not have enough, the body will draw calcium from the bones to the imbalance in correct ourBloodstream.

"Eventually may lead to osteoporosis. As if that's not enough, there is also a concern for other additives, such as color, which all too often found in soft drinks."

Well, Pop is out - at least it should be - but what does that leave us with choices?

Many people opt for fruit juices, to take the sharpness that supply the thirst and the body with much needed vitamins and nutrients. But while we are fruit juice, which is talking with the high sugar contentContent? I think it's another idea, the proverbial tube! Of course we could squeeze our new juice - but it takes a whole series of oranges (about 10!), To even a small glass of orange juice, and in today's economy, which is not necessarily the best idea.

What about eating a big, juicy orange? Or a piece of watermelon, one half of a Canteloupe, fresh pineapple or kiwi and mango? You'll be surprised how much a serving of one of these fruits will suppress your thirstand give you the much needed impetus to diet is whole foods can provide.

Another good idea is, of course, herbal teas. Herbal tea, the SO is best during the hot summer months. Simply put: 4-6 herbal tea bags in a glass jar or glass and sit outside in the sun until it reaches the thickness you prefer.

When I'm in a hurry and do not have to like a pitcher of iced tea, I am a single cup of hot tea (I let it be a little too steep stronger than menormally drink). Then I just pour it into a glass, add a few ice cubes and add enough water to make a full 10 or 12 ounces glass. Trust me, it works really well and it is delicious - almost a minute! And, herbal teas, like a good green tea (high in antioxidants) or chamomile (great day for you are stressed and worried), or a citrus and spice tea (great for energy!), Are very healthy alternatives to soda and beer.

Refreshing, Healthy & Delicious instantIced Tea

1 Green tea bag (or orange and spices, chamomile or other herbal mixture of your choice)
2 orange slices
5-7 ice cubes
Sweetener to taste (I prefer honey!) (Optional)
1 cup

Boiling water into the cup and your tea bag and let it steep for about 3 or 4 minutes. Add the ice cubes into a tall glass and pour the tea over the cubes. Add sweetener to taste if necessary. Add the orange slices to the mixture, pressing a little, as you putin the glass. top glass with cold water and enjoy your healthy treat of tea. I always swallow the orange slices, if I finish my tea glass.

Of course I have to add that drinking a small glass of freshly squeezed juice (you can in a little water to stretch it further) and your 8-10 glasses of water a day, are very healthy eating habits that we should all try to maintain .
