Electrolytes


Whats the big buzz today about Electrolytes the search for more and knowing why they are important has become a gossip buzz in health guru circles.


An electrolyte is a substance which dissociates free ions when dissolved (or molten), to produce an electrically conductive medium. Because they generally consist of ions in solution, electrolytes are also known as ionic solutes. They are sometimes referred to in abbreviated jargon as lytes.


Electrolytes generally exist as acids, bases or salts.

"Good Advice That's Not" (Health, July) said drinking lots of water won't help you lose weight. It is true that water can't fill you up, but drinking it is an important weight-loss tool since water helps metabolize fat and sugars.



--Theresa Westhoff, Lafayette, Colo.


Truly, water is the key ingredient for healthier skin and natural weight loss.


All weight-loss programs are based on reduced caloric intake and increased metabolic rate, both of which are naturally achieved with an increased intake of clean, healthy water.


Water is also the key ingredient to keep the skin moist, subtle and resilient. The best way to moisturize is from the inside.

Fact and Tip 

Water Facts you May Not Know!

Useful resources facts and tips on water.

Fact #1:

But let's say you adhere to the "eight 8-ounce glasses of water a day" nutritional recommendation. In 64 ounces of water, there are 1,892.72 grams. So to warm up all that water in the course of a day, your body burns 70,030 calories, or 70 Calories. And over time, that 70 Calories a day adds up. So, while you definitely shouldn't depend on ice water consumption to replace exercise or a healthy diet, drinking cold water instead of warm water does, in fact, burn some extra Calories!

Fact #2:

Not only does water play a role in nearly every bodily function, from cushioning your joints to removing waste from your body, adequate water consumption is crucial to good health.

Fatigue, Headaches,

Water For Beauty

Have a fresh supply with you at all times using what is most convenient for you. Bottled water, a thermos, or that huge go-cup that used to hold your coffee.

Just make sure your water is fresh.

#1) Keep a back-up supply everywhere: at work, your car, the gym locker, even a bottled water in the baby buggy.

#2) When you need to replace your fridge, consider a model that has a front dispenser for both cold water and ice. This will be a treat for the whole family and a wise investment in everyone's health.

#3) Home, have your 1 liter a day requirement waiting for you in a pitcher, it is encouraging as you see the level go down throughout the day.

#4) Having a hot mug of water or two in the evening to replace those last cups of coffee or tea, will fool your cravings.

#5) Add a slice of lemon, mmm, wonderfully soothing.

#6) For a refreshing pick me up in the heat, add the lemon slices to crushed ice and water.

#7) Order water with every meal you eat away from home and have with every meal at home.

#8) A runway model trick is drinking water 1/2 hour before a long show to curb appetite. Use this trick to help suppress your appetite and loose a few pounds as a bonus, a added bonus of water for beauty.

#9) Sip your water at red lights, while waiting in line, reception rooms,,walking, even at your hairdresser. Make it part of your day and it will become second nature to sip during idle time.

#10) Drink cold water from your favorite wine glass or hot from your prettiest mug.
