We've heard it all before, water is needed for good health. We all use water, we drink a few glasses a day maybe, and take a shower or bath daily. The Sher System re-educates us in understanding how important water is to our general wellbeing and that of our skin. The Sher System uses water internally and externally. Combined with The Sher System's products, lashings of water are used to cleanse, protect and miraculously repair and rebalance the skin.

Drinking Pure Water

The facts are that most people do not drink enough water.

The World Health Organisation recommends that adults drink eight large glasses of water daily, but few people actually do and many people consider drinking tea, coffee or alcohol as part of their fluid intake (which do not hydrate, they dehydrate). Many people do not recognise that they are dehydrated and as people grow older, the symptoms become more difficult to identify.

Symptoms of lack of water intake include:

		headaches
		constipation
		lethargy
		lack of alertness and changes in mood

Some doctors and health gurus claim that not drinking enough water causes many of society's most common serious ailments, such as asthma, high blood pressure, diabetes and obesity. A dry or discoloured tongue and darker than normal urine are signs that you are dehydrated.

Each person loses six pints of water daily: a pint perspiring, two in breathing out and three in urine. Water is essential for the body to replace lost water, to cool and lubricate and to flush out waste and toxins.

Get Into the Habit

Drinking water in the morning flushes out the kidneys and regulates the bowels. Get into a habit of having a litre of water (preferably purified).

An easy way to incorporate good drinking water habits – have a glass of water as soon as you wake in the morning, always have a glass of water ½ hour before each meal and one ½ hour after each meal. Drinking water with your meal dilutes the digestive juices.

This method gives you a set time to drink your water – one glass on waking, two with breakfast, two with lunch, two with dinner – making 7 glasses a day. Perfect!
