Weight loss benefits:
Did you know that your body is composed of 60 percent water? For many years, people have been using water has their main source in weight loss. Water helps your body to eliminate toxins from your body, helping your digestion and many other organs.

Skin Benefits:
Drinking water will help your skin to clear up and it will leave your skin looking more awake and vibrant.

Drinking water while working out is very important. You should drink a full glass of water 30 minutes before your workout and this will enable your body to sweat out more of the toxins in your body.
