Water is a great way to start if you’re looking to increase your energy levels. Drinking water has reduced anxiety, and stress levels, boosted cognitive function, and improved sleep quality.
By increasing your intake of water throughout the day, you’ll not only feel better physically but mentally as well. Here are some tips on how to increase your water intake and maintain energy levels:
Different Ways to Keep The Body Energized
Most people drag their way through daily, tired, stressed, and without vitality. Here is how to improve mental and physical well-being to help you stay energized daily
With today’s society as it is, it is a miracle that there is a chance to eat, sleep or even finish all the tasks and goals that comprise the list of normal daily life. The pace of the world has become faster, and with faster cars, jobs, lives, and entertainment, it has become a slow uphill struggle to maintain good health, vivaciousness, and vigor.
Increasing Body Energy daily
There have been numerous diets and ways in which health food, exercise experts, and spiritual gurus say individuals should increase their body health and vitality. Each of these ways has its pros and cons, and it is up to the individual to establish which one method best suits their health and body needs. The two methods to be examined are:
- ingestion of an alkaline-rich diet
- internal cleansing or detox
While some experts agree that energizing the body is simply a matter of obtaining enough exercise, eating right, or managing stress levels, what makes the most difference is the breakdown of their meaning.
According to Sam Graci, a Nutritional Researcher and author of The Bone Building Solution, in an article for Vitality Magazine for Health Product News, the level of acid and alkalinity in foods indicates low or high body fat energy levels.
Alkalinity versus Acidity
Graci reiterates that the secret to vitality can be achieved purely by achieving an alkaline pH level in the body, citing examples of alkaline-rich foods such as fruits and vegetables and acidic foods as foods rich in dairy and protein. He states,”…after food is consumed, digested and absorbed, it leaves an ash residue in our body.
Foods that produce alkaline ash are called alkaline forming foods, whereas those that produce acid ash are called acid-forming foods.”
He further states that “…your body’s pH (potential of hydrogen) represents the balance of positively charged (acid-forming) ions to negatively charged (alkalinizing) ions. For optimum health, studies show the ideal blood chemistry is slightly alkaline. When overly acidic, the body becomes a suitable environment for disease and chronic illness…”
Graci points out that despite the necessity of both types of food, the challenge comes when the body ingests more acidic food than alkaline food and vice versa, stating that the ideal diet occurs when the body ingests 75% alkalizing foods to 25% acidic foods.
An acidic diet could lead to a weak immune system, food not being properly absorbed, and mental and physical stamina loss.
Detox
Detoxification is the process by which the body gets rid of unwanted wastes and toxins by a method where an external product, natural or artificial, is used to cleanse the internal organs and system of the body.
Detoxification is not only isolated to cleansing toxins produced by the body. Still, it is also a necessity for living in today’s society with its affluence of ingestible toxins from the manufactured products that surround individuals’ daily lives.
The most popular detox programs on today’s market include programs for alcohol detox, colon cleansing, weight loss, and heavy metal detox, but according to Kim Evans in an article for Natural News entitled, “Detox Symptoms are Often What Medical Folks Call Disease,” it is easy for individuals to mistake the body’s natural detoxification for disease, and interrupting this natural detoxification process by any means could aggravate the infection.
She states, “When we have a problem in the body, the body tries to detoxify itself to remove the problem. So that is why we experience detoxification symptoms in the presence of a problem.
They can take the form of fevers (toxins trying to leave through the skin), (or) headaches (too many toxins in the bloodstream).”
A Healthier Lifestyle
Despite all the methods available for increasing mental and physical health, well-being and vitality, it is important that every individual chooses which methods will best suit their personalities and their lifestyles.
Eating and living well in this time of fast food, convenient transportation, and cable television is not easy. Still, if the activity helps achieve longevity and greater stress-free daily, it is well worth trying.
