Kevin4Bowen—What is Hydration? |
|
Hydration is your body's ability to absorb and manage water at a cellular level. Good hydration results in balance between water moving in and out of the body, tissue and cells and is a major issue in wellness. A major reason for poor hydration as we get older is the gradual decline of the thirst mechanism in the brain. Good hydration during the early life prevents visible ageing that occurs when the skin (the largest organ) becomes regularly dehydrated. Your body’s cells need water to function. It is the basis of the fluids that bathe the cells and tissues of your body. Your most basic nutritional task is “water balance”. It is not how much water you drink that determines how fluids are balanced throughout your body. It is the concentration and distribution of these fluids and their nutrients that determine internal shifts and balances. Synergy means the whole is greater than the sum of the parts and herbalists have used this phenomenon over the centuries to great effect. Aqua Hydration Formulas (Aquas) are designed following this alchemical concept of synergy. The fact that water acts at the most basic level of metabolism should be a clue to the importance of hydration as a component in any holistic healthcare regimen. Most people assume that drinking water will ensure they are not dehydrated. Drinking purified water is certainly a useful first step in supporting good health. Yet in today’s stressful environment it is not enough. The Aquas are designed to promote stamina and wellbeing by supporting hydration in your body and assisting its management of fluids right down to a cellular level. The Aquas combine homeopathics, herbal extracts and flower essences in safe, simple drops. One formula taken on rising, the other on retiring caters for the difference in waking & sleeping metabolism. Aquas are registered on the Australian Therapeutic Goods Administration website as Over the Counter (prescription free) medication — Order Aquas from Kevin4Bowen — Download Aquas factsheet |
