Detox waters
l Switch language for recipe in French l
As you know it is important to stay hydrated throughout the day and it is recommended to drink 1.5 to 2 liters of water a day. This allows our body to maintain all vital processes such as maintaining body temperature, allowing chemical reactions in cells and the absorption and transport of nutrients ingested, allowing the brain neurological activity, ensuring skin hydration or eliminating waste from digestion. It is sometimes hard for some people to drink this amount of water daily. I propose today a way to reach this goal thanks to flavoring waters with fruit that will provide vitamins and certain benefits for the body. We may also use herbal tea and flavored Rooibos tea for warm waters. Rooibos is a red tea that contains no caffeine and is not exciting. It is rich in antioxidants, minerals (calcium, iron, potassium, copper, zinc, magnesium), has digestive, anti-aging benefits and maintains good blood pressure and a healthy heart. We use fruits rich in vitamin C and antioxidants to refuel energy. Once empty you can fill your bottles up to 3 times while still keeping the fruit aroma. However, be careful not to let your drinks infused too long especially when you use lemon because it will quickly reach a bitterness taste. Use organic fruit to prevent pesticides on citrus skin!
In what store your drinks?
Prefer glass bottles or plastic bottles without BPA to further avoid both external contamination of your water. I tested the bottles of my Equa partner who,in addition to providing bottles without bpa, offers a super stylish. What will give you a mad desire to drink water! Believe me, I have been conquered!
