I am amazed and grateful for all of the choices
we have in our country. Our society is
flooded with choices and with the right amount of money we can buy just about
anything we want. We’ve taken our basic
needs and through innovation and keen marketing took them to a whole other
level.
Take some of the basics, food, shelter and water
for example. For food you can find a
restaurant on practically every corner; grocery stores and farmer's markets everywhere. We have
gourmet food, fast food, packaged, frozen, and fresh. For shelter money can procure you in-town
living, a nice apartment for rent, a house in the burbs, a million dollar
mansion or a doublewide trailer.
Then there is water. Good old-fashioned water. In our society we took water, pimped it up and
added rims! You can buy all kinds of
flavored water, soda, juices, so-called juices (with 10% juice), Kool-Aid (we
still have that stuff), shakes, and energy drinks. We have purified water, carbonated water,
bottled water, carbonated bottled water, mineral water, smart water, smart
mineral water, carbonated smart mineral water, and bottled flavored carbonated
smart mineral water…ok maybe I’m stretching this a bit but you get the gist.
When you get down to the basics, what our bodies
really need is just water. We are made up of approximately 60% water and it is
essential for the proper functioning of every cell in our bodies. Read more
about the benefits of water and how much you should drink here: http://www.mayoclinic.org/healthy-living/nutrition-and-healthy-eating/in-depth/water/art-20044256.
So out of all of the abundance of choices, for my
health it’s simple, I still choose plain good old-fashioned water. The best thing about it is it’s cheap!
If you are looking to get fit and improve your
health and need accountability partners, then come join my team. Make the commitment and we won’t let you
down.
