Sea salt, lemon, beet, yum.... This is how we hydrate - all day long and with botanicals and minerals that help us absorb the water we are drinking. Did you know that many modern maladies are simply the result of chronic dehydration at the cellular level? WHAT TO DO: 1. GET A BERKEY - Berkey makes the best water filters out there and we really can't recommend them enough. From basic filters to cartridges that remove flouride, you are definitely investing health when you get berkey with it. 2. GET TO KNOW BEETS - Beets are filled with betaine (and lots of other goodies) that improve liver and gallbladder function. We need these fat-digesting organs, toxin-removing organs to be functioning if we want to feel good. Sluggish livers and gallbladders can really make us feel crummy. Beets get the motors running and the bile circulating! We love this beet powder and keep it on hand for hydrades, smoothies, and sauces! 3. LOVE LEMONS - These sour fruits are our tummies favorite fruit, hands down. Lemon water helps replenish digestive juices and keep our system running clean. 4. DON'T BE SCARED OF SALT* - Sea salt is PACKED with minerals that have been stripped from modern table salt. Lava, pink Himalayan, black - whatever floats your boat! Just makes sure its straight from the source and in its whole, mineral rich form. You can also add Trace Mineral drops for extra mineral-y goodness. *Excessive salt does lead to high blood pressure and stressed kidneys, but naturally occurring salt is self-limiting, meaning it is VERY hard to overdo. What gets people is all the crummy sodium added to processed food to add flavor to lackluster food. If you eliminate processed foods, you shouldn't have to worry about overeating salt HERB GIRL'S HYDRADEComments are closed.
