The importance of proper hydration
Name any recent health trend —brain hacks, new hormone tests, the latest time efficient exercise protocol…..nothing trumps hydration.
Why? Because every single cell in your body relies on hydration to function. In fact, every single cell in your body has a sodium-potassium pump which is beautifully designed to tightly regulate levels of sodium and potassium inside and outside the cell. If this isn’t a dead giveaway of the critical importance of hydration I don’t know what is!
More than just weight loss
The harsh reality is that many “rapid weight loss protocols” fail because they lead to weight re-gain. The reason? Most of these methods, while burning some fat, also promote large amounts of muscle loss. It may sound subtle, but losing muscle is actually a big problem for long term (sustainable) weight loss.
