Welcome back to another episode of health hack as I start a new theme talking about the importance of hydration, something that we so often take for granted. And so today, I want to share with you that your brain is largely made up of water and fat. And so hydrating by drinking half your body weight in water every single day helps give your brain what it needs. And this results in improved cognitive function, improved memory, it enhances concentration, and really results in optimal brain function. And all of this can then lead to improvement in mood and reduce feelings of irritability, because the positive impact on your cognitive function also is impacting your mood in a positive way as well. So drink half your body weight in water every single day.

About the Podcast

Don't Wait For Your Wake Up Call!
with Melissa Deally, Integrative Health Practitioner
As an Integrative Health Practitioner I have come to realize that we simply haven't been taught how to optimize our health, and that the average person has habits that are negatively impacting their health, due to this lack of knowledge, through no fault of their own. Public health and our school system simply don't teach us enough about nutrition, sleep, stress, gut health or how interconnected our bodies are! Modern life has us more sleep deprived, stressed out and the sickest ever, and I believe it is time to bring this education to you, so that you CAN be empowered in your health and you can then make the right choices for you and your family. The choices you make today impact your future 1 year, 5 years, 10 years + from now. It is never too early to start looking after your health, as Health is your TRUE wealth....without it what do you have?
