How Important is Water? By Dr. Jeff Langmaid Brandon, FL Chiropractor

Proper water intake is essential to health and healing.  The attached graphic shows just how important water is to our body systems.  If you happen to substitute coffee and soft drinks for water throughout the day then I suggest ​you start small.  I recommend my patients drink a glass of water with breakfast, lunch, and dinner to start.  Often, its difficult to cut out coffee/soft drinks/juice if you have been drinking them daily for years.  However, by starting with just 3 simple glasses of water per day, you will be well on your way to proper hydration.
