Welcome to my Thirty Days of Health Challenges post. These practices lead to better health. I chose the 30 best tips that I have learned since 1994 when I began my healing journey.
You can improve your health by using these Thirty Days of Health Challenges tips. The first one is the best advice that I got from my Naturopathic Doctor. When you first wake up in the morning, your body is dehydrated. Many people rush to their coffee machines or coffee pots. Acidic beverages are not what the cells in your body need.
Every cell in your body needs pure water so it can detox the waste from the cell. Your organs need water to function well. Water is the universal solvent. Without enough water, you risk having many health problems.

Health benefits of drinking water include the maintenance of pH balance, body temperature, metabolism, breathing, prevention of constipation, heartburn, migraines, gastritis, ulcers, kidney stones, cardiovascular disorders, rheumatoid arthritis, backaches and osteoporosis.
Every time I have had a headache, it is because I was dehydrated. How much water should you drink?
Ideally we should drink one half of our ideal body weight in fluid ounces of water daily. Do not count coffee, sodas or tea. So if your ideal body weight is 150 pounds, you should get at least 75 fluid ounces of pure water into your body. If you live in a hot climate, you will need more due to perspiration.
Our bodies are 60 percent water. We lose fluids daily through:
- Breathing
- Perspiration
- Stool
- Urine
If you will add 2 Tablespoons of Organic Lemon Juice into your water first thing in the morning, you will help your liver and body cleanse itself. You can also squeeze the juice out of fresh organic lemons if you prefer.
