Drink Water First

Hi Everybody, if you have cravings to eat, but you're not really hungry, you may be thirsty! Instead of reaching for a snack, reach for a glass or bottle of water. Very often we misinterpret out body's call for water as a call for food. So before you reach for food, drink water first. If you truly are hungry, you will still be hungry after drinking the water. Drinking water throughout the day helps keep you hydrated, your metabolism running smoothly, your skin looking great, and your concentration level at its best. Even a mild case of dehydration can affect your memory. So to all my readers who are students with their SATs eminent, be sure you're hydrated for the test, and good luck!

  2. Hi, I love to drink tea as well and drinking herbal tea is wonderful for you. 8-10 cups a day may be a lot if your tea is caffeinated otherwise you should be fine. I am someone who likes to practice moderation in most things so perhaps you can switch up the teas so that you are not consuming more than 2-3 cups of a particular herb; perhaps add green tea and oolong tea to your regimen.
