The BEST Water for Your Health?! (Incredible!)
Drinking water is a great way to boost your health.
It’s good for your memory and mood. It can reduce migraines and prevent constipation. It can reduce sugar cravings and prevent bladder infections.
The list goes on and on.
But there’s a way to supercharge the health benefits of your water.
Doing so can help lower blood pressure, improve your skin, lower your risk of cancer, and more.
It’s easy to do… and it tastes delicious.
I’m a fan of cucumbers.
I like them on salads. I like dipping them in hummus. I like them on sandwiches.
But another way to get the health benefits of cucumbers is by adding them to your water.
Besides adding flavor to your water, cucumbers also infuse your water with nutrients like vitamin C, beta carotene, magnesium, and flavonoids.
All of these nutrients are potent antioxidants that have been shown to prevent damage to your cells caused by oxidative stress.
Oxidative stress is also known to contribute to cancer, diabetes, heart disease, Alzheimer’s, and more.
Cucumbers contain compounds called cucurbitacins and nutrients called lignans that have been shown to help protect against cancer.
It also contains a flavonoid called fisetin, which has been shown to help slow down the progression of prostate cancer.
Cucumbers could also help control blood pressure because they are a good source of potassium.
You see, when you consume too much sodium and not enough potassium, it creates an imbalance that can increase your blood pressure.
By boosting potassium levels, eating cucumbers can help restore a healthy balance between sodium and potassium, which can lower blood pressure.
Cucumber water can also do wonders for your complexion. In addition to helping your body flush out toxins—it contains pantothenic acid and vitamin B5, which can help prevent acne.
To make cucumber water, cut up a cucumber and put it in about a liter of water. Cover it and put it in the refrigerator for a couple hours to infuse the cucumber into the water.
Then drink up.
