Weight Loss And Water

YOUR BODY NEEDS WATER 
Even in the winter we need to drink water.

Water makes up more than 70 percent of the body's tissues and plays a major role in nearly every body function from regulating temperature and cushioning joints to bringing oxygen to the cells and removing waste from the body. It is second only to oxygen as a primary building block of human life. Every moment of every day, our bodies use water to per- form one task after another that is necessary to our lives.

Severe dehydration can affect blood pressure, circulation, digestion and kidney function. But on a daily basis, not getting enough water can cause fatique, dry skin, headaches and constipation. Hydration should be the primary focus of health. Proper water utilization is necessary for the accurate processing of 80 percent of the messages communicated between the brain and the body. Even a slight imbalance may cause confused electrical messages to misdirect the muscles of the body. Hydration is also responsible for proper functioning of 90 percent of the muscles in the body.

Through sweat, breathing and other excretory functions, our body loses about three quarts of fluid a day. Yet most people do not replace this lost water with water. Instead we drink soda, tea, coffee, wine and processed juices. These fluids contain a high amount of caffeine, sugars, artificial flavors and coloring as well as other unhealthy artificial substances. These fluids act as diuretics (pulling water from tissue, body organs, etc. then flushing water from our systems) thereby creating an environment of greater fluid loss. The result is that many people end up with chronic dehydration.

Becoming thirsty is nothing more than our body telling us to replace this precious liquid. But how many of us actually drink water?

Everyone should drink 1 ounce of water per pound of body fat, or at least 3 quarts per day. This will help with bowel elimination and help with weight loss.

Vitamin D for Women

African-American woman have higher rates of vitamin D deficiency associated with aggressive breast cancer than white women, a new study finds.

Researchers at the University of South Carolina studied 107 women who had been diagnosed with breast cancer in the past five years, including 60 African-Americans. Sixty percent of African-American women studied had low vitamin D levels, compared to 15% of white women.

“We know that darker skin pigmentation acts somewhat as a block to producing vitamin D when exposed to sunlight, which is the primary source of vitamin D in most people,” study author Susan Steck, PhD, MPH, professor of epidemiology at the University of South Carolina, says in a news release.

Vitamin D Deficiency Linked to Breast Cancer

All participants donated a blood sample, and vitamin D concentrations were measured.

The mean serum concentration of vitamin D was 29.8 nanograms per milliliter (ng/mL) in white women and 19.3 ng/ml in African-American women, researchers say in a news release.

Vitamin D deficiency was defined as serum concentration of less than 20 ng/mL. Aggressive breast cancer was eight times more likely among patients with vitamin D deficiency.

More Research Needed on Effects of Vitamin D Deficiency

The study, Steck says, provides a foundation for possible preventive strategies, but she adds that more research is needed to confirm findings.

All participants were between 33 and 84 years old.
Vitamin D levels are affected by sun exposure, dietary intake, supplements, skin tone, age, and body mass index.

Women need to take a supplement with Vitamin D because we do not have time to get out in the sun everday. Click on the link below to find a great multi vitamin for women.
