What Are The 30 Day Water Challenge Rules?

The 30 day water challenge only has 2 rules. (i) You must drink 1 gallon or 3.7 liters of water every day for 30 days and (ii) you can not drink any sweetened beverages or alcohol.

In a sense it could be called the 30 day gallon water challenge.

Here’s the deal…

What Happens When You Take the 30 Day 1 Gallon A Day Challenge?

Water Makes You Smarter

Adding lots of water into your diet makes your brain react faster. This is according to research published in the Frontiers in the Human Neuroscience Journal.

Here’s the deal.

Your brain needs oxygen to work properly. Water is one of thee best sources of oxygen for your organs. When you drink more water, it also means you have more brainpower. Water helps you focus and think better. This will make you a more clever and quicker thinker.

The research is clear. Your cognitive abilities have the potential to go up to about 30% if you drink between 8-10 cups of water each day.

Water Will Help You Age Slower

Drinking large amounts of water will help your skin retain most of its moisture and renew the cells in your body.

What’s the best part?

Drinking water has also been shown to slow down the aging processes in your skin. This is because water helps to keep your skin hydrated and moisturised. There is some evidence that this also reduces wrinkles and helps you retain muscle tone.

For instance, the online newspaper Daily Mail published an article showing proof. The article shows how a 42 year old mother was able to look 10 years younger after drinking large amounts of water for 30 days.

The 42 year old woman initially began by drinking 3 liters of water a day to help battle digestion problems and headaches. However, she reported being genuinely shocked by the results after a 30 day trial. Her digestion issues and headaches disappeared. She was also able to overcome chronic dehydration.

Water Boosts Your Metabolism and Immune System

The HFR (Health Fitness Revolution) suggest that drinking 16 oz (i.e. 454ml) of water first thing in the morning can raise your metabolic rate by 24%!

Have you ever heard of a Slovakian proverb, which says “pure water is the world’s first and foremost medicine”? It’s so true if you think about it. Water is excellent at renewing the organs in your body. For instance, studies show that drinking more water boosts the performance of your kidneys and liver. These organs are the one’s that remove toxins, salt and other waste products from your body.

Your Heart Will Be Strengthened

Water keeps your heart healthy. Experts and researchers say that water dilutes your blood. This makes it less likely to clot.

Why does this matter?

Clotting or thickening in your blood is what brings down your blood pressure. Blood clots is one of the causes of a heart attack. However, consuming more water in your diet helps to reduce this from happening.

It has been said that you should always drink an extra glass of water an hour before bed. Doing this is enough to significantly reduce your risk of a stroke or heart attack. This is because extra water makes it easier for your heart to send oxygenated blood to your organs.

And if you need extra proof.

There was a 6 year study published in the American Journal of Epidemiology based on people who drank 5 glasses  of water a day. The study showed that they were 41% less likely to suffer from a heart attack by the end. This was compared to people who only drank 2 glasses of water each day.

Water is Good For Weight Loss

The first and most obvious fact to point out is that water contains 0 calories. If nothing else, that means drinking water will not make you put on any weight. Water also makes you eat less because water acts as an appetite suppressant.

Drinking More Water Saves You Money

Water is often 100% FREE! Even if you choose bottled/filtered water, it’s STILL cheaper than your high sugar and fat-filled latte!

Makes Your Bones Stronger

Water helps rebuild what has been called, your “shock absorber cartilage”. This is the type of cartilage that helps your bones move smoothly.
