There’s more to hydration than "drinking a gallon of water a day".

This advice is counterproductive most of the time since too much water will dissolve minerals and dehydrate us.

Cellular hydration is a term which refers to how much water reaches and is utilized by your cells.

Being properly hydrated is crucial fro every aspect of our health.

Take free radicals for example.

An atom or group of atoms with an unpaired electron is called a free radical.

It can steal electrons from a stable molecule, creating a new free radical and initiating a chain reaction.

This electron-grabbing is called oxidation and can set up a chain reaction, creating new free radicals and damaging important molecules along the way.

Now if we are properly hydrated, the hydrogen in water will deactivate free radicals and clear them from our system.

Many studies have also found that people who drank hydrogen-rich water saw a 39% increase in their antioxidant ability.

Note: Of course, free radicals to a degree are needed for optimal health when derived from normal essential metabolic processes in the human body.

For example, the immune system uses the cell-damaging properties of free radicals to kill pathogens.

Moving on.

Now can we measure our cellular hydration levels?

Yes, we can through a BIA (Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis) machine which measures how well our body's cells transmit electrical signals.

A good reading will be anything from 8 and over.

Now let's see how to properly hydrate yourselves.

Let's start with the basics.

First we have electrolytes.

Without the proper amount of electrolytes, water will not be absorbed by the cells but linger between the walls of the cells.

Electrolytes dissolve in water and give it the ability to conduct electricity.

The most important electrolytes are:

1)Sodium

2)Chloride

3)Potassium

4)Magnesium

5)Calcium

We want to make sure we have enough electrolytes in our system so our cells can communicate electrically with each other.

Good sources of the above mentioned electrolytes that you can start with are:

-Coconut water

-Sea salt

-Magnesium both orally (not oxide) and topically

-Eggshell powder -

Raw milk

-Some alkanine juices (not for everyone)

You've heard that 90% of people are deficient in magnesium, but have you heard that 97% of peopler are deficient in potassium? Yes, 97% so please start adding the above foods into your diet.

Then manage your nnEMF exposure which all interfere with our cells natural electrical currents (you can also search how they loosen the cells' junctions).

The most common sources of nnEMF are:

-WiFi

-Cell phones

-Radio towers

-Wireless electronic devices

So, yes, grounding will help with cellular hydration.

Besides this electrons can also act as powerful antioxidants and grounding is completely free.

The surface of the earth possesses a limitless and continuously renewed supply of free or mobile electrons as a consequence of a global atmospheric electric circuit.

A direct earth connection enables both diurnal electrical rhythms are free electrons to flow from the earth to the body and neutralize the positively charged free radicals.

Of course, filtering your drinking and showering water is also crucial.

Tap water contains birth controll pills, sodium fluroide, pesticides, herbicides, chlorine, chloramine.

You name it.

It's the ultimate endocrine disruptor coctail and must be avoided.

An underrated hydration tool is also optimizing one's glycose metabolism (see previous emails) since when excess glucose builds up in our blood it will be excreted into our urine which will deplete fluids from our tissues (reason why diabetics are so thirsty).

This covers the basics.
