Drinking purified water does a lot more than quench your thirst...it keeps your body in great working order.  There are many benefits to drinking clean, fresh water, and here are some of the best ones to keep in mind:

1. Drinking Water Keeps You Young: Drinking plenty of water keeps your skin moisturized and reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. If you don't drink enough pure water, your body will try to retain it in order to conserve resources. This retention makes your skin puffy and can even lead to bloating.

2. Drinking Water Helps You Lose Weight: Water suppresses your appetite, so you don't eat as much. Drinking plenty of water also prevents fluid retention, making you look slim and trim.

3. Drinking Water Helps You Build Muscle: Drinking plenty of water enables your muscles to work harder and longer before they feel tired, and this can help you build muscle. Make sure to keep hydrated throughout the day and not just as you are working out. Carry bottled water with you wherever you go, so your body is never thirsty.

4. Drinking Water Removes Toxins: If your body lacks water then your heart has to make an extra effort to pump fresh oxygenated blood to your organs, causing severe health issues.

5. Drinking Water Is Good for Your Joints: Your joints need moisture in order to remain strong and flexible, so that your movements are smooth and pain free. Ordering bottled water at restaurants instead of soda or alcohol is a great way to make sure you get water throughout the day, keeping your joints young and strong.

Answer:

Drinking Water Helps Maintain the Balance of Body Fluids. Your body is composed of about 60% water. The functions of these bodily fluids include digestion, absorption, circulation, creation of saliva, transportation of nutrients, and maintenance of body temperature.

"Through the posterior pituitary gland, your brain communicates with your kidneys and tells it how much water to excrete as urine or hold onto for reserves," says Guest, who is also an adjunct professor of medicine at Stanford University.When you're low on fluids, the brain triggers the body's thirst mechanism. And unless you are taking medications that make you thirsty, Guest says, you should listen to those cues and get yourself a drink of water, juice, milk, coffee -- anything but alcohol.

"Alcohol interferes with the brain and kidney communication and causes excess excretion of fluids which can then lead to dehydration," he says.

2. Water Can Help Control Calories. For years, dieters have been drinking lots of water as a weight loss strategy. While water doesn't have any magical effect on weight loss, substituting it for higher calorie beverages can certainly help.What works with weight loss is if you choose water or a non-caloric beverage over a caloric beverage and/or eat a diet higher in water-rich foods that are healthier, more filling, and help you trim calorie intake," says Penn State researcher Barbara Rolls, PhD, author of The Volumetrics Weight Control Plan.

Food with high water content tends to look larger, its higher volume requires more chewing, and it is absorbed more slowly by the body, which helps you feel full. Water-rich foods include fruits, vegetables, broth-based soups, oatmeal, and beans.
