4 reasons to drink more H2O
Why Drinking Water Is Essential for Your Health
We all know water is good for us and that we should probably drink more of it. So why, then, do Americans find it so difficult to sip from what is arguably the fountain of youth?
Answers vary, but the fact is, one in 10 Americans drinks zero cups of water per day, according to a study by Dr. Alyson Goodman, a medical epidemiologist for the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Zero. She suspects that those who don’t drink any water (or very little) are getting it from other sources such as food and coffee, but warns this may not be enough.
“Many health risks decrease when you drink plain water,” says Goodman. Which is why, she says, the results are mindboggling.
Robert Eakle, CEO of Alkame Water, agrees: “Without water, no living thing can survive. It affects every area of our life and is an essential part of maintaining proper health.”

Enhanced Water vs Regular Water
However, not all waters are created equal. Enhanced waters, like Alkame Water, provide the body with more health benefits than regular water. Just take a look at how it can help:
- Balances Body Fluids: Your body is composed of about 60% water and performs vital functions such as protecting your organs and tissues, regulating body temperature, and carrying nutrients and oxygen to your cells—essentially keeping your body running like a well-oiled machine.
- Keeps Skin Healthy: Water moisturizes your skin and functions as a protective barrier to prevent excess fluid loss (think of it as a natural anti-aging cream). It helps keep skin fresh, smooth, and hydrated.
- Boosts the Immune System: Those who drink plenty of water are at a lower risk of getting sick. Crystal-clear, enhanced water like Alkame Water can help fight flu, cancer, and other ailments—especially with mild alkaline properties. Including ionized water in your daily intake can add antioxidants, improve aerobic capacity, boost energy levels, and hydrate your body more effectively.
- Helps Control Calories: While water alone isn’t a weight-loss solution, substituting it for high-calorie or sugar-filled drinks can help. Water removes byproducts of fat, fills you up to prevent snacking, acts as a natural appetite suppressant, and can even raise your metabolism.
Drinking water—especially enhanced or ionized water—can transform your health from the inside out. Stay hydrated, stay healthy, and give your body the boost it deserves.
