This crucial step seems so simple and yet when about 90% of our clients come to us, they are actually dehydrated.
Let's take Mickey the Monkey (our Targeted Fat Loss mascot) as an example…
Mickey shows up to the studio and in our initial assessment he reveals that he has these symptoms:
In extreme times, he even has these symptoms: (These occur when your total fluid loss reaches 5%)
We tell Mickey he can overcome these problems by:
Before he was convinced to use everything we suggest, he asked us,
"I just want to get rid of my flabby belly!"
So we explained to him the "technical reason" that Hydration will help with Fat Loss:
In order to be hydrated, your body should be between 60-70% water. When many of our clients come to us, they are even as low as 44% of their body is made up of water. In other words very dehydrated.
Even if you are drinking 2-3L of water a day, you could still be dehydrated. I know that sounds crazy, but trust me.. it's true. This is where electrolytes are so important.
If you are dehydrated, your body will prioritise your really important bodily functions (brain, blood, etc) with any water you drink. Unfortunately, if there isn't enough left over for what we want, then fat loss simply won't happen.
Because of the way our water balance works, we need electrolytes to maintain our levels of hydration. Without enough electrolytes, our water balance gets messed up, and we end up dehydrated. This is a major cause of dehydration, even if we drink 'lots' of water!
Fat is a storage place for toxins. AND, once you have a fat cell, you won't lose it. You can only "deflate it". So the cell will still be in your body, and just won't be filled. Since fat is filled with toxins. One of the key ways to "lose fat" or deflate your fat cells, is to get rid of toxins.
Water is needed to flush toxins from your system. Without enough water in your system to function, it won't clear out the toxins effectively and a build up of toxins will remain stagnant in your system.
These toxins will lead to excess fat and so many other symptoms, like the ones listed above.
Mickey agreed with us that it was totally worth the effort to hydrate himself -- Not only for fat loss, but because he realised he could get rid of the other problems he was having as well.
He took our advice and bought a Genzon Water Filter to get his clean water and added relectrolyteME to effectively increase his levels of hydration.
Within a short amount of time… his hydration levels started to go up and his symptoms started to decrease. YEAH!
Not only that, but his body fat percentage is dropping every week!
