3. WE ARE WHAT WE EAT!
The quality of our health is contingent
upon the quality of the building
materials going into our bodies.
Our bodies are
made up of what
we eat and drink.
The body completely regenerates
our cells every 7 years
4. WHY YOUR BODY NEEDS WATER

properly

Gives body cells shape, form and
elasticity

cells

5. Women / Men who had a high daily intake of water (5+
glasses) had 41% / 51% fewer heart attacks as those
who had low intakes (<2 glasses).
With those who drank other fluids (coffee, soda pop,
etc.), they found no protective effects of higher fluid
intake.
In fact, those who had the highest fluid intake from
other beverages (in place of water) had higher mortality
rates, especially in women. - Source: American Journal of

8. Exercise and Human Growth Hormone
Our production of Human Growth Hormone
decreases significantly as we age
EXERCISE promotes our internal production
of growth hormone.
âą By gradually increasing the intensity or
difficulty of exercise we are helping to
increase growth hormone production.
Very important to our health:
âą Helps keep our body fat low
âą Helps us maintain our muscle mass and
bone density
âą Just as important for women as for men
