MATTONI

HEALTH AND WATER

To keep the optimal levels of fluids and minerals in our bodies we need to continually refill them.

This means drinking before we feel thirsty. The sensation of thirst is the first sign of dehydration, and can be the result of physical activity as well as of simply breathing or sweating. Thirst is also an unnecessary burden to the brain and kidneys. The lack of water in our bodies leads to crystallization of biliary and urinary acids. These crystals irritate the mucosa, harm it and can be the source of stones, or the cause of persistent urinary and biliary tract inflammation.
