Water is Essential To Fertility – Drink Up!

Drink Water To Promote Fertility
Water does all of the above as well as delivers nutrients and hormones throughout the body that are vital in becoming and staying pregnant. Staying hydrated while trying to get pregnant is also something that you have control of and you definitely have to take advantage of the things that are within control.
How Much Water Should I Consume To Aid Fertility?
A good guideline is to drink 1 milliliter of water for every calorie that you consume. So for example, if you are a 150 pounds, you would require roughly 2,000 calories a day to maintain your current weight. The amount of water you should consume is roughly 2,000 milliliters a day, equivalent to about 64 ounces.
If you weigh more that 150 pounds, are very active or live in a hot climate, more water will be needed to keep hydrated. 64 ounces is a good place to start and you can adjust from there.
The easiest thing to do is to keep a nice water bottle filled at all times that way you don’t have to search for water or go purchase it at a store. Also, start your day out with a nice big glass of water to get your body going.
Remember, sometimes fertility issues are out of our control. Drinking enough water and keeping hydrated is within our control so do what you can to keep hydrated for optimal fertility. Happy Drinking!
