Staying hydrated in perimenopause and menopause is important for many reasons including:

• Moisturizing your skin, improving facial wrinkles, and preventing dryness and itching.
• Softening stools and stimulating bowel movements.
• Lowering blood pressure, improving blood circulation and reducing the risk of cardiovascular disease.
• Improving memory and concentration, and preventing brain fog.
• And balancing blood sugar.

Whip up a jug of this super hydrating detox water. Aloe vera and ginger help with digestion and gut health, and the lemon and cilantro help detoxification. It's delicious and refreshing... just what your body needs when hot flashes and night sweats are leaving you parched and dehydrated.
