INTERVIEW HIGHLIGHTS
A return guest, Gina Bria’s expertise is hydration. This episode will go deeper into hydration and how we can do it without guzzling eight glasses of water a day.

0:03:16.4 To begin, Sharon asks Gina the difference between real hydration and guzzling filtered water. They go deep into the important concept in hydration that water carries an electrical charge and that water without electrical charge is water that is not fuel for us.

0:08:43.4 Gina shares her research with the desert community where they were using foods to hydrate.

0:19:43.8 At this point, they delve into a lengthy discussion as to what fascia is and how it delivers water into our system and how movement is key in the process.

0:27:39.7 Now, she shares tips or recipes on how to drink the right kind of water by simply adding apple cider or lemon and using chia seeds for optimum hydration.

0:29:16.0 Now, they get into the movements ─ chin to chest, shoulder to ear ─ that we have to consciously do throughout the day to get liquid into our tissue and overcome fatigue.

0:48:48.0 Gina says that her work is to educate us so she created the Hydration Foundation, and her website is hydrationfoundation.org.
