    The More Water The Better!

    Are you drinking enough water? Water is a very important fluid to the body, with-out enough we can become dehydrated? Drinking water daily removes excess water weight? Did you know that? Drink To Your Health...

    I do drink a lot of water. I have lots of bad habits, eating and exercise (or lack of!) wise, but I drink plenty of water

      Yes, I agree, drinking water, is one of the easier ways to be healthy! I actually like water a lot, especially straight from the fridge. I know people who never drink it.
      I have to tell my clients to drink water, so it's a good job I practice what I preach

        I find if I keep sipping water throughout the day the day seems to go better. I feel more awake and alert. But sometimes, I just seem to forget. It has to be a conscious habit, I think.

          Note to oneself - drink more water. I have to confess that I only drink water in hot weather and it has to be very cold.

            Well, here I am disagreeing again. I drink very little and I've seen this asserted many times. It seems it all started in an American magazine with no basis in research at all. It's funded by the hydration foundation which, surprise, surprise, sells bottled water! The thirst sensation will tell you when to drink and while it's important not to get dehydrated it's not necessary to glug endless bottles of water - or anything else. I'll see if I can find the link.

                Minny, as far as I know, by the time we feel thirsty, we are already on the way to dehydration! All our cells contain water, we need lots for our bodies to function eficiently.
                Btw, my OH would be in complete agreement with you

                  I don't drink enough water in the winter because I hate cold drinks in cold weather. Now in the sunshine that is a different matter!

                            Thanks for posting that wonderful common sense article Minny. I never drink water but do drink a lot of weak tea which I have been told is just as good. Now I have read this Guardian article I feel even more relaxed about it.
