Get Your H2O

Your body is made up of 60-75% water, so it makes sense that this essential fluid must be continually replenished. Simply adding more water to your diet and daily routine can have immense effects on your health because it flushes out toxins, energizes muscles, curbs cravings, boosts brainpower, and serves many other crucial functions.

Coffee, tea, and soda don’t count, as they are all diuretics that actually dehydrate you. So be sure to drink lots of filtered water every day no matter how busy you are!

                                     HOW MUCH WATER SHOULD YOU DRINK PER DAY?

Between 2-3 liters is ideal, which is 64-100 ounces, or about 10 cups on average. The more active you are, the more you should drink.

TIPS:  

* Add flavors to jazz up your water like lemon, mint, berries or cucumber slices.

* Create rituals like drinking a tall glass each morning, and filling up your travel container 4 times a day.
