WATER!!!

Water is a transparent and nearly colorless chemical substance that is the main constituent of Earth's streams, lakes, and oceans, and the fluids of most living organisms.

MICHAEL SMITH:
It sounds too good to be true. Just drinking more water can help you lose weight. But that's what researchers found. Drinking as little as 1% more water means you'll eat fewer calories. You'll also benefit from a drop in saturated fat, sugar, sodium, and cholesterol. One extra cup of H2O in a day will save you 68 calories. And you don't have to do this every day to get the savings. Drink three extra cups, and you'll cut your calorie intake by 205. To put it in perspective, that's as many calories as you'd burn if you walked two and a half miles. Now, you can't just lie around on the couch all day and chug a gallon of water instead. You still need to keep up those healthy habits. And no word on what happens if you drink more than three cups, except for spending a lot of time in the bathroom. And this doesn't mean you can eat more, just that you're more likely to eat less. But that walk to the water cooler gets you a lot further than you thought.

6 Reasons to Drink Water:

  1. Drinking Water Helps Maintain the Balance of Body Fluids.
  2. Water Can Help Control Calories.
  3. Water Helps Energize Muscles.
  4. Water Helps Keep Skin Looking Good.
  5. Water Helps Your Kidneys.
  6. Water Helps Maintain Normal Bowel Function.

5 Tips to Help You Drink More

If you think you need to be drinking more, here are some tips to increase your fluid intake and reap the benefits of water:

Have a beverage with every snack and meal.
Choose beverages you enjoy; you're likely to drink more liquids if you like the way they taste.
Eat more fruits and vegetables. Their high water content will add to your hydration. About 20% of our fluid intake comes from foods.
Keep a bottle of water with you in your car, at your desk, or in your bag.
Choose beverages that meet your individual needs. If you're watching calories, go for non-caloric beverages or water.
