I'm stepping up my water intake.

I've read so many times that this is good for you, so I'm really going to try drinking more water. In addition to the water I was already routinely drinking during the day and the glass of water I drink before bedtime, for a few days now I have been drinking at least ten ounces (i.e. half a pint in my country) of water before each meal. And I'm swapping a few of what would normally be cups of tea or coffee and having a glass of water instead.

I used to think of tea and coffee as equivalent water vehicles, but I now realise that they are not. Maybe you too consider that a cup of tea or coffee or a glass of fruit juice/drink or a coke, etc counts as water intake? - Sorry: that's not so. - Water - the drink on which our species evolved - has got to be the drink most suited and healthy for our bodies and our brains.

You may like to try drinking more water yourself. - You may find as I have done that it helps when you have a headache or if you are feeling stressed. It's good for the digestion too. And helps you to think more clearly. Let's discover together what other health benefits come to us...(o:
