Have you wondered how much water
your body really needs? Water is very good for us and your body needs it to stay alive. But do we really need 8 - 8 oz glasses a day? It depends.
I learned how to figure out how much water my body needs, not a general number for everyone.
Take your weight - divide by 2 and this is the ounces of water your body needs. So if you weigh 170 divide by 2 = 85 ounces of water per day.
As you lose weight the amount of water you need will go down. Start the day with 2 cups of warm or hot water. And remember your body does it's repair work at night so drink 2 cups of water before going to bed.
Water must be filtered. Reverse Osmosis or at least carbon filters until you can get the RO filter. Don't use the small bottles of water because the plastic is wasteful and fills our landfills. If you can't add a filter to your water supply then buy filtered water for drinking and cooking. Get the big bottles, like 3 - 5 gallons.
Herbal - green teas fine. Fruit juices, coffee, soda and other caffeine or sugary drinks do not count as water. I add virgin coconut oil to the morning warm water. Coconut oil is a great fat burning oil.
