Benefits of Drinking Water




·         Our bodies are approximately 70% water, and nearly every aspect of our body’s function calls for fluid.  There is little data on how much water a person should drink daily.  The old saying, “Eight, 8 ounces of water a day,” may still be a reasonable goal.  It all depends on your health, how active you are, how big you are and where you live.
·         What type of fluid is best for you?  That is up to you!  Normally you get 20% of water from what you eat.   Water and clear sport drinks are best! But, be cautious of soda or other high calorie beverages. 
·         So, remember, drink your water and good luck on the Summer Challenge!
