Default About Drinking Water....

The following will surprise you... (got this in an e-mail)

One glass of water shuts down midnight hunger pangs for almost 100% of the dieters studied in a University study.

Lack of water is the #1 trigger of daytime fatigue. (Since I've started drinking more water at work, especially in the afternoon when I started to get tired, I found the water really does work!)

A mere 2% drop in body water can trigger fuzzy short-term memory, trouble with basic math, and difficulty focusing on the computer screen.

Drinking 5 glasses of water daily decreases the risk of colon caner by 45%, plus it can slash the risk of breast cancer by 79%, and one is 50% less likely to develop bladder cancer.

Are you drinking the amount of water you should every day?

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Unfortunately I don't, but I am drinking more than before...

I guess I need to get busy and start drinking water more.

Does it count if it contains lots of caffeine??

I am a coffoholic. I think I consume about 1.5 liters a day at work (1/3 gallon)...

I'm at the water cooler at work as I pass through the hall to get anything...even if they are those tiny cups, two are better than nothing!
