Benefits of Proper Hydration
Keep Your Water Bottle Close!
According to the Harvard School of Public Health, experts recommend drinking roughly 11 cups of water per day for the average woman and 16 for men. And not all of those cups have to come from plain water.
Some can come from water flavored with fruit or vegetables (lemons, berries, or orange or cucumber slices), or from plain coffee or tea.
Professor Walter Willett says “It’s best to stay away from sugar-sweetened beverages when trying to stay hydrated. Even energy drinks and vitamin waters, most are loaded with sugar and not worth the use.”
This serves as a great reminder for us to check our labels before we choose!
Need an alternative to plain water? Try some of our favorites, like fruit infused water or Arbonne fizz sticks.
