WATER
Water make up over 50% of our bodies! Two thirds of it is found within your cells the other third is found in your blood vessels, between the cells, tissues and organs of your body. Your body needs ten cups of water a day to stay hydrated. The exact amount you would need daily is dependent on your age, health, activity level, your living environment and your diet.
Remember, your best source of water is WATER. Not energy drinks,iced tea and definitely not soda!! If you don’t like the flavor of water add lemon, lime or other fruit to add flavor.
