I'M A HEAVY DRINKER

CONFESSION, I LOVE TO DRINK!

Yes I admit it.  I love a good cold one and I dont reserve myself to just one drink.  Some may say I drink too much, but I don't care.  Sometimes, I drink about 8 tall ones a day.

Relax, Im talking about water of course.  Water is essential for the optimum performance of every cell in the body.

Suggestions vary on how much water you should consume each day but an easy way to remember is to go by the 8x8 rule. 8 glasses of 8 ounces. Drink more if you are outside in hot weather or exercising.

Other fluids count but try to get into the habit of drinking just plain water instead of empty calorie sweetened beverages.
