WOW!! I did not know that about adding a cup of water for every caffeinated drink you drank! Holy smokes!! I have a hard enough time getting my 8 in! Guess I need to make some adjustments!!

# Water is an important part of every healthy diet. At least eight glasses of water a day is necessary for your body to function properly.
