Getting enough water every day is important for your health. Drinking water can prevent dehydration, a condition that can cause unclear thinking, result in mood change, cause your body to overheat, and lead to constipation and kidney stones.

In reply to karen. Hi Karen! I love your strategy for making sure that your water intake remains constant. Like you, I keep a large water bottle on each floor of my house and drink water as soon as I get up. I also keep water in the car so that I don't forget to drink water while driving.

What helped me was changing my habits – and a filter. Nobody in our family liked the taste of our tap water. I placed glass pitchers and glasses in all places where I usually sit down like desk, sofa or garden and refill them every morning. Plus I start the day with a glass of water and drink some more before I go to sleep. And I refill the water bottle in my bag before I leave the house.

That’s exactly what it is, Kenya. Getting in most of your water in the morning, especially just after you wake up, will help that a lot.

I don’t know what it is about changing my eating habits to good ones, for some reason I drink less water. I always wake up thirsty in the middle of the night so I take water to bed with me. Otherwise I do indeed wake up with a headache and I recognize it as dehydration.

In reply to Christine Carter. Two thumbs up for clear pee, Chris! :-) But seriously, I'm glad that you do drink a lot. I'm always on the lookout for bathrooms in public places because I, too, drink a lot of water, so welcome to the club! LOL

I probably drink too much water, if that can happen! I am so used to constantly drinking it that if I stop for even a few hours, I’m PARCHED. I’m happy to report my pee is always clear.

Now, where’s the bathroom? LOL

I need to go OFTEN because of my water drinking habit. 🙂

I do know so many people who are not big fans of drinking water, so this is really an important read for those who need to understand how important a health factor this is. Thanks for always sharing your expertise, Alison!

I really like that idea of herbal tea over ice, Dana! You get a double whammy: both the water and the herbs. Good move!

I’m constantly reminding myself to drink more water. I have started drinking a glass in the morning before my coffee (sorry, that I’m not giving up), and it does help wake me up.

I also like to steep a cup of herbal tea and pour it over ice when I don’t feel like drinking water – then I get the benefits of the tea too!
