Tips and Tricks: Carry a Water Bottle

One of the most important things you do all day is drink water. It may seem like a small thing, but water is crucial for sustaining life. Because our body is constantly losing water, we continually have to replenish our water supply. After all, water makes up 60% of our body!

I've always been a water drinker. I like water and I think it's awesome that it's free and zero calories! But I have to admit that making sure I drink enough is a hard thing to do. If I'm not careful, I'll go several hours without taking a single sip before realizing how parched I am.

One trick I've used for several years is always keeping a refillable water bottle on me (I have the red one pictured to the left). I make sure to fill it 3-4 times a day. I find that if I carry a water bottle, I drink more. Especially when I'm away from home and running around town. It takes away the temptation of stopping and buying a sugary drink when you are out and realize you're thirsty.

So in order to stay hydrated, follow this simple trick: Carry a Water Bottle!
