Water is a winner, though!

I started a nutrition program about 4 years ago. Part of it was to up my water intake.

And yes, as a North American I was so used to not having enough water that I didn't feel thirsty any more...but it's funny how a lot of munchies disappeared when I upped my intake!

It sure detoxed the morphine/anesthetic headache when I was in hosp.

I agree with 1, 2, and 5, even though this is mentioned on Snopes. The percentages for less cancer and other illnesses, though, I would like to see documented.

However - 6 to 8 glasses a day sure can't hurt.
