Drinking plenty of water is essential to leading a healthy lifestyle. Since our bodies are about 60 percent water, which can be lost due to normal bodily functions, it’s important to replenish our bodies by drinking enough water throughout the day. How much is enough water? Some experts believe people should drink half an ounce of water for each pound they weigh, every day.

While drinking water is important, it can sometimes be very boring, as water doesn’t have much of a taste. Thankfully, you can liven up your drinking water with some easy additions, such as:

• Cucumbers

• Fresh mint

• Berries

• Aloe vera juice

• Herbal tea bags

• Lemons

• Limes

• Ginger

Many of the above ingredients also provide additional health benefits. For example, adding mint to your water will freshen your breath and may even treat nausea, while lemons and limes can help to boost immunity and ward off colds.
