When it comes to being healthy, we all know we should be consuming plenty of water – so why do so many of us struggle to drink the recommended daily allowance? Whether you regularly forget to top up your water bottle or simply don\u2019t enjoy drinking water, there are ways to make sure you\u2019re getting enough H2O. We\u2019ve put together some handy tips on how to increase your water intake, add flavor to your drinks and stay hydrated all day long.<\/p>\n

Benefits of H2O<\/strong><\/p>\n

From clearer skin to reducing headaches, the benefits of drinking plenty of water are endless. As well as keeping us healthy and hydrated, maintaining regular water intake helps us stay alert and active throughout the day. Recommended water consumption is different for everyone, but there is a simple way to figure out how much H2O you should be consuming on a daily basis. An article published by U.S News suggests our water intake should be calculated by halving our body weight and drinking that number of ounces. That way, we can all make sure we\u2019re getting the right amount of water for our bodies.<\/p>\n
