Hydration

The human body is made up of about 60% water. Therefore, hydration is a key part to living a healthier lifestyle and has so many health benefits that most people are not even aware of. If you feel thirsty it is likely that your body is already not sufficiently hydrated. A key part to hydration is to know that drinking juices, sodas, and coffee is not proper hydration. While those beverages might taste good, they are not giving you enough daily hydration.
