I love water- looking at it, swimming in it AND drinking it

I used to not drink it at all...now I have a gallon jug by my bed or distilled water. If you get a kidney stone--you get to like water!! my doc told me "WATER IS YOUR FRIEND! but too much of anything is not good either"

I also retain fluid, but drinking water that is good for your body will not make you retain more fluid. Your salt intake can effect you more.

I feel I do not drink enough water and make an effort to drink at least 6 cups. It tastes good only when very cold. I have a water-retention problem.I take an herbal diuretic.

When my fiance was going through breast cancer, her nuclear doctor told us that the chances of getting cancer can be reduced by up to 70% by drinking eight 8 ounce glasses of water each day, and the Mayo Clinic has said that if you drink PURIFIED water you reduce those chances even further. Been drinking nothing but water ever since.

when I take meds I drink water because liver&kidneys; need H20 to pass drugs in both organs and people will have probelms with kidney going bad. if you drink soda must be without caffine and must be clear soda right from my Dr.who handles liver and kidneys

Can't drink the water where I live, too much chlorine in it, prefer Gatorade products for the electrolytes.

Water has no flavor, except Yuck. I even drink any medication with something other than water!
