Flavoring water, always carrying a water bottle with you, replacing milk and fruit juice with water during meals... are ways to help us drink more water.

The body needs about 2-3 liters, equivalent to 8 glasses of water per day to be healthy and balanced. According to experts, the total average amount of water taken into the body includes filtered water, fruit juice, milk and from green vegetables and fruits eaten every day.

Water helps support digestion and eliminates toxins from the body, helping to have brighter, more beautiful skin. In addition, water is a zero-calorie drink, so drinking it properly will help you lose weight.

Here are four tips to help us drink more water every day.

1. Make water flavorful

You can improve the boredom, blandness, and tastelessness of drinking water by adding a few slices of lemon, orange, cucumber, fresh mint leaves... depending on your preference to increase the pleasant feeling and help you drink more water every day.

2. Set goals and control every day

Are you sure you drink enough water every day? Set a goal to drink a lot of water and control the amount of water you drink to provide enough for your body. Write your goal on a small piece of paper and stick it somewhere you can see it every day such as your workplace, refrigerator, etc.

3. Always carry water with you

The biggest problem is that we forget to drink water. Try carrying a water bottle with you and taking small sips throughout the day. Carrying water around is a great reminder to drink enough water every day.

4. Replace milk and fruit juice with filtered water during meals.

If you have a habit of drinking juice or milk with your meals, try replacing those drinks with a glass of water. If you find it too difficult to change that habit, try drinking 1/2 glass of juice, milk or carbonated water… and replace the remaining 1/2 with water.
