It's hot outside, stay hydrated with water! 

 Why should I drink water?

Water is vital to our health. It plays a key role in many of our body's functions, including bringing nutrients to cells, getting rid of wastes, protecting joints and organs, and maintaining body temperature. Water should almost always be your go-to beverage.

How much water should I drink?

I’m so glad you asked! According to the Mayo Clinic, men should drink about 15.5 cups (3.7 liters) per day and women should drink about 11.5 cups (2.7 liters) per day.

 Here are some tips to help you stay hydrated:

• Carry a refillable water bottle with you
• Drink a glass of water first thing in the morning
• Drink at least a cup or two of water with every meal
• Eat fruits and vegetables with high water content
• Track your water intake with an app or in your day planner
• Try flavoring your water with lemon, lime, or cucumber slices
