Can you drink to much water? And is it bad to flavor your water with limon juice or crystal light? I am trying really hard to drink more but it gets kind of old tasting after a while.

Thanks,

There is such a thing as drinking too much water. Do not worry about this, it is an insane amount and I have never seen anyone do it. Crystal light is crap and I would try to just add some natural lemonor lime if possible.

I bought a water bottle and add either lemon or lime. Much better than crystal light.

Pure bottled water and water using a Brita filter is the best. If you need flavor look for bottled water called "Glacial Ice". There is one with lemon flavor and it's fortified with calcium, vitamin b and c. And you know calcium is a much needed mineral especially for women to prevent osteoporosis later in life and natural bone loss that comes with growing older.

I agree about the Crystal Lite- you're way better off without it. Too many artificial ingredients going on. Natural lemon or lime is ideal. Herb tea counts, too! It doesn't contain caffine- which actually removes water from your body. Black tea (regualar AND decaf,) green tea, and white tea all contain caffine.
