Goof for this cold weather!

This is devastating!

Death By Soda: ALL soda linked to early death - regular or diet. The study, one of the largest of its kind, tracked 451,743 people. It found that drinking two ...or more glasses of artificially sweetened soft drinks a day was positively associated with deaths from circulatory diseases (heart disease). For sugar-sweetened (regular) soft drinks, one or more glasses a day were associated with deaths from digestive diseases, including diseases of the liver, appendix, pancreas and intestines. Return to water. It’s what your body needs. No, it’s not sweet but you’ll get used to it. And please do not start purchasing water in plastic bottles. Purchase a stainless steel reusable water bottle and keep filling it up with clean water. If your tapwater does not taste good, or you don’t want chlorine or fluoride, then pick up a countertop filter or install a filter to your kitchen or office sink. Drink enough water until your urine is clear (not cloudy), pale (not obviously yellow) and that you’re going to the restroom about every two hours. That way you know you’re hydrated. If you are physically active during the day, then you will need more water than somebody who is sitting at a desk or sitting all day.

Know what you are putting on your body!

Something for everyone

You need 2-4 cups per bath.
