Drinking water is one of the most essential elements of leading a healthy and fit lifestyle. Most individuals do not come close to drinking enough water. These people are fatigued, stressed and are unable to use their cognitive function to their fullest potential. These people tend to eat too much, exercise too little and are unhappy. We recommend that each person consumes at least 3 liters of water a day. These water infusions will help you WANT to drink more water and to stay away from sodas and sugary drinks that you should really cut out of your diet entirely. Just pop these fruits, veggies, and herbs into a big jar of water, let sit, and enjoy!
