I usually am a soda drinker but since being sick I have hardly had any soda. I have maybe like 1 or 2 glasses a day. I went to the store and bought these sparkling flavored waters their 1 liter bottles and been drinking them quite a bit. I feel this is alot healthier for me then drinking soda. Is there something you have cut back on? How much water do you drink in a day?

Water is very essential and needed of our body. More or less 90 percent needed to make our body systems do its specific functions. You just can continue doing that, you will look younger and the skin maintains it’s radiant.

I average only 2 liters per day but I do eat lots of soup so I get extra fluid that way.

I am a soda drinker normally too but lately I have been drinking the green teas in a bottle. Their really good and a lot healthier for me, especially while being sick.
I love the flavored water too though, the kiwi strawberry is my favorite and the peach! Yummy!

I like those flavors too but when I got the ones I have they didn't have those flavors. My flavors I like is the raspberry one and the tangerine & lime. I don't like those green teas their gross to me.

I don't think drinking soda water on every day is a good routine for your health. As we all know that soda water is created by forcing carbon-dioxide to dissolve in water. It will create gas troubles. So try to get a good control on it.

I don't drink soda water every day I switch back and forth between that and plain water. I find that it upsets my stomach if I drink too much of it but it's a little better then drinking actual soda though.

I drink water whenever I get thirsty. I don't think it is necessary to drink 8 glasses a day and have read that it may not even be healthy to drink so much water a day. Thins out the blood. So, I just drink water whenever I need to. And even my doctor told me that it isn't necessary to drink 8 glasses a day, just to drink water whenever I am thirsty. She is a practical doctor and so, I appreciate her advice.
I don't drink soda very often and when I do, I prefer no-sugar soda. At least, I don't have all that sugar when drinking soda. I prefer ginger ale.
Filtered water is a good choice for drinking water.
