Got water?

This is a question we should be asking ourselves every day. The Food and Drug Administration suggests you drink 8 ounces of water 6–8 times a day to help keep your body functioning properly. Drinking a sufficient amount of fluids is important especially during the hot summer months.

In addition to water, milk and 100% juice are also good choices because of the nutrients they provide. Instead of apple and pear juices which provide few nutrients, try to drink vitamin-rich citrus, prune and vegetable juices.
