Drink Enough Water

How to up your daily intake

(HealthDayNews) -- If you're struggling to drink the recommended eight glasses of water a day, the Memorial Hospital of Rhode Island suggests you try adding one glass of water a day until you reach your goal.

Following a water drinking routine can also help. For example, make it a habit to consume one cup of water before and after each meal. Another way to increase your intake is to eat lots of fruits that have high water content, such as oranges, watermelon, pears and peaches.

Cut down on coffee, caffeinated soda and alcohol, which are all beverages that cause you to lose fluids.
