When to Drink
Drink when you're thirsty -- that’s your body’s way of letting you know you need more water. But also pay attention when you go to the bathroom. If your p*e is dark yellow, your body might be holding onto water, and that can be a sign that you need more.

Have Some Soup
It’s mostly water, and there’s one for every taste. You can make broth from fish, chicken, beef bones, or vegetables. Add beans, greens, meats, grains, or veggies -- even pasta or eggs. If you’re under the weather, try some homemade chicken soup: You’ll get more H2O, and you might even shake your cold faster.

Why You Need It
Water keeps your body working the way it should. Your organs, muscles, and joints all need it. It also helps your immune system fight off germs, it’s great for your skin, and it cools you down when you’re hot. Reference: webmd.com/diet

Versatile Olive Oil
Olive oil is a plant-based fat, so it's a better choice when you're trying to lower your "bad" cholesterol than fats that come from animals.
