I don't think that it's just a part of this diet, but is an integral part of a healthy lifestyle PERIOD. We read it all the time, hear it all the time...that we should drink 8 glasses of water a day. Why is it good for us? Our bodies are something like 95% water and just like a flowing river, that water needs to keep moving to stay fresh and viable... to keep our bodies functioning at optimimum efficiency, y'know?

LOL... maybe that's just a bunch of hooey....but I do know it works!!

Well, he**, now I've got more research to do....I gotta find the REAL answer to that question!
