Water is a lot healthier than drinking Soda, and is so good for you. It helps keep a person hydrated in so many ways, and can be a life saver if you are out in the heat. I know water can be so bland tasting... That is why they have ways to fix it up as well. I have done Crystal light with it, etc. just to make sure I get a good amount of water in.

Yes, that is a powder mix that you can buy and add to your water and make it taste like something other than water. It is sold here in the US, and very popular especially for people trying to loose a little weight, or for people who need a little flavor to their water.

Hi krausehome! Yes, it keeps you hydrated. It really is a lifesaver. I do not know what is in water but it really works its magic in our body. What is Crystal light? Is that some brand?

Water...water... water...I'm so thirsty but I wanna finish this comment first of course. :-) I love drinking water but the cooler version of the tap water or it can be with a little ice.
Drinking water every morning before meals is good too.

Hello, maharlikah! Thank you for the effort of stopping by and answering my question. I have a friend too who drinks 8 glasses of water before he takes his breakfast. Quite a feat though, but I think it sounds good. Sounds healthy too. I tried it but I think I did it by surprise. Anyway, keep it up and have a nice day!

our tap water, here where i live is supposed to be one of the cleanest in Canada but my family doesn't like it because they say it tastes funny. well, i don't care. i drink a lot of plain water every day and really dislike drinking soda just because of all the sugar that is in soda.

Hi cher! I know, soda is filled with all these sugar. But people still love drinking it. Thank you for your response.

I love drinking water and can survive with water. Those fizzing drinks made of soda I try to drink as less as possible. From the finance point of view, I can spend less as water is much cheaper. From the health point of view, I will benefit more with water. So why not just drink water?
However for outing, I will have soft drink or fruit juice to mingle with friends and for fun.

Thank you for this, Madona. Sometimes, we have no choice but to drink sodas especially in socializing with others. I think it's a given that sodas are served during such occasions. Thank you for your response, especially the different points of views. Have a nice day!

I like drinking water. I was never really fond of sodas. I can live without it. If I want water with some taste, I'll just opt for iced teas, lemonade or just other fruit juices. They appeal more to me than sodas.

We have the same idea! I do that too. If water is not available, I opt for fruit juices than sodas. I think that's a healthier choice, don't you think? Kudos to us and to our healthy options! Have a nice day, autumndreamer.

Yeah, I agree with you. Drinking water is indeed very healthy and very refreshing to the body. It quenches our thirst. But with sport, it is another story. You drink mineral water because it has minerals, well literally. Just plain water is not enough when you do sports.

I like drinking water. Whenever I have dinner, I always pour myself a glass of water so that I could enjoy it along with my food. Soda is very tasty and sweet but I think that water tastes great too and since it's healthier, it's great that that I like the taste. Happy mylotting.

I drink a couple bottles of water daily. I find it refreshing. As you get older, you realize that water is the only thing that can slake your thirst. Soda is great when you're young but at some point in time, you will have consume so much of it, you'll find there are bad side effects like rotting teeth, reflux problems, etc , which is never fun.

Soda is prepared by pressuring carbon dioxide into water. This is how the bubble are developed. Excess of carbon dioxide can cause to many side effects. It can cause many gas problems.
So I think it is better to have the natural boiled water which we get from the earth's surface.

with out water life is nothing. soda is not good for health, you should drink more water in a day. water is like fuel for vehicle.

I agree with you. Water is indeed the fuel for our body. I don't even know why there are people who still prefer drinking soda than drinking water, even if there are articles published regarding the effects of it in our body.

I admit I'm not a big fan of water, but water's the best in quenching my thirst, especially on a hot summer day. I can only imagine the satisfaction that I get when I enjoy every huge gulp of it. Ahhhhh! Water is life. :)

I agree with you, katsantos. Water is life! I also like the feeling of water quenching my thirst. I cannot imagine myself not drinking water even for a day.

I like drinking water because it is the healthiest and safest among all beverages. Tasteless, unflavored, chemical-free.

I used to hate drinking water because just like anybody else, I find it tasteless. However as time goes on, I learned to appreciate the health benefits it can give us so eventually I learned to like it. Slices of lemon can give water some flavor so I try to add slices of it for a more refreshing touch to the drink.

As long it is cool enough to compensate the summer season.
