TRUE. A healthy adult needs to consume 2.5 liters of water everyday to maintain his body’s vital functions. On average, food and the body itself provide only 1 liter. The other 1.5 liters of water must be supplemented by beverages such as water and Nestlé^® Pure Life^® is available in a 1.5L bottle making it convenient to track your daily consumption.

FALSE. Food only provides around 0.7 liters of water per day, which isn’t sufficient. Even the consumption of high water content vegetables cannot sufficiently hydrate the body, which means you must provide additional hydration through beverages like water.

TRUE. When water loss exceeds intake, the brain sends a message: the sensation of thirst. However, by the time we think about drinking, lack of hydration is already there. Therefore, it’s really important to drink before feeling thirsty.

FALSE. A glass of soda is comprised of other components such as sugar and therefore contains calories. That’s why consumption of carbonated sugar beverages should be limited. Water, on the other hand, hydrates without sugar or calories.

TRUE. Sipping small quantities of water throughout the day provides good hydration and compensates water loss as it occurs. It’s also much easier to drink regularly than downing a large quantity of water at once! Nestle^® Pure Life^® 1.5L bottles are ideal to help you ensure you're getting the right amount of water daily.
