nuun all day. The light, subtle flavor will keep you reaching for your bottle all day and with 0 grams of sugar and 17 essential vitamins and minerals, they’re a delicious way to drink your vitamins! …. and speaking of your bottle…

  1. find a water bottle you love.it really does make a difference (ahem… if we can make a suggestion…)
  2. find the right temperature. some prefer drinking ice cold water, others prefer room temperature. figure out what you like and stick with it.
  3. drink from a straw. try it. you’ll take bigger sips.
  4. try a reward. for example, you can’t have your morning cup of coffee until you’ve had a full glass of water…. and a bonus tip for when you’re traveling:
  5. bring an empty bottle with you through security.you can fill it up on the other side at drinking fountains or restaurants/cafes. flying is particularly dehydrating, and bringing an empty bottle to fill up will help you stay hydrated without having to purchase expensive bottled water.
