Easy tips to drink more water

Rise 'n shine baby! The morning is the ideal me-time moment of the day for me, I'm not a snoozer and like to start my day early with a fresh head. My feel good ritual? A glass of warm water with unfiltered apple vinegar or lemon juice. When I get home from our walk with Billy, I like to make something heart-warming to drink, like this ginger-turmeric infusion or fresh hibiscus tea with apple, orange and cinnamon . Also great to relax in the evening... I'm a huge fan of my super handy and versatile Quooker tap: regular water, chilled drinking water, fresh sparkling water, boiling water... always water at hand to quickly fix something you feel like!

Water is life and important to feel good about yourself! Adjusting small things in your daily drinking and eating habits can sometimes give you many health benefits! For example, it is recommended to trust your thirst feeling and then drink immediately until you are more than full. That can sometimes seem like a lot, but it is the best way for your body to absorb fluids. For example, I do not drink small amounts during exercise, but all at once after exercise. You can learn to listen to your thirst feeling! 1.5 liters of water per day is only a general recommendation, your needs may vary . After exercise, you need more water to stay hydrated than during a less intensive activity.
