Alarming statistics show that 75% of Americans are chronically dehydrated, with indications suggesting this likely applies to half the worlds population.

It has been found that for most Americans, 37% of the thirst mechanism is so weak that it is often mistaken for hunger.

Studies have shown that even MILD dehydration will slow down the body's metabolism by as much as 3% and that one glass of water will shut down midnight hunger pangs for almost 100% of the dieters studied in a University of Washington study.

It is also documented that lack of water is blamed for being the #1 trigger of daytime fatigue.

Other preliminary research indicates that 8-10 glasses of water a day could significantly ease back and joint pain for up to 80% of sufferers. Also a  mere 2% drop in body water can trigger fuzzy short-term memory, trouble with basic math, and difficulty focusing on the computer screen or on a printed page.

Finally, to top it off, drinking 5 glasses of water daily decreases the risk of colon cancer by 45%, plus it can slash the risk of breast cancer by 79%, and make you 50% less likely to develop bladder cancer.

So are you drinking the amount of water you should every day?
