  I'd have to admit it sounds very exaggerated... - Espen
 One glass of water shuts down midnight hunger pangs for almost 100% of the dieters studied in a university study.
 
 Lack of water is the no.1 trigger of daytime fatigue.
 
 Preliminary research indicates that 8 to 10 glasses of water a day could significantly ease back and joint pain for up to 80% of sufferers.
 
 A mere 2% drop in body water can trigger fuzzy short-term memory, trouble with basic math, and difficulty focusing on the computer screen.
 
 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 one is 50% less likely to develop bladder cancer.
 
 Are you drinking the amount of water you should everyday?
