Today we cover the good old H2O! From the benefits of hydration and risks of dehydration, we analyze some studies on water's effects on the human body. We assess the popular Watertok trend that started earlier in 2023 and how these artificial sweeteners are having an effect when they get into lakes. Finally, I share my tips for a more hydrated lifestyle.
