4 Super drinks that you must know about/can change your life
When I was a kid, we only had tap water in ht e house and when we went somewhere, we could ask for a cup of water at the local cafe, that basically was tape water. If we were playing outside with our friends we could drink from a fountain that was always available near the play areas. We didn't have these amazing, healthy "Super Drinks".
But we all underestimate how important water is for us (the human species).
Some quick facts about water, that I'm sure you know... or not!
1 - We are like a walking bottle of water
That is right, our bodies are about 70% made out of water. So when you see someone that you fancy, you can say "hey... nice bottle!".
Take a look at this:
- The cells in our body are 90% water
