I grew up in a part of Idaho called Grangemont, and while working on our ranch every summer, I’d sweat for hours while taking care of the livestock, then get a headache that lasted for hours.

What's funny about that is that we'd get up at dawn to the smell of fresh coffee, and I couldn't wait to sip my coffee...but I didn’t think about drinking water until way later in the day!

By the time I finally did, I was so thirsty I could barely stand up, and my head throbbed like someone was jamming knives into my temples.

Interestingly, our farm animals were smarter than most humans when it comes to getting their water in. We never had to pester the chickens to drink from their self-watering can, or the horses to gulp from their trough.

After I grew up, left home, and went searching for a career, it became even easier to skip drinking water in favor of coffee, Diet Coke, and other beverages.

It wasn’t until I began studying nutrition that I learned the value of drinking enough water.

Knowing what I know now, I wish I'd been as smart as our animals with regard to taking care of myself.

I can't change the past, but I CAN do better in the present, and teach you to do the same.

So tune into this week’s new podcast, where Cari and once again get back to basics, this time by talking about WATER.

Even if you've "heard us" talk about this before, tune in. There's undoubtedly benefits to water drinking that you've forgotten (just because no one remembers everything they hear). It does WAY more than hydrate you.

(Hint: If you're trying to lose weight without drinking enough water, you could be putting yourself in danger.)

Plus, we've got tips to help you figure out how much water you need, and how to make drinking enough water easier for you.
