Caicos Turkey	No, it's the best thing you could do for them. Not just your kidneys and liver either, but for your body as a whole. Water is necessary for your body to digest and absorb vitamins and nutrients. It also detoxifies the liver and kidneys, and carries away waste from the body. And when it comes to digestion . . . it's just not happening without water. Fibre alone cannot aid proper digestive function by itself. In fact, without water as its partner, good fibre goes bad, causing constipation and extreme discomfort. Keep it up! Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

If you pee a lot and the stuff you are peeing is white rather than yellow it means either: you are drinking durectics like alcohol or coffee OR you are just drinking too much water. So if you are p#ssing white pee and not drinking lots of coffee or tea it means you are drinking too much water. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Evening - Sip a glass of water before your meal with a dash of your favourite fruit juice for flavour. After dinner - before bedtime drink your final glass of water and sleep well!
