Healthy Eating Week

British Nutrition Foundation healthy eating week; 28th September to 4th October

Today’s challenge is to drink plenty – try to drink 6-8 unsweetened drinks a day.

Why is it important to drink plenty?

On average, water makes up more than half of our body weight and we need fluid for our body to work properly.

Water is constantly lost through sweating, breathing and using the toilet, so it is important to drink throughout the day to keep hydrated.

Being dehydrated can make it difficult to concentrate and may cause headaches and tiredness.
