It took me until age 40 to figure this out lol
Same... And it took 2 more years to realize how much water the body needs and how good it feels, when you're really hydrated.
Do you drink it pure or mixed? I often drink it pure
On the rocks
Chilled water is the best thing ever.
Reverse osmosis pure, room temp. Delicious.
Fun bit of info, according to studies, water has a flavor, of a sort, and other animals (jury is out for humans) are able to actually directly sense it. It seems to be sensed mostly by the acid-sensing taste receptors, but there may be more at work.

I always have a bottle of pure lemon juice at hand, and put a few drops in every glass. A slice would look nicer but itβs not practical for everyday use.
Not great for tooth enamel long term.
I donβt think I drink enough of it for it to be any worse than normal daily use. Though it supposedly helps in preventing kidney stones
