Reason being, I stopped drinking fizzy drinks because it's giving me some health issues considering I drank it every day at one point.

Now, I don't really like water but I'll give it a go and get used to it.

Flavoured water can be just as bad as fizzy drinks like coke etc because of all the stuff it contains.

What type of water do you lot drink? (I know Tom drinks toilet water) And if we have any water experts in the house who like fitness, please tell!

And what would be the best bottled water to drink?

personally, I drink tap water, but let it sit for a little bit in a cup to dechlorinate before drinking, tastes better

I like the idea of squeezing a bit of lemon juice or apple juice, purely from fruit as well into plain old tap water

Tap water. I know how you feel tho, it is since a few years that I actually started to appreciate water again, before I drank shitty drinks most of the day..

It's the basic simple things we should enjoy in life. I think we think more about it as we get older.

I always drink 0,75L of tap water before a workout, been doing that for months. On average I drink 2 to 2.5L of water everyday. Gets me hydrated after and before my workouts and water just tastes really good imo. Drinking a lot of water makes your stomach more full also so you eat less and can lose weight more efficiently. Even more if you add physical activities.

tap water. Luckily in Latvia there's mostly hard water(high mineral content), so it tastes better than it would elsewhere.

The quality of water here is very good and has stuff added to it like fluoride which makes it healthier to drink than bottled water, so i'll drink tap water over bottled any day.

But I'll definately add ice! Any cold drink is better icy cold lol

I remember going to Turkey many years ago and being told to NOT drink the tap water haha. Been scarred ever since lol. Time to take the plunge into the land of health and fitness!

Haha, you can't drink tap water in southern Europe, the water is filled with chloride to get rid of all the bacterias

Oh I thought it was just sea water. I was only 10

Haha epic.

I usually drink water, coffee, lemonade, beer and milk.. and sometimes some juice. I almost never drink cola or stuff like that, I can't even remember when I had it in home for the last time.. months ago. Sometimes I drink cola at work, not much though.

Flavoured bottled water, tea, milk, orange/blackcurrent squash for me. But making the switch to tap water now

[MAF]mooman · « **Reply #14 on:** October 21, 2012, 07:06:33 pm »

Tap water is safe in any proper country, it's actually checked more than bottled water which is just a giant rip off that costs like 1p to make but is sold for 100x that. Plus they add fluoride to tap water so you'll get less cavities.

[FSR]Ush · « **Reply #15 on:** October 21, 2012, 07:59:41 pm »

But too much chloride makes you diarrhea

Britta filtered water ice cold is great, been drinking it for years, much better than buying bottled water and considerably cheaper.

I was also looking at one of those water filtering machines and pretty cheap also

When I drink tap water, it makes my head go a bit funny. Not sure if that's because my body never gets water?

dope meal man, plus if you have feel like a funny feeling when drinking water it means that your brain has been effected and reacted toward water (which is a good sign)

Tap water here ain't good. Bottled water is what we use

Welsh Border tap water is ok, although running the tap for about 20 seconds makes it taste better.

I drink under a pint of water before bed, I use to get headaches/sickness before in the morning (but drinking plenty of water, I'm never sick anymore).

[LSR]Cypher · « **Reply #26 on:** October 22, 2012, 10:40:23 am »

My choice of the water source depends on what I want: for tea/coffee I use tap water (after boiling it) and if I need some clear water (which I drink the most of the time) I buy 5 or 20L bottled water. Cola, Fanta and such on a rare occasion - I prefer clear water over it. Probably will buy a filter when I'll come back, undecided yet cause filtered water tasted "empty" for me.

in NL the toilet water is as good as the tap water.. saying you could drink it.. if it came out of a tap

[MAF]Jur1z · « **Reply #28 on:** October 22, 2012, 04:04:26 pm »

Tap water all the way

[MAF]MrHess · « **Reply #29 on:** October 30, 2012, 01:41:15 am »

bottled water, here tap water has a lot of chlorine and we've heard at home that it has a small fuel residue. Here bottled water is controled weekly by law, so quality is good, I also buy (bi-weekly terms, too expensive) okf aloe vera drink and sparkling water, generally voss (or perrier if voss is not available)
