I want to make sure everyone knows that once you are able to add in sparkling water, it should not be used as a substitute for flat water.

Sparkling water should be a "treat" water, as in a replacement for soda, not a replacement for water. Nothing hydrates your body like water! Our bodies are made up of somewhere between 68-90% water-there are different percentages in the various locations. And, we must replenish that supply constantly.

Sparkling water is not capable of replenishing these fluids in the manner that flat water is.

So, please, remember to drink flat water-and dont count the water you use for your coffee and tea!
