should I increase my water intake?
YES!!!! Drink A LOT of water....
Just because. Our bodies are roughly 70% water. It is good for you and flushes toxins, and makes everything work properly. If you keep gas in your car you should keep water in your body. I only drink 3 fluids... 1 cup of coffee in the morning while downing my vitamins (sometimes have a cup at work), water all day/every day (I keep a 1 liter bottle with me at all times and refill as necessary, depending on activity level), beer on the weekends Fri or Sat depending on if I have to work Sat but never both days (I enjoy my weekend fuck-off time). You have to keep your liver clean.... LOTS of water. The cleaner your liver is the better. Your body will be able to absorb your vitamins better if it's clean.
Try to reduce sugar and sodium intake, eat healthy and be happy
If you smoke, stop or at least try to reduce. Exercise is also beneficial of course. The cleaner/healthier you try to live, the better you will feel in ALL aspects.
Shutting up now.... sounds to know-it-all or preachy LOL!!
Good Luck.
