Don't wait until you are actually thirsty
  The problem with water intake and thirst is that the thirst mechanism doesn't kick in until you've lost about 2-3 percent of your body weight, which is not really good for your body metabolism.
   
 
Drink plenty of water throughout the day
  Whether you are commuting, working at office or enjoying a holiday, always carry a bottle of water with you. While at office, try keeping a water bottle on your desk and take water breaks instead of those coffee breaks.
   
 
Don't substitute water with coffee or aerated drinks
  Coffee, soft drinks and alcohol act as diuretic beverages, which means they cause dehydration through increased urination.
   
 
Drink water even while exercising
  Don't under estimate the amount of fluids lost from perspiration. Keep a bottle of water with you while working out and take frequent water breaks. Your body cells need every bit of water to stay in shape.
   
 
Start and end your day with water
  Your body loses water even while you sleep, so drink some water before going to bed and again some when you wake up. It works.
