WATER PROVIDES MORE THAN HYDRATION

The liquid helps in weight loss and kidney stone prevention

Researchers, who reviewed 18 studies on benefits of drinking water, found the most evidence related to preventing kidney stones and helping people lose weight.

Drinking eight cups of water a day significantly lowered one's chances of getting another kidney stone, the researchers at the University of California San Francisco found.

They added that evidence from several studies suggested drinking about six cups of water a day helped adults lose weight.
