DID YOU KNOW?

Water/H2O: No water no life. As simple as that. Water is our most important nutrient, without it we would die in a matter of days. Both the human body and planet Earth are about 70% water. Sadly, fresh water is now in severe shortage and heavily polluted all around the world. Save it! It is precious!!

*Bookworm Tip: drink at least 8 to 10 glasses of clean fresh water daily. A little lemon & sea salt in a glass of water does wonders for our bodies.
