And water?

Should we be drinking a lot of water or does it vary with each person?

Of course, drinking lots of water is recomended in general for health and it's certainly good to be in optimal health for NBE.

Yes, and especially with all the herbal pills we are swallowing and trying to digest you want to make sure you drink up (says this on alot of the pill containers actually).

Yeah, it helps absorb the pills faster and overall it's good for diet and losing weight and just health.
A good 8-10 glasses a day, if can then more is good.

I don't know if this is true but I heard that water can make your boobs bigger but I don't know. That may just be the water retention.

Do I have to drink a lot of water?

Hi. If I'm taking the herbal pills such as Fenugreek, Wild Yam, etc., am I suppose to drink A LOT of water along with it? Do you girls do that or do you just don't think about it?

I personally drink a lot of water anyway so I didn't increase my water intake any. I think it is a good idea to drink lots of water while on these herbs because they are pretty smelly and the water will dilute that smell. Several people have said they smell like the herbs or other odors on their bodies from the herbs and some of those people said they drink lots of water. I would think that if you didnt drink much water the herbs would be really concentrated and you'd probably start to notice you smelled like that. I dont really know though, that is just what I think.

I drink about three litres of water every day anyway as well, but I am one of those people who smell off the Fenugreek, although I could imagine that the smell would be worse if I didn't drink as much water.
I would just try to drink a lot if you can, try and have an intake of at least 2 litres a day, if you don't like the taste just put some squash in it sometimes or drink herbal teas without sugar.

Lisa,
Im wondering if I will begin to smell like Fenugreek at some point. I have not noticed and my boyfriend hasnt noticed and he once noticed when I was taking a prescription medicine that I smelled funny, so he'd notice.
Im wondering how often you eat a day? And what kinds of foods do you eat?

If you haven't smelt off it by now I don't think you will start to. I eat several times a day and mostly wholemeal foods, fruit, veg. and generally healthy.

If you drink a lot of water anyway that might be why you've never experinced the smell.

I notice many breast pills ask you to drink a lot of water, but not all of them. Should we be doing it?

I have always been a water drinker. Never taken pop or soda and occasionally taken caffeine free coffee or herbal teas.

Have just discovered after drinking LOTS and LOTS of water this past week, that I was never drinking enough before.

Since upping my water intake, my hair is shining, weight is falling off and skin is radiant and glowing. Even fine lines have disappeared!!! Have had probem skin too all my life so I really notice a vast difference :-)

I'd just like to suggest to the girls who are battling with weight gain and pimple and boils etc, to up their water intake for say a week and see if you notice a difference.

Would love to hear about your results :-)

Love

Thanks faerycat for the info! It is very interesting. I think I will up my water intake even more than I already am. Would be nice to see some results.

2 litres a day is the amount of water I've often seen mentioned in relation to NBE.

water is essential for your body to be healthy you should be drinking half your body wieght in oz a day; for example i weigh 98lbs so i need to drink about 49 oz a day at least (500ml bottle of water = 16.9 oz) i usually drink more than that during the summer so its not a problem

weather or not it's good for n.b.e i can't really say, but you should be drinking it everyday anyways.so it shouldn't be a point of concern.

Water is good for helping the digestion and also helps to eliminate toxins from the body.

Well some people have had results with Erdic, which is a really weak product but the program involves drinking a lot of water so I think it helps. I've really had to force myself to drink more as I'll just take a sip and put it down - I try to drink 0.5 litres water during the day at work, 1 glass of juice with lunch, 1 more with dinner then 1-2 more 0.5 litres of water in the evening. Not sure if it helps boobs, they seem to be growing really well though but I'm in the bathroom nearly every hour!

I actually find this easy. I liter is about 4 cups, so 2 liters is 8 cups. I drink a big mug of tea (decaf) in the morning, so there's 2 cups. I drink 2 cups during my workout at the gym. 2 cups for lunch. 2 for dinner. 2 in the evening. There's 10 cups or 2 1/2 liters. Spread out it's not too hard. I don't drink carbonated beverages. Just water, juice, or milk.

You should be drinking a minimum of two litres a day anyway, Erdic or not, just for your skin and general health. You need to re hydrate your body sufficiently or you will end up getting plenty of wrinkles. Your skin really needs the moisture from inside, and that is just one aspect, not to mention the rest of your body.
Herbs just work better when they get through your system properly, and the water helps.

well drinkin gjuice or milk is quite different from drinking water... i think when they say drink so much water they really do mean water. some non-caffeinated tea at best.

My milk or juice is not included in my 10 cups of water. It's easy when you spread it out.

water and metabolism

and another positive spin off from being well-hydrated is a better metabolism or at least I have read (in Spark People forums) that being dehydrated slows down your metabolism.
