such a great question so i get this all the time like michael we already do that next here's the thing when you think about the fundamentals like what is the dna of wellness what can you stack all that on if you're deciding to optimize your health or start a new health program or any of that if you're not sleeping well if you're not hydrated and you don't breathe appropriately you're not going to be able to accomplish any of those goals so

Why not start with the basics?

And you kind of have to do them every single day.

So if I give you a couple of tips that you can just kind of smooth on into your routine and it doesn't take a lot of energy or effort, why not?

It's not the worst advice that I've heard.

Eight glasses of eight ounces of water puts you at 64 ounces, which is about three quarters of the way you probably want to be there, depending upon your height and weight, things of that nature.

I will tell you, though, that here's the thing that I think most people don't understand is it's not necessarily about amount.

It's about quality.

and timing.

So as an example, number one, what kind of water are you drinking?

If you're drinking water straight out of your tap, I would tell you that there are websites where you can put your zip code in and you can learn exactly what is in the water coming out of your tap.

To be clear, there's a lot of things that go into that water to clean it in order for it to be usable again.

So for me personally, I only drink filtered water.

Now, to be fair, you don't have to go buy some crazy double osmosis thing for your home.

Although if you do, you're going to get much better water.

I went out and I brought a Brita pitcher.

and take my tap water and I run it through there so that way I know that I'm getting decent quality water.

If you can, don't drink water in plastics.

There's a lot of data that's coming out about these nanoplastics that appear to leach into the water and then we drink them and they've actually started to find nanoplastics in utero babies now.

So we really want to keep that away if at all possible.
