But did you know that dehydration contributes to stress on a cellular level? It's true. Your cells, tissues, and organs need a consistent flow of water to function properly.

Damaging your cells and organs and leading to lots of problems. Fortunately, you can avoid all that by drinking 8 glass of water every day! And to make drinking water, and lowering cortisol, as easy and tasty as possible, I present to you: Stress Reduction Detox Water!
