Hydrating snacks!

glass-of-waterI found this great Simple Mom post the other day on incorporating hydrating snacks into your diet as a way to increase your water intake.

Too often I reach for crackers or (arrgh) brownies — I’m a total carbhound when it comes to snacking. I try to drink lots of water and usually succeed, but the addition of an entire plateful of fresh veggie and fruit snacks would definitely boost my intake of not just water but also vitamins and fiber. I know this is just volumetrics or “filling foods” or whatever you want to call it, but I hadn’t thought of it as an actual water strategy before.

Food for thought, indeed….
