Texas Children’s is launching a 21-day water challenge for all staff starting Monday, July 20 to promote consuming the recommended amount of water during the dog days of summer.
As the temperatures rise, it is more important than ever to stay hydrated. Drinking enough water provides a variety of benefits including proper digestion, sustained energy levels and reduction of food cravings. It also prevents headaches and promotes a clear complexion.
The Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics recommends adults take in at least 64 ounces of water per day. Although it sounds simple, consistently drinking the recommended amount can be challenging.
That’s why we are encouraging all Texas Children’s staff to take the 21-day H20 challenge! We want you to commit to drinking at least 64 ounces of water per day for 21 days. Challenges are usually more fun with friends, so invite your coworkers to participate. Let’s rock the ripple effect and unite around this simple yet powerful wellness goal.
