Yeah, I just came in after hours of weed pulling and pruning with a dehydration headache - I'm really bad about not drinking anything. Good reminder!

Just be a little careful about sweating heavily and drinking LOTS of water - add a little juice or electrolyte mix in as well. Drinking a really large amount of water can upset your electrolyte balance, and thus your heart/circulatory system. This is more apt to be a hot-weather problem for marathon runners, and major athletes than for gardeners, but....

Yes, I swear by a bottle of Fruit2O about 5 times a day! It is a terrific tasting bottled product that will get the water into me, as opposed to water from the PUR filter unit on our kitchen tap. BTW - PUR now makes a fruit-flavored water filter. Anyone tried it? I am tempted. Filtered water is fine and very refreshing when ice cold. Now I am wondering about the content versus spring water. This is a big debate. We need some science. Heart patients also need to practice a bit of restraint, as suggested. Robin near W-S, NC
