More than half of our bodies are made of water, so it is clear why we need to drink water every day. Water is important for digestion, circulation, absorption, and transporting nutrients in our bodies.

We are all aware that we need to drink a lot of water. However, sometimes we need our water to have a taste, of course, without adding sugar. In the article, we offer ways that can give water a nice taste as well as nutrients.

Recipe #1 – Pineapple & Fennel

Bromelain is found in pineapple, and it is an enzyme, and it has strong anti-inflammatory properties. It helps your body heal quicker, and it eases the pains and aches. When it is combined with fennel, it has a nice flavor, and it calms the digestive system.

One study revealed that mice had lower inflammation on colon because of daily consumption of pineapple juice. Another study revealed that only 200 milliliters of pineapple juice per day lowers weight and improves asthma symptoms.

Here’s how to prepare your recipe:

  • Hot water – eight cups;
  • Pineapple chunks – half a cup;
  • Fennel seeds – a teaspoon.

You need to wash the pineapple and slice the skin. Take a container, fill it with eight cups of hot water, and add the pineapple chunks. When the mixture is cold, add the fennel seeds. Let it stay over the night. Chew or strain the fennel seeds.
