    ‘Thirst Quenchers”
Did you know that most Ameri
cans don’t drink as much water as
they should? Most adults need to
consume six to eight cups of water
daily. Water aids digestions,
absorption and circulation, trans
ports nutrients, builds tissues, car
ries away waste, and helps to
maintain body temperature.
Almost all of the body’s living
cells need and depend on water to
function.
While thirst is a fairly good
indicator that the body needs to
replenish its water supply, it is not
a perfect mechanism. By the time
someone is thirsty, he or she is
already dehydrated. This is why
we are advised to drink six to eight
cups of fluids each day, thirsty or
not.
Consuming the recommended
fluid is especially important for
the elderly in hot summer weather
because our thirst receptors tend
to be less acute as we age.
All liquids are not created equal
in their ability to satisfy our fluid

to the next generation of soil conservation efficiency.
The Soil Commanders are versatile tillage tools designed to meet
the needs of the mid-size farmer who uses a 150-200 H.P, tractor.
One of the keys to the machine’s versatility is that it uses
interchangeable shank legs and Individually mounted disk
assemblies instead of a disk gang. This makes possible a machine
with disk assemblies on the front and rear of the frame with chisel
plow or deep-ripper shanks on 15", 24”, 27” or 30” spacmgs

needs. Some beverages, such as
coffee, tea, and alcohol, actually
increase water output because of
their diuretic effect For example,
you must drink eight ounces of
water to metabolize one ounce of
alcohol. That cottonmouth feeling
after a few alcoholic beverages is
the result of dehydration. When
this is compounded by an already
somewhat dehydrated state caused
by hot weather, consumed alcohol
may lead to dangerously high
blood-alcohol percentage.
Beverage Ideas
Looking for summertime
beverage' ideas to quench that
thirst? It’s always best to start with
cold water. Recently, I have found
that many restaurants serve small
dishes of sliced lemon to iced tea
drinkers. A slice of lemon in your
glass of water can be very refresh
ing, and it sometimes masks any
off-flavors found in the water. A
slice of lime is preferred by some
people.
Carbonated water is the next
step to snazziness. Be careful of
the sugar content when selecting
flavored, carbonated water.
Consume cafleinated drinks,
such as the popular colas and iced
tea, in moderation. Consuming
large amounts of caffeine is not
considered healthy, plus it might
keep you awake far into the night
Fruit juices are chosen by many
people and are caffeine free. For
vitamin C, potassium, and folic
acid, orange juice or another citrus
juice is your best choice. Grape,
apple, and pear juice rate at the
bottom of die juice barrel in terms
of nutrients, but they are healthier
than sugar water. Blending diffe
rent juices can lead to new and
interesting flavors.
A summertime favorite is
“slushies” made in a blender with
ice and fruit My favorite is the
following.
Strawberry Banana
Cooler
V 4 cup unsweetened
strawberries
1 cup cold orange juice
4 to 5 ice cubes
Vi banana, sliced
Mix ingredients in a blender,
and serve at once, (contains 200
calories)
Be aware of juice sodas and
canned fruit teas. Most are loaded
with sugar. Nine ounces of
Snapple Raspberry Royale Soda,
for example, has eight teaspoons
of sugar more than you’ll find
in the same amount of cola!
Vegetable juice is also an alter
native, but it can contain as much
as 600 milligrams of sodium per
eight-ounce glass.
